tactics vs illawarra

[millersnose]

if i was raper....

defence compressed and rushing

if it gets wide so be it - tell peachey to put some effort in

its semi finals - slow it down lay on the tackled player longer and hope the ref doesnt penalise too much

markers must work

attack - run wide gas is not a great defender - throw it around and hope for early breaks - this will tire their big forwards- there is little point in the bash it up the middle tactic that has failed this season

rough barrett up - he loses his cool

 

[carcharias]

bung on the stink right from the first tackle...it's our only hope.

 

[newman]

Play dirty. Fire them up, make them lose their cool.

Bomb at the posts, it worked for Joey.

Gang tackle Gaz. Even when he doesnt have the ball.

i heard through good sources you might get a call up Millers, we are short on front rowers!:lol:

[Thomo.]

[da_sharks]

i say pressure there front and wait for barret to choke like he has in past finals...

Coopers outside defence is suspect. I be putting a few grubbers amongst their backs too.
I hope we come up with play similar to when we beat Manly. I've just got my fingers crossed that Raper is holding back heaps (that he only tested in that game) and that it will all be unleashed in the finals. That's my hope.
I think that we'll have the same old players in the same old positions with the same old tactics and cop the same old flogging. That's my thoughts.
I hope my hope overcomes my thoughts.

 

[pogo]

if the body language of the players and the coach on saturday night was any indication the season is over.

raper looked like a rabbit in the spotlight when the cameras caught him.

 

[millersnose]

all games are winable and loseable pogo

illawarra have only won 3 more games than us

in their minds this will be a soft game

My thoughts too!

I really hope we throw it around and get those quick play the balls going to tire them out. We'll achieve nothing ramming it up the middle!

The stink to open proceedings is also a good idea...get 'em off their game ;-)

 

[Thomo.]

wasn't colin best a choker in finlas footy for us? if so, at him!

 

[Snoop Shark]

The only positive i can see out of this game is this:

The drags back 3 dont have that much finals footy experience. If we target them all day we could be onto something.

I find a lot of teams direct their attack to colin's wing. I say we should go Wes' wing. Test this little s*** out i say;-)

Most important tactics, don't start the game with kimmorley or Dykes.
Dont play sullivan.
Don't play Simmons.
Lock up the ruck & the left side & just play footy.

 

[da_sharks]

your forgetting one more...

take peachey off...

 

[Isurus]

Yep - don't make it a bashathon up the middle. Go wide and test Gas and Bests defence. Colin is going great but is prone to defensive lapses.

Niggle, niggle and more niggle for Barrett (assuming Clark is not the referee)

CORRECT!

 

[millersnose]
