[QUOTE="bazza, post: 2779215, member: 8440"] Exactly right. I do think tactical coaching is a bit of an issue. I think more and more teams are getting tactically better, and I feel we're not moving with the times as much. Perhaps Bennett is reluctant to change his coaching style, and out of all the coaches, he's probably the one who likes to focus on his own team the most, rather than on what the other team is doing, and I can't fault that at all since it has made Bennett so successful over his coaching career, but I still think there are areas in the oppositions game we can exploit and turn to our advantage. Our mobility and attacking ability is something which sets us apart from most teams, but for whatever reason, we sometimes play an over simplified style which makes it hard to showcase our strengths as a team, and instead tends to play into the oppositions hand. We seem to lack a bit of foresight. A game of football is played over 80 mins, and we need to build and make tactical, yet deliberate plays at the beginning of a game which will help us later on in the game. We don't need to score every play, but we need to build pressure. By building pressure, especially early on in a match, it ensures that when we do score, its because we've applied so much pressure, that the opposition just couldn't sustain it and it becomes physically very draining, as well as emotionally and mentally demoralising. It's why I'm not a huge fan of taking the penalty shot at goal, especially early on in the match, because it avoids building pressure, as well as allows the opposition to rest and reset. Instead, It's why in the beginning of the game, I love getting some kicks away early in the tackle count. Early kicks ensure the winger is up in the line and its easier to find space in the backfield. It also sends the message to the wingers, that If you stay up in the line I'll kick behind you, so then the next time they prepare for the kick, and drop back, and it leaves a lot of space on the edges to capitalise on. Also, most teams are bigger than us, so why not use that to our advantage. Keep the ball in play, make their forwards work in defence, and then turn their big guys around with an early kick. Muscle up in defence and restrict there go forward. After a few of these sorts of sets, their forwards are out on their feet, barely getting back on side and you've nullified their physical advantage and swung the game in our favour. it's when you up the ante with ball in hand. Quick footwork around the ruck as well as late offloads, followed by long shifts out to our speed men. Soon enough you're slowly, but surely breaking them down over the course of the match, to a point where it can be hard to recover from. [/QUOTE]
