Man-on-man is simply the worst defensive strategy there is with our list. Do it and we don't win another game.
We need to play the zone, but importantly, stop overcommitting 3 players to the same contest leaving 1-2 opposition players free to accept the ball and move it forward. _________________ Fighting against the objectification of woman. |

True, but the dons just had too many blokes way out on their own, too much freedom, its not rocket science, see a loose bloke, pick the bastard up. ![Idea](images/smiles/icon_idea.gif) _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

We hit critical mass yesterday. Every weakness that our team and individual players have were uprooted and put on full show by the Dons. They ran, tackled and pressured hard all night, we crumbled. Our slow mids couldn't catch them nor could break away. Our young defense is tired and with not enough experienced and fit support was crushed. No forwards inside 50 all night......htf can we score? Witts & White showed no strength in any key pack contests. Flat trackers we are with soft underbellies. Ball butchers everywhere, no class, speed, balls or heart. What the hell is going on? Do any of us even recognize this as a Collingwood team? Shameful performance but I fear plenty more will come. _________________ RED "BABY" CAVANAUGH: Didn't hear what the bet was.

Well said. But in your heart of hearts mate do you really think this club can get ahead with so many supporters who seem to relish mediocrity year after year? They must, because as you say, when you do critcise the club they throw that inane slogan Side by Side back at you. I am more than happy to accept the idea of Side by Side, but only if the players and coaching staff show a bit of gumption themselves.
Sadly I have seen this scenario played out every single decade since the 1960s. No sooner do we win a very bloody rare flag (1990 and 2010), and it's back to mediocrity (which seems to be our default setting in the modern era). I expect it will be another 20 years before we fluke another one too. ![Rolling Eyes](images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif) _________________ Rain or hail, I wag my tail |

And do you seriously think that what we as supporters do or do not accept has anything at all to do with how the club performs on the field?
You're just some random guy on the internet, just like me. You are completely irrelevant to Collingwood's short and long term form, just like I am. Get over yourself. _________________ "We ain't gotta dream no more" |

we haven't had the mud of mediocrity being flung for some time now. what a ridiculous notion it is that there is an acceptance of mediocrity by either the club or its supporters and fan base. spindog revels in these types of moments. _________________ Purveyor of sanctimonious twaddle. |

^ The only suckers to pick those teams are those who are brainwashing their kids to follow the same club as them.
No kid in their right mind would pick these clubs to follow right off the bat as they're failures!
Growing up in Footscray as a kid (70s & 80s) I remember a teacher asking me why I didn't barrack for Footscray since I was born & raised there.
My simple answer to her was: 'Cause they're shit!

How many times do we have to witness a Pies player standing 10m from an opposition player. Then to see the ball kicked to the opposition player who takes an easy uncontested mark. Seconds later the Pies player arrives to stand on the mark and flap his arms in the air. The same is repeated over and over again every game. When we have possession they man up on us, apply pressure and as a result our ball handling skill are appalling.
A member of our coaching staff needs to come to the conclusion that "IT DOES NOT WORK" and go back to man on man football. |
Kind of obvious isn't it? |
We went more man on man at times during the game and it allowed them to move the ball the length of the ground taking easy uncontested lead up marks. |

Actually not much difference in the profile of the squads. They were 5-6 months older, about +10 games per, had 1 less U50 gamer but + a few 50-100 gamers.
Sorry, I know that doesn't help, looked there myself ![Sad](images/smiles/icon_sad.gif) |

They took uncontested marks most of the time because we let them be by themselves. The ones that got bunt off on the lead only gave token resistance. None of those efforts were a legitamate attempt to spoil & turn the ball over. The effort just was not there. |
