It bothers me too at times, it appears they can get caught up in playing on without looking first. I also am getting very pissed off with this shepparding the man on the mark crap.

All it does is create a loose man for the other side further up the gound.

Its a tactic to get over the zone. By running that 10-15-20 metres you can get it over the back of the zone.

The cats and hawks use quick handballs in succession forward to break open the zone.

I agree, there is no big secret to getting over the Zone, if Harry can run 10 meters to block a shepard he can run 10 meters to create space and get a handball. Get the basics right before trying the pretty stuff....its not rocket science.
