Aboriginal forwards

Post by Broadie »

Okay - this won't really be new thinking to most of you, but why is it that when we come up against a team with an Aboriginal forward (Goodes, O'Loughlin, Farmer, Burns...) they invariably burn us badly?

So, who will play on Farmer on Monday (remebering he kicked 9 in a hlad against us last year - poor Tarks)?

What tactic can help us here?

those aboriginal forwards that you spoke of are all immensely talented, it seems as if footy is second nature to them. esp. Goodes. I was sitting on the half forward flank last Sunday, right in front of when he took that one hander, took off and handpassed it to O'Loughlin for a goal. I swear I've never seen a guy that's so big just accelerate like he did. great stuff, but we have our own great aboriginal forward - Neon!

as for Farmer, Lica's a good choice. Freeborn is also a good match up. against the saints, that little st. kilda twerp, Milne, was causing the C'wood backline all sorts of grief before Freeza went on him and shut him out of the game.
