Re: RD 1 - Blues Lose To Tigers (Aftermatch Angst & Teeth Gnashing)

For me a separation based on pace is fine. One has played less than one game the other ten years of footy.
When you are at the ground you see the off the ball efforts. Henderson as an example was pushing up and down the ground like a yo yo from defensive 50 to offensive 50. The punch to Menzel was a result of one of these shuttle runs after competing at half back and then again at half forward to create that goal.
You won't see that on TV.
Still I couldn't figure out how the Tigers had so many loose men all the time. We had issues manning up through the corridor and until we fix that expect our boundary game plan to continue.
