There is actually no pressure when you have a set shot for goal. The shot might be difficult, and a player might be tired from the effort to get the mark, but once the whistle blows it is simply technique and application.

Young did better than Pittonet in the last term.

Young has a better leap on him than Pitto.

Pitto will always be more susceptable to an opposition ruck who can still jump at the end of the game.

Pitto wasn't the problem. He did his job.

He got more clearances than the other 2 rucks combined (5 vs 4).
He got 21 touches vs Cameron 18.
He was leading contested possession getter for us with 12, only Daicos with 16 ahead of him. Cripps had 11.
He was carltons 4th highest supercoach scorer behind, Williams, Walsh and Newman.

If you want to try and exploit him/us, then you do exactly what collingwood did. Get a 'jumper' against him at the end.
Probably helps thats its a relatively new player who he hasn't come across before too.
