Art V Science is the big one, Bolton was very structured and had a "plan"
, Teague is a bit more free form, let the player show their skills and play with flair and aggression.

Just one more thing, Teague was the forwards coach, now he is the senior coach he is going to have the forwards play differently but you think he and Bolton were on the same page?
Indeed. I mentioned that in an earlier post. I like the approach and its clearly why they went Teague not any of the other assistants.
It would be wrong to be trying to find skeletons in a dark cupboard though. Both coaching styles have merit however I think Boltons requires a lot more of the mature polished professionals onfield. I certainly didnt hear Teaugue taking swipes at Bolts as some have suggested. All he did was confirm individual ideas and throw in some of the excited kind of talk Bolton started out with three years ago and each season.
I have no doubt that in the end Bolts would have got there but the longevity of the task was always going to make it hard to keep his job.
Now its all of no matter. Teague is it. I love what he has to say. Behind that easy going manner is a shrewd brain I feel and a lot of ambition.
Go Blueboys. Stick it right up 'em.
I think Teagues comment that he wants the "tough guys to be tough and the skilful guys to be skilful" might see LOB playing an entirely different role.
And now you are making assumptions about my comments
Intel? Perhaps it is opinion/rumour, which after passing through a number of lips, it could be Chinese whispers
You can believe anything you want, as can I

Neale is more high production, hard worker. Zorko is devastating when left alone.
For me, the decision rests in whether Zorko is capable of being tagged by someone else, as run with players can shut him right down. I don't have access to metres run statistics, but we have other players (Simpson, for example) who could sit on him, play a full ground defensive back pocket. Most of his most dangerous work is done ahead of centre, kicking at goal or into forward 50, and he's a notorious downhill skier when things are working well.
If we have no-one who can sit on Zorko, then Ed goes to him and Cripps can sit next to Neale, similar to how Brisbane compromised Rockliff's game against us last year. Cripps only gets the ball Neale gets, forcing the rest of their midfield to be more productive (although, this could have the side effect of improving the quality of their clearances whilst decreasing the number of them, as the rest of their midfield is younger but classier) in order to achieve parity in contested ball.
I will say, though, that this is a game we could win even if Bolton had not been sacked. Unlike most weeks, Brisbane do not outsize us chronically through the middle of the ground, their KPF are similarly young when contrasted to our KPD, and our KPF are sufficiently developed to stretch them. There is a reason they're top 8, but that is as much due to a good run with injuries improving onfield cohesion and continuous development coupled with a home ground advantage and an attractive draw. This game is not in Queensland, we're coming off a week to forget, there's a chance they'll get ahead of themselves and that a number of our players play for their careers, hoping desperately to impress with what time they have left.
We'll see. I go in without expectation, because even a simplification is a change to our system, and changes don't always come off. What it does make us is unpredicable, and that provides us an opportunity.

Love it chip. You got a huge uplifting drop chorus to complement those verses?

So basically when we have the ball (apart from newman) we're pretty bloody good, but we don't get enough of it. We know its the case but we really need to help Cripps out.

Far as that tells me our forwards are actually really effective. Just don't get it enough. Exactly.. Newmans had a few shockers :/. To be fair it is down his end a lot.

I thought it was a very impressive press conference but I may just be too easily impressed.
I liked the fact that he very neatly sidestepped the question on list balance and, whilst he didn't dance on Boltons grave he also didn't waste time with any platitudes toward him.
Interesting that, when talking about mentors he mentioned Walsh and Worsfold and no mention at all of what BB had done. I may be reading too much into it but I don't think that it's beyond the realms of possibility that there was a disconnect between he and Bolts.
He's talking a different approach to match days and strategies, it will be interesting to see if that approach is obvious to us all and, more importantly, successful.
Looking forward to tomorrow more than I have since round two.
And no, I wasn't in the sack Bolton camp.

I wouldn't mind backing our on ballers in against theirs, tipping Cripps to have an enormous game after last week. I wouldn't mind seeing Ed bully McCluggage for the day, he's been a seriously damaging player on the outside for them this year.
Something intriguing about Teague's role compared other interim coaches is that there's no need to tank this year, we've already traded our pick away. Compare that to Ratten or Barker with what was at stake plus many from other clubs and if a new coach took over they were usually there to help get as low a draft pick as possible. Teague is one of the very few that will have licence to get the best out of the players.

You can't kick goals when you're unconscious.
