No Oppo Supporters OPPOSITION OBSERVATION XXII

[Zoom]

Looks like i have some bed time reading. Yay. I don’t care about the results with us, it’s more about how we are going about it.

You don't take anything I say seriously anyway. Actually nobody does. Actually I don't even rate my opinion.

 

[Shazza_]

we should win the spoon on purpose this year and get a gun mid with pick 1 then win 4 peat 2020-24

 

[tugga]

Go on

Centre clearances are going to be very important and given that Nank won't be able to ruck every bounce, I fear we may be exposed in that area.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Essendong have gotten worse. Lel.

 

[PHX]

Essendon look as flaky and uninterested in defense as ever. Excellent.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Is Daisy Thomas male?

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Shiel can't win a hard ball best.

Centre clearances are going to be very important and given that Nank won't be able to ruck every bounce, I fear we may be exposed in that area.

Just to appease you a little, up to R6 last year, we used our 2nd ruck at just 21 out of 183 centre bounces.
In terms of the effect this had, when Nank was in the middle, we won 55% of centre clearances, while when our 2nd ruck was in, we won 67%.
As far as 'easy' clearances are concerned (the quick ones 6-6-6 will benefit), when Nank rucked we had 31 to our opposition's 23. With Grigg it was 3 to 1 our way.
Obviously this is a smaller than ideal sample, I'm planning going through all the games in 2018 (except the PF, **** that, someone else can do it if they want), and publishing the results here.

 

[TigerTime_89]

Essendon.

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Can't wait til we play the drugos.

Carlton are peaking at the right time. Should be primed for their GF in round one.

Who knows. It's just a scratch match.
Heppell and Zerrett both off this quarter and they are looking better.
I wouldn't gauge anything from any of these games other than individuals.

 

[Drofder]

Hah hah hah ...Bores-fold shaking his head and looking exasperated already.

 

[Tiges1229]

ground hog day scum do this every year win a pre season game here or there and media flogs jump on board, scum are back, watch out we are coming , lets get cooking, hows about **** right off you dumb campaigners.

 

[Calcium Man]

6-6-6 worries me a little, I'm not gonna lie.

Neither coach has given much away and just let the centre bounces be instead of rushing in wingers or players from the 50. It’s hot and a JLT team game. Things will change as coaches adjust to the new rules and see how they play out.

The one rule I wish they actually changed was incorrect disposal, every 3rd handball is a throw.

 

[Grockadoc]

Gee, Saad has poor peripheral awareness.

Racist.
