It looks obvious over the last few weeks that the game plan has changed .. And for the better I may add.
We have become more direct, kicking long and running hard through the midfield. The Wins over West Cost and Richmond showed this.
We also saw it during the 3rd Qtr on Saturday against the Pies. We looked like that side from 2005 that we all loved so well.
So what happened in the 4th Qtr on Saturday ? ... We went back to the defensive minded, cheap possesion gathering, chip kicking, afraid to back ourselves mind set.
Why ?
When Fraser kicked that goal in the opening minute of the 4th Qtr, we looked home. We were ready to finish the game off there and then. Collingwood kick a couple of goals and we were gawwwwwn. You, like myself knew it. We didnt even look like kicking a goal as we went ultra defensive again.
The goal that Alan Didak kicked, after Dal stuffed the kick in was disgraceful ..
I just dont get it. Do you think the players are sub-consciencely doing this, or it is something that Lyon is instruction them to do ?
