Hawthorns back 6 in last years GF
Stratton Lake Frawly
Birchial Gibson Burgoyne
That's a slow defence .
Your living in the old days were defence was all about a sides back 6 . Today defending is all about 18 players , not 6.
Pretty fast defence with good disposal, compared to ours
Lonergan --> slow and cant kick
Taylor --> fairly slow, good kick
Henderson --> fairly slow, average kick
Mackie --> fairly slow, very good kick
Bartel --> slow, cant kick
Enright --> fairly slow, average kick
Kolo --> fairly slow, average kick
we might be the best in the comp when the high ball comes in but when our midfield is getting soundly beat and the opposition has time to hit up targets we get smashed, even worse is when they apply a lot of pressure when we try get it out of defence
i'd rather we lost a bit of advantage when the high ball comes and have a better ability to get the ball out of defence easier
