I think the folk are frustrated with the slow negative game style more than anything.
The first qtr yesterday was a disgrace and we were lucky to not be down 60 at qtr time.
It is obviously designed by the coaching group to try and avoid blow outs but I would like to see us more aggressive especially at the start of games.
I disagree, I thought our game plan has very clearly been more attacking minded than in previous years rounds 1-3. it's simply an inability to execute the necessary skills that makes us look slower
you're right that yesterday was a regression, but I'm lead to believe that after the first quarter embarrassment we went back into our shells and were afraid to take the game on. which actually got us back into the game, but ultimately didn't lead to a win and wasnt pretty to watch given our poor ball use
I'm hoping for more aggressive play, and naturally plenty of mistakes, come the game vs Melbourne. If we can set the tone early hopefully we will have the confidence to play like we did in the 2nd halves vs Geelong and Essendon
