I don't see this at all in the game plan we had in 2016. We where actually the number one side in the AFL for marks inside 50 for most of the year, if not all of the year. This doesn't suggest we had a game plan of bomb it long to Hawkins. We had a very good game plan around forward line entry and versatility.
In low intensity games it worked alright, not in big games.
We were crying out for a CHF and a bit more defensive pressure at ground level.
