It's no 20 and 3 though18 disposals, 10 marks and 1.2 would be a pretty good game for most players, I reckon
Oh you mean the Jack Watts double?It's no 20 and 3 though
Now that is the holy grail of performance
Our zone defense was also too slow to adapt when a turnover occurred, you could tell in the first game, that's why Dunny was cracking the shits. You'd watch our players press up into the high zone when we had the ball, we'd turn it over at half forward, and noone would push back hard, leaving dunn the only player in the backline watching an army of saints stream forward.Good question. I think the biggest issue we face against the Saints is the high pressure you apply and your speed going back the other way. I don't think we need to match your speed (Although ours will improve next year if we can get Hunt/Kent/Salem/Stretch into the same team) as the Swans have smacked you two years in a row despite being a slow side themselves, but we do need to improve our skills under pressure.
I've said it before and will say it again, both of the 2016 games when it was clear you guys had a run on in the 2nd quarter we needed to identify that and shut the game down (Which is very easy to do at Etihad, Saints did it for years under Lyon). Instead of doing that we just kept trying to run through your press which I put down to inexperience because clearly that isn't going to work. We are also a stronger clearance side than you and the more stoppages the game has the more it'll benefit us.

Viney and Vince on the bench is a luxury.
Our midfielders are now better than St Kilda. Adding Jordan Lewis will do that. Where the problem lies is in the Saints' tall timber. We just don't have enough legs to cover Riewoldt and all of McCartin/Membrey/Bruce/Hickey. We need to play control ball and not allow the over-the-top goals that killed us in '16.
You guys have the best young midfield in the AFL.
I wish we had the saints outside pace and class
Nick Riewoldt has the class we needI'm only okay with this post as a collective of a team and not a single player

Do you guys think that Goodwin will add any changes to your game plan during the off season? and do you guys think there will be a strong focus on getting run and spread out of the contests and try to either match or go against St Kildas spread?
If it was on the MCG I think we could easily match St Kilda with the squad we have now.
I think on the contrary, at Etihad, we need to slow it down and think our way through St Kilda's pressure instead of playing on and running into trouble.
The only way you guys score against us is from turnover goals over the top. If we can control the ball more instead of rushing and turning it over then we should have a better shot at winning.
