How does a coach fix the midfield if he can’t drop anyone to bring anyone in.
I keep saying it but the pieces are better than some around us. Sydney and Freo don’t have piles of star mids. They work hard and for each other. Get Steele to sacrifice his game to block and scrag like Horse had his boys do. Lock up and wrestle to free up different guys at each ball up. There is heaps of coaching you can use to improve it. Hickey is an okay ruck but his impact on last week’s game was huge. They work hard as a unit, it’s not about stats.
Richmond won a triplet of flags with a solid but unspectacular midfield. They decided to play as a team before coming good. Melbourne had a huge turn around when guys like Gawn decided it was about the side not the individual.
