Strategy What's your crazy coaching move v Freo?

Whenever one of our guys mark the ball, form a ring of 17 players linking arms around him. They can't be legally tackled (holding the man) and so can casually escort said player to the goal square for a certain goal. Repeat.
Hands down, post of the year. Brilliant :)
 
Great thread guys one of the funniest I've read on BF!!

But in all honesty I think it will be a bit closer than you think. Your mob have shown some good form and it's on your home deck. Should be a ripping contest.

Don't you patronise us.

I look forward to a press conference from a bamboozled coach who cannot understand that despite winning all the important categories - we still got smashed by 40 points.

Wait that was last year.

Oh don't be like that.

Taylor Walker, Eddy Betts and Dangerfield tend to trouble us a bit. I can see your mob giving a good account of yourselves.
 
I'd like a couple of our guys to start a bit of push and shove before the opening bounce like freo did to us in 2013.

Let's stop being soft and set the tone early.

I know it's not the crows way but it could prevent another slow start.
This happened on Saturday. There was at least 3 spot fires before the bounce all started by us. Didn't seem to work funny enough.
Thats crazy.

Did any of them even try that against that Mumford beast.
We won clearances quite easily. It was just that we reverted to that stupid hack kick out of the contest to nobody which resulted in a turnover.

There'll be a few moments in the game where we'll show something nice. You'll smash us this week mate. There's not a lot we're doing right at the moment.
 
Don't play a ruckman at all. Drop Sauce down in defence as the spare man - or up forward. Play 4 midfielders instead - their mids are going to get first use anyway, so let Sandi get the tap and then we'll outnumber them 4 to 3 on the ground and can at least nullify them to some extent.

Use Matty Wright rugby line-out style and midget toss him at the footy in ruck duels.

make the players do penalty push-ups in game for missing targets.

and lets go really crazy by not hand balling backwards, and kicking long to targets.

You guys should also feel free to try any hair-brained strategies this week. Maybe rest Sandi and play our old mate Griffin instead!

To counter, our team would use their 18 players to form a ring around yours, then stop dead. If you release the ball, a Freo player is going to be closest.
 
I think they need to tell VB to forget about touching the ball (not that he does anyway lately ) and just wear Fyfe like a glove.. be his shadow, use some Bernie vince tactics on him, step on his toes, pinch him, wrestle him and get in his face. just run with him! a massive hard tag!

id drop Jenkins and bring in big O'Brien, play him at CHF and to combat Sandilands in the forward half and to swap with Jacobs when Jacobs needs a rest.

Id bring in Jpod to play the Justin westhoff role in defence.
