Strategising a Win Against GWS - Preliminary Final 2016

Re: Strategising a Win Against GWS - Preliminary Final 2016

Bevo said today on SEN that GWS plays a very similar game to Hawthorn, and last night was like a practise on how will play GWS. He did concede that since we last played them they have added a bit of contested footy to their style.

Loved that he referred to playing Hawthorn as being a 'good dress rehearsal'....I know he didn't mean it disparingly to Hawthorn...but still enjoyed the unintended shot.

The game from earlier in the year is on Fox Footy.

Collins was cooked from the first minute, we had no forward structure or pressure and Bonti had a very down day.

If we bring Men of Mayhem, we can disrupt their running game and send them into chaos. No Stevie J slotting them out of his arse, as well as coaching them on field also helps us.

Sydney also lost a couple of key players and their best inside mid was knocked out early.

My hope is we literally blitz them with inhuman pressure and stress them to the point they implode.

Watching the Sydney game - I thought the game was fairly evenly poised, even despite the two significant swans injuries - they were hanging in there. Then the ball comes in to Heeney and he gets mauled, no free kick, ball goes down the other end - goal. Centre clearance giants and another goal - and the game had completely changed.

As far as I'm concerned if Leon Cameron has them at 100% then he is a genius. This will be their 2nd game in 28 days, for me that's just too long a break. Physically it would be hard enough to keep it flowing but mentally to get them up is a big ask. I expect Geelong with experience to handle it better, a bit bigger ask for Gws.
