Look you blokes, if you want to sum up RolY's coaching style, you need to look no further than what he did at the start of the game on the weekend when they all went to have their photo taken in the centre at the Colinseeum. His true coaching style came out as he got himself seated up for the moment and was summed up perfectly. I'm sure Shane has a copy of the footage somewhere.
That being said, I have to take my hat off and say there was some distinct changes to the way we entered the 50 this week, and we really did look to pick out a target better, and we didn't just receive an outgoing ball and bomb it back in straight back from where it had come from. We did move it about, and enter from a different angle. Made me think RolY was reading Dockerland and had a look at how hockey is played. The mid field really picked up the slack and ran this week and applied way more pressure. As much as I hate to admit it, some one did some coaching and drilling this week, and I guess that RolY has to get the credit for it. So well done to who ever got that done.
The only thing I wished we added to this work above, was a plan where we have at least two people staying behind in our forward line and leading out from somewhere near the square into different areas so they can take a grab with their out stretched arms in front of them, instead of this overrated kick it over the heads of a forward running backwards while fighting off a defender style of play. There is a line from the Castle about the Trading post Ad that is probably due about now....
