Month: July 2024

Bearing some ridiculous change in form and upset wins and what-could-actually-happen losses for teams around them, the Pies look out of contention for the 8 in season 2024. In 1 of his press conferences last week, Fly said something along the words of “we still need to be who we are”, and this weeks game...

I went to the Sydney/Saints game last weekend and while I was waiting for my mate t get there, I took a few snaps of how Sydney set up for different scenarios in the game. The photos aren’t of the greatest quality as I was also stuffing my face with an overly-expensive and underwhelming chicken...

In part 2 today we look at: Sydney coming forward to defend to regain possession Saints out-working the Swans during transition offense Sydney feeling the St Kilda pressure and going against what they normally do Sydney setting up with multiple lines in front of the ball...

My Swannies have trailed off in recent weeks but never fear, this is the worst time of the season for a team clear on top with plenty of games to go but not wanting to try and maintain finals-winning form the entire time so I think we’ll be OK, especially with Parker and Mills to...

Don’t let his eating habits distract you, the kid is a beast! As great as Daicos was just minutes earlier, having 3 possessions in a center bounce clearance...

Today we finish off analysing the Suns/Pies game where we look at: Maynard instantly looking to go corridor from right on the boundary line The extreme pressure from the Gold Coast midfield, giving the Pies a taste of their own surge mentality Collingwood kick out going on the attack without hesitation Pendlebury’s transitioning from defense...

Nothing to take from the Sydney/Freo game this week as the Dockers took pretty much everything away from the Swans over the weekend and apart from some individual brilliance from McLean and Blakey, we don’t have the chance to steal that at the end like we did. Instead I have some clips from Brisbane/Melbourne, with...
