Different tactics

I was getting Golden Gaytimes when I heard the crowd roar. I knew it wouldn't be good news.

So you didn't even see it, I would have left the gaytimes in the fridge and just left lol

There's never a bad enough situation to leave Golden Gaytimes in the fridge.

Just briefly back to topic before we return to JTs gaytimes...

I think Robbo is a top coach in many ways but innovation and daring are not his strong suites. I can see him ending up in an administrative management role in the game where he would be excellent.

I love to see the unexpected play used occasionally, like Cronk does for Storm...Hasler and Bennett teams at times too.

The short kick off or drop out , chip chase or long kick for specific runner....offload most rucks as per Broncos against us...the list is big.

I don't know if it's our halfback being pretty conservative in his approach to the game that keeps us measured, or Robbos coaching style.

Even Smithy tried some different things, albeit mixed success.

Always frustrated me about Easts.

That Brisbane game was still there for the taking. Fergusson was making Jack Reed look like an u6s player and he would have scored all day. But then he just stopped.
The ball didn't come to him and he just got lazy

We were all over them in the second quarter.

It's that bloody 2nd-half fade out. I don't know if it's a mental thing or physical. I remember a few games late last year where we led 12 nil early, and then got trounced. Not just last year also. Some very important games including a GF or 2.

Melbourne have done that 3 times this year, smartest team/coach to play the game by far.

They only scored 2 points in a recent game.
