After yesterday's center bounce clearance special game analysis post, we dove deeper into round 9 in our next 2 posts.
The Dogs have now scored 60pts in 2 out of their last 3 games after being one of the lowest scoring teams in the AFLW so far this season - albeit against Collingwood and Essendon - but it shows the capacity to score consistently if they play in a manner that allows them to, which they usually don't against the better teams.
The Bombers have been ravaged by injury but have also had enough time to work forward from that as they mostly happened very early in the season with scores of 8, 22 and 10 in 3 of their last 4 games they clearly haven't, and playing with 1 or 2 extra defenders all game doesn't help either.
Adelaide did what they had to do against the Eagles who are your classic mid-tier team with a record of 5-4 with a % of 117 - on an upward trajectory but just behind the top-tier of the middle but better than the bottom tier but tracking nicely overall on the whole.
We'll find out more about Adelaide v North Melbourne this weekend,not that they'll win but in how close they can keep the margin.
Geelong will probably fall just short of finals this year and but there's a slate of middle team games so but should be the bounce team next year with a middle 6 draw at best and some players back who haven't/won't feature this year.
GWS and Gold Coast each need a pre-season exclusively focused on going inside forward 50 and then converting!
Today we look at:
- Bombers Not Numbering Off Once the Ball is Cleared
- Bombers Poor Spread and It's Domino Effect
- Adelaide Not Cutting Off Stoppage Exits
- Geelong Inside Forward Kick
- GWS Going Corridor
- Gold Coast Not Identifying/Utilising the Outnumber Advantage
- Gold Coast Poor Use of Space
