This week I started another course through AFL Sportsready titled Advanced Certificate in Creating and Coaching AFL Game Plans again presented by Austin Stubbs of AFLHP.
We've covered a lot of different tactics used by various AFL teams with a lot more to come in part 2 this week but as the course fell on Grand Final week, we also had a good look at Richmond and Geelong, what they want to do and how they'll win the game.
1 tactic we touched on was lengthening the ground which Shane Edwards talked about post game:

This is definitely something that can, and should, be trained as there will definitely be times that you'll need to implement this in a game situation and instead of just bringing it out of the blue at half time in round 7 and expecting everything to turn out OK, make it something that your players are familiar with and can use at their own discretion to be even more effective.
