Geelong are we on show right now with their clearance game + their transition handball game and are putting the league on notice with their offense.
In their 7 games this season they have scored 27 (in their only loss, albeit a bad one v North), 100, 64, 83, 57, 90 and 82 in a 6-game stretch where they're averaging 79pts/game at a total of 476pts, the highest 6-game scoring stretch in AFLW history (North are 2nd and 3rd with 475 and 474 points respectively from last season).
It shoes the rare offensive air they are occupying at the moment.
If you watched Geelong v Hawks last Thursday (seems a lifetime ago!), or even if just caught up on some of the rounds highlights then you definitely 1, if not both, pf these transition plays by the Cats, with both resulting in goals.
For both plays I'll show you the clip, provide a whiteboard set up of starting positions and running patterns - I also label each player in the actual clip.
To run this at training set them up in the starting positions from the 1st image with the only instruction being to handball chain as far as you can and when you can kick it then it has to be a shot on goal and see how far they can get.
I would suggest shortening the lengths of these plays compared to what I've laid out initially but then stretch them out as they get better at maintaining the extra number/s at the ball and keeping the handball chain alive.
