2024 Training With The Ooze Crew

[Ghost of Punt Road]

Teams know to flood back against us, leaving few options especially when the kicker is under pressure. Lack of composure plus inexperience doesn't help

I don't know why we don't just kick it out of bounds in the forward pocket at that point. Better than kicking it to their player by far. Gives you time to set up defense at least.

We would often kick to the pocket when Riewoldt was the only tall forward, in hope of a throw-in. Those were the days when we had Rance, Grimes and Vlaustin marking everything in the backline because of the pressure we'd put on their kicker, just as teams against us do now.
