Do our guys have any set plan on how to get the ball quickly out of our backline and into our forward 50?

I cannot remember the last time we were able to clear our backline from a behind easily and quickly.

Conversely why is it that opposition backlines can clear our 50 in seconds and have the ball in attack with ease?

Same crap, different year!

Wasn't it last season that we scored more goals from kick-ins than any other team?

Last night Collingwood had the zone set up and we just couldn't deal with it. Our Zone however was non-existent therefore Collingwood had an easy time moving the ball out of their own 50.

Such a shame the likes of Geelong and Hawthorn have moved away from good old fashioned one-on-one footy meaning almost every team is following them.
