In my opinion the talls shouldn’t be trying to mark the long bomb!
They should be punching it another 20 to 30m clear as a set play with runners running back!
The hawks would have been left with 15 irrelevant players some 30 plus metres behind the ball.
You have a 9m goal square, a torpedo of say 70m, and a punch on of say 20m! That gives us virtually ummm 9 + ummm 70 + errr ummm 20, that gives us 250m - oh thats too far!!
Ok got my calculator now, virtually 99m of coverage from the kickout before the Hawthorn zone has as chance to do anything.
Of course they'll do something to counter this, but in doing so they'll have to partly dismantle their defensive set up from the kick out!

Robert Walls used this tactic when coaching the Tigers. After a point we'd kick it long to Brendon Gale who would flip it along as one or two runners came past. It seemed to work well for a while.

Or you just get Newman to kick in with a barrell that makes it to the middle of the ground.

I cant remember anything working at the Tigers while that half asleep bearded tosser coached us.
