Could anyone who sees our training from time to time elaborate on how much time is spent on the one percenters
and basics..Things like sheperding , tackling etc..
Would be even more interested in the opinion of someone who also sees training of other clubs from time to time as a comparison..

Much has been made of our lack of pace , skill , talent but in a situation like ours where we are rebuilding from scratch
i would think getting the basics right would be first priority..Are we doing that???
 
Last nite i did see a few good shepards occuring, the chasing and tackling was poor. All the boys learnt last nite was that when the bulldogs ran, we couldn't catch em!

They do a lot of 3 on 2 or 3 on 5 type drills with a lot of sheparding,talking,blocking and the like.Plus a fair bit of game type drills which is pretty much playin footy,as well as a lot of tackling bag stuff.To some it up the training stuff covers every aspect of what needs to be covered, they just dont have the ability to do it under match presure at this stage ,but the coaches are doing averthing possible to improve.
