We have been playing style of play this year that will suit a wet track better than silky skills. Rain / wet weather footy is a big leveler, which I feel is better suited to us than Freo. My confidence is much higher with wet weather than dry. Mixing up our dynamics will make Ross Lyons counter tactics hard to pre plan. We just have to hold them for the first quarter as I feel that they will have all guns blazing for the first 30 min.
Therefore my game plan is.
Play Reid back for the first quarter. Leave Tippett with the smalls in the forward line... Goodsy on the ball for part of the first Quarter. Get him involved then kicks a lazy 3 for the day, up forward. Reid turns forward after the first quarter and marks everything. Hand passes to Jetta who goals for him.. Mike Pike to ruck till he drops. Sub out Mike early in the last and Tippett to ruck their tied players attack the last 20 min. 2 late goals put us in front and Swans win by 9 points. defensive mids who just keep stopping Freo's attack with our rebounding Half back line.. Rotating players through the half back line for pace. McVeigh is the general at HBF.
