Our cross field long passing tonight

[mr chuckles]

Absolutely superb it's obviously a ploy as weve done it a lot in the last few weeks but tonight some of the passing was brilliant.

Luke O’Nein put a few glorious cross field balls in with his left foot as well as his right tonight!

They must be working on it in training, certainly more noticeable this evening for me.

It was class. Dobson and Power hit two cracking long passes in particular.

It is our main tactic.

The defensive three were definitely under instruction to move the ball quicker. We took the piss at times tbh.

And its working great

Easy against a side who didn't press us (sorry for mentioning the opposition)

O’Nien, Power and Dobson were consistently superb with it. Bailey Wright (I think) hit a peach of a pass for O’Nien too.

Hoooooooof!
None of them aimed at a big fellas head

The sideways long balls have been noticeable the last few games like. Always an added bonus when you’ve got a player with a cracking first touch to control it, both Hume and Onien fit that perfectly.

Was watching some Paul McShane vids last night

Was fantastic tonight seeing great passing from one side to the other. Hopefully we can keep it up against a team that presses more.

It’s been noticeable since we’ve been playing this formation effectively in my opinion which was Doncaster away back in December.

Definitely. Been switching it for weeks and it works

It's never easy to accurately pass a ball 60 yards tbf

 

[sick]

We've been doing it for the last season and a half.

Then why bother? Doesn't matter who the opposition is, they had the ability to play the long ball accurately to a team mate. It isn't easy man, it's a skill and our players are using it to good effect. Don't knock it, enjoy it!

Its not that difficult for blokes who ping balls about on a daily basis. Decent passes but it's far easier to do when the opposition barely close you down. They were incredibly poor tonight.

Fuck me man why are people so defensive? It's far easier to spray balls about when you're barely pressed. It's not that difficult to understand.

I agree in all the years I've been to the sol they were up there with the worst team I've seen
