like quichey said backmen also do try and get the ball. if that wasnt the case, it would mean only 12 players on the field are trying to get kicks! im talking about taggers who dont even watch the ball and their sole intent is on making sure another player doesnt get the ball. And there are a few of them around.

Why not accept the challenge of shutting someone down? You play for a team, for footy mates, for the win and every role given is crucial. At the end of the day who cares if you didn't have twenty touches if the end result was your tag being pivotal in your teams victory.


Or pivotal in your teams 154 point loss...

We had 3 players being tagged in the B grade and the Houghton players were under instructions not to worry about the ball, only the player. The poor blokes just wanted to play footy and tagging blokes only works if the rest of the team can match their opponents as well. If you're getting smashed all over the ground, what good is a tag going to do anyway?

Twisting words. Was speaking hypothetically, not referentially to our game. Besides, many of our players have lacked focus over the last two weeks and could take a leaf out of Schulzy's book.

Don't patronise my mates either, they are all out there to win, which begins by having the belief you can win. Nobody in that club would spit the dummy over being given any particular role.

Yeah he was, but there were 2 others over the course of the game.

Well, your runner came out and said specifically that one of your players was not to worry about the ball, just watch the player. Maybe i heard wrong though...
