The problem what I see about modern defensive systems is that apart from the teams who know how to play within it mainly Donegal , is that it is making defenders sloppy and have bad positional sense. MeathNo3 (Meath) - Posts: 23 - 03/07/2015 11:12:32 1746883 Link 0 |
The thing is,most of the elite counties have defensive/forwards coaches etc,but we don't! ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 03/07/2015 13:12:08 1746986 Link 0 |
We didn't need a defensive system last week....we lads tracking runners, it was westmeath we played, and were ten points up against...ya track the half backs and midfielders and we're looking forward to a Leinster final. Biggy has been tracking all year but he went off, tormey doesn't track at all from half forward so whoever thought he could play midfield needs there heads read. Flanagan or Rooney don't,harnan didnt.....all westmeath attacks came from that halfbackline/midfield area southmeathgael (Meath) - Posts: 879 - 03/07/2015 13:44:10 1747003 Link 0 |
Very True. A manager does not have to be an expert in everything but needs to know his limitations and get the experts in the specific area to come and do that job. Its very obvious that defensively MoD is out of his depth but surely he could have got someone in to over see that part. MeathNo3 (Meath) - Posts: 23 - 03/07/2015 13:47:21 1747006 Link 0 |

I just hope we are not talking about it at the end of next season. MeathNo3 (Meath) - Posts: 23 - 03/07/2015 14:29:29 1747046 Link 0 |
As things stand we will be talking about it, hard to see anything changing under present management. seadog54 (Meath) - Posts: 2128 - 03/07/2015 20:27:19 1747217 Link 0 |
I was at one of the coaching workshops and one of the present management team was asked what system are meath goin to play .he said and I quote that is the question. This was last year now I thought he just been clever not answering this so I wondered but thought no way he serious, but looking on what been playing this year we've had a mix of all sorts.which is not bad thing if your playing different teams. But if this the case we should have different plans when teams again us play certain ways.will support them to the last anyway but it not looking good at moment.
