I got the impression we intentionally ignored midfield and had two bodies in there. The space was either behind (RHM) or the half space between their defence and midfield (Glatzel, McGurk or Austin) and they moved the ball on quickly.
It worked so well I have to assume it was a game plan as opposed to just lady luck
It was definitely tweaked from previous games and more extreme, but a lot of Gavball has used the wide forwards as the main outlets rather than the central midfielders. I can see it working in L2, but we have totally the wrong kind of midfielders for it right now - if we're going to do that, play two destroyer type midfielders who can just break up opposition play. There really is no point having a Devoy/McEachran/Cain/Aguiar type passing midfielder in this style of play - or certainly not two of them!
Like just from the players we have had this season, you could see a team that was:
Bycroft
Kokolo FBT McCarthy UGM
Khan Kinsella
RHM Glatzel Austin McGurk
I can see how that works, it's very much attacking down the wings but that's fine - that's all Paul Sturrock ever did and he did okay.
