Didn't Buckley say before our game against West Coast this year that there style was reminiscent of what we produced in 2010/11?

I'm sure he did and I'm certain he also said we were confident we knew how to beat it.

Well we didn't get close in that match but more importantly I thought our "press" of 2010 was meant to be dead and obsolete.

Doesn't seem like it.

Back to the future we go in 2016.

They refer to it as the web.

Carey was talking about it this morning and said it was quite complex and difficult to understand and he had limited undistinguished of how it changes shape.

When we played them they called it the bubble.
How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say?

The press being "dead" is one of the dumbest myths going, every team plays a version of it.
Well done boys!

I hope you mean like the Eagles. We're definitely building a team to play a similar style. Plenty of run and pressure.

we got close beating the top sides this year playing that game style but we weren't clean enough with our disposal unfortunately.
no second chances
