What do I win...…..?????????? a SAFooty hat
I stand by the fact from watching and playing both sports Aussie rules footballers fail to adapt their tackling style to different players.
That's why Dusty Martin barely gets a finger layed on him......they all try and take him at chest high where he has the strength and technique to palm them off. FFS you have to go at his hips and get the head under the arm he palms off with and accept your not going to get the holding the ball but look to dispose him under pressure.
Ginnivan and Selwood just get the head low and aim at thigh level and you will make a solid tackle around the hips by the time they drop.
Not that ******* hard
