Also, the wings and middle of wall need to work out who sags towards these receivers. It depends on where other receivers are.Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03469814563421745485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18814552.post-42358432217016998682008-01-16T16:21:00.000+11:002008-01-16T16:21:00.000+11:00A question for you, more on defending a zone than ...A question for you, more on defending a zone than attacking it - say, for instance, that defence is running a pommy.<BR/><BR/>They have no short deep, so your number 2 way of attacking a zone is increasingly more viable. If the offence is putting sneaky hammers over the front of the wall, does that mean the weak side wing should run in to stop it?<BR/><BR/>Or is all this sneaky overhead swill my league team's just desserts for running pommy in non-windy conditions?<BR/><BR/>T.Tigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06825223426603644211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18814552.post-41001226504354743972008-01-16T10:12:00.000+11:002008-01-16T10:12:00.000+11:00A good handler isn't necessarily a good popper.

Having strong poppers means a) you are less likely to end up trapped on the line and b) you can move the disc off the line through popping.<BR/><BR/>With your strong forehand scenario, I haven't seen it as a big factor. But would probably put them on the left side.Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03469814563421745485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18814552.post-37772456583223867172008-01-16T05:30:00.000+11:002008-01-16T05:30:00.000+11:00Another question - say you have a right hander wit...Another question - say you have a right hander with a killer flick. Do you put them on the right side of the field to throw down the line, a harder throw? Or put them on the left, because then more of their throws to most of the field will be flicks?Farmer Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08173762436659557005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18814552.post-48702422405890781462008-01-16T05:27:00.000+11:002008-01-16T05:27:00.000+11:00Hey Owen, I like your two posts on popping/attacki...Hey Owen, <BR/>I like your two posts on popping/attacking zones. Good info in there. One thing I'm curious about, how do you normally call the poppers and handlers on the line? As in, would you put your best handlers in as handlers, or put them as poppers if you have other sold handlers? Having them as poppers might mean you could exploit breaks faster, but then perhaps less experienced players are getting trapped on the line.Farmer Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08173762436659557005noreply@blogger.com
