Friskee Win HOORAY - Post game ANALysis

Friskee won a game!

Post game analysis time and my frisbitchings

Our Man offense was disgusting. It worked just because we were more athletic, but it had very little continuation and flow, no noticable stack or clearing...

Our Zone Defense?
Marks were a little dodgy, not always forcing properly, the wall was fine most of the game but the wings and deeps were having trouble with less talk than last week. So they didn't really know as well where to go, also we were getting broken a lot, when I was on mark i noticed a lot of high forehands, scoobers and mega low and wide breaking backhands.

I hate being broken in a zone, it means i have to turn all the way around and sprint to the furthest point. Luckily they didn't move it upfield too much with the swings thanks to our super wings.

So my question Is being closer or further from the disc harder or easier to break?

Closer:
  • Hand block chances,
  • Only chance at over heads getting blocked,
  • Physical presence creates feeling of pressure, whether is is actually there or not.
  • Pressure on openside throws (can contain to an extent)
  • Breaks don't need to be as wide to go around defender.
Further
  • No chance at handblocks
  • No openside pressure (not needed on sideline though)
  • More time to react to throw (blocks)
  • wider throw needed to break
  • Easy over head throws
  • I guess its more useful in wind where non perfect throws upwind on the sideline will be punished? especially with the wall and your position pressuring.
  • Much much less running!
Maybe something to try in the wind.
