“Aye aye, a murderous game.

War of attrition went well the way of the Tomb Kings. Early chips, lack of KO returns, and inability of Chaos to make any removals. It snowballed badly.

The strategy of using pieces to pin backfired, and we suffered an astonishing 63 blocks to our 39.

We enjoyed some smart chain pushing in T2. This was fun, and the highlight of the game. We didn't sack the ball from it, so it was for naught.

We start the 2nd half with 8 players, and finish it with 6. Just the 4spp, and a positional death. These are always tough games to accept.

Learnings:

I find this difficult, which is unfortunate. I will ask more seasoned coaches.

Perhaps the chain push practice is a nice thing. All turns kept under 4min (easier with less players to consider, haha.

Thoughts:

1) Will not win block war against such high strength, but what is the appropriate strategy? Screens and width?

2) 2nd half, perhaps should have played keep-away, looking for a draw. The loner blitz was unfortunate, but there was a heavy risk for some type of reward- breaking through a sideline.
