This risky press is giving me the heeby jeebies.. Are our players just dumb, or selfish or what?
It's not risky at all. The only reason players are caught out of position is because Geelong is able to transition the ball faster - but they'd be able to do that anyway regardless whether we pressed, went zone or man on man. The umpires are right when they say it makes transition through the corridor easier - but only when you hit up spot up targets within 5 seconds of marking the ball.
