THE CAT TRAP
Cats have adopted a clever game plan.
Attack hard early from every turnover.
Go direct if open targets are available.
This makes opponents drop back more.
They start attacking less defending more
Go wide to boundary if area is flooded.
This makes intercept marks difficult
Exert max forward pressure, force errors.
This creates chaos in Cats scoring area.
When rebounding, forced to run and carry
They risk turnovers in dangerous areas
Set up perimeter zone around 50m arc.
Cats aim is to lock the ball inside F50
Gain repeat entries create scoring chances.
When they break out they have no targets
Intercept, kick back and switch directions
Aim is to force them to remain defending.
Slow their attacking momentum to zero
Control game tempo and grind out a win
