Scenario:
The opposition kicks 4 goals in a row.
What Needs to Happen:
We must implement a change.
Why:
Allowing 4 goals can quickly turn into 6, putting us in a more challenging position.
How:
We reload the backline with numbers, creating an 8v6 scenario (e.g., "Drain the Vein"). This tactic disrupts their momentum and limits their scoring opportunities.
When:
We activate this strategy when the opposition has either:
- 3 consecutive forward entries, or
- Scores 2 goals in a row.
By doing so, we "drain their vein" (adrenaline), taking away their momentum and regaining control.
