To zone or not to zone

HillBilly,

That was my point, there is a lot of bashing when there was no need. It is not always sturt bashing (just is in this thread, and often is). The thread was about zone defense, and got turned into a "look at me" thread.

Read my post again, I was not bashing sturt nor defending sturt. I was "bashing the bashers" from both sides so to speak.

Im not a sturt man, but I think there is a bit of sturt bashing going on here.

They do quote the facts - they do not teach their kids to play zone and their kids do struggle playing against it - sometimes.

They do teach their kids how to play proper D - that is why they are so good as a junior club.

Good D will always beat good O

I'd be more than happy for SB and the Vader to teach my kid the correct way but he likes playing with his mates.

It is obvious to an outsider with any nouse that the results they get are a by-product of the program they have in place.

We should not be canning them but trying to copy them and implement what they do - for the good of all

I do not always comment in a politically correct manner. Just asking a question, as i opened the thread expecting someones comments about a zone and by the 9th post there it was "my club is better than your club".

I have no problem with you doing that, just start a thread "look at my nuts" and be done with it, you can do all the bashing there.

I am not stopping or even trying to stop these comments, just would have liked the thread to contain a little more about the topic at hand (yes it has been done before as SB mentioned, but always an interesting debate). Go back to naming your sturt heros or trying to cut them down now, whichever side you are on.

Why is it that 90 % of threads turn into a cock-measuring contest between a club (in this case sturt) and a bunch of anonymous posters as to who is better.

If you want to answer the question, then answer it.

If you want a cock-measuring contenst, then become a porn star.

Have a nice day.
