CHASING THE COLLISION

Brad often uses this in pressers, but I don't know what it means.

Can anyone explain it to me please?

  • I think it means the boys aren't afraid of the head on attack from the opposition. They enjoy the brutality of the big forwards smashing up the middle. 

    • Yeah, and understanding the collision is coming and embracing it, i guess a wankier way of saying  "Bring it on"?

  • Some players look for the contact with opposition players, it's usually the bigger stronger players that use their physical advantage to dominate opposition players. They usually run straight at someone rather than running at gaps. 

  • Pretty self explanatory, means you don't play sideways and you need to earn the right to play the flashy play by first dominating the collision in both attack and defence. RCG is prime example of how to chase the collision.

    • Thanks guys

  • 'Attitude'

  • In old school Jack Gibson terms it means run it 'straight and hard'. 

  • Just think of Isaiah definition of it 

  • Chasing the collision:  Players looking to dominate with aggression 

  • For us to be successful we need to physically dominate the opposition. We are a power footy team. The times we went away from that we struggle. The 1st half against the Broncos in round 1, the Dragons in round 5, a few patches against the Tigers & Dogs we tried to go around the opposition instead of through them.

    That's what he is referring to.
