Really an additional question to Ollie to begin with

Why not follow and catch the pull even if it is going to land out of
bounds? Surely it can still be a huge advantage to put the disc into play
early from the sideline even if it is going to land out. Obviously I'm not
suggesting people try and catch something thats wizzing off into the trees
and the additional thoughts of am I better off calling middle, brick or
re-pull (options you lose if you catch the pull) have to be made.

To Lawrence

I was one of the Druids involved in the 'discussion' at National Indoors in
Leicester. It was I agree slightly more than a friendly discussion, on the
other hand it lasted about 5 secounds, neither Myles nor I (the two
involved) were at all bothered by our 'discussion' and its all part of
being involved in the rather important game we were actually playing at the
time (a quarter final if my rather poor memories serve me well).

Everybody

The hectic style of indoors may cause problems when transfering to
outdoors. On the other hand the Swedes and Finns play mainly indoors and
have managed to be better than us both indoors and outdoors with a smaller
player base since I have been playing (about 11 years now). Its more about
the fact that they practise indoors in a structured way and consequently
its not hectic but ordered and controlled and allows them to move easily
outdoors and remain superior to us. The British style of play does however
have advantages in close games because it creates great team understanding
and the ability the pull off the unusual, something outlawed within
Scandanavian teams to all but a few supreme beings (see last Ultimatum
report by Dan Engstrom?)
