Man Defence - Downfield break
jasperdFocus on the mark (R1, how R4 is out of position later). A demonstration of why holding the force is so important in a stretched field situation. Also a demonstration of how to cut deep, from the side opposite the disc is moving to.

Offense
The 4-1-2 "German" offense
nathanThe 4-1-2 German offense was popularized in the mid to late 90's in Germany. It doesn't see a lot of play nowadays, partly because it is not as dynamic as even a basic V or H stack. A very possession-based offense, the German is essentially an iso on a midfield cutter, where handlers throw to space and it is the isolated player's job to run the disc down. Ultimately it boils down to a moderate-risk, semi-floaty pass to the iso player, followed by a series of low risk continuation passes (or alteratively a reset to the handlers). Also known as "Lawn Chess", two teams playing German can be quite boring to watch as cuts are few, and turnovers are even fewer. Still, the German can be effective, particularly if there is a mismatch between two players.
