Crocodiles - Steelers 22.08.2020

Seinäjoki Crocodiles vastasi Vaahteraliigan neljännen kierroksen jymypaukusta. Sarjan suvereeni kärkijoukkue Kuopio Steelers kaatui trillerissä lopulta 14-7.

Crocodiles lähti otteluun selkeästi altavastaajan paikalta. Joukkueen peli on yskähdellyt Christian Powellin vireen tahdissa ja ennen lauantaina voittosarakkeesta löytyi vain kotivoitto Roostersista. Erityisesti heittopelin kanssa on ollut vaikeuksia Spencer Cutlanin hakiessa edelleen parasta virettään pelinrakentajan paikalla. Steelers-pelistä odotettiin joukkueiden juoksuhyökkäysten taistelua ennustetun sadekelin ja märän ruohokentän takia. Jos kyse olisi ollut puhtaasti juoksukilpailusta, Crocodiles olisi voittanut tuon jaardein 152-34. Kotijoukkueen hyökkäyslinja pelasi nappipelin ja se näkyy tilastoissa ja tulostaululla.

Seinäjokiset lähtivät peliin hyvin latautuneina ja valmennuksen kikkakorista nostettiin esille mm. odotettu Alexander Germanyn käyttäminen pelinrakentajan paikalla. Märkä kenttä vaikutti molempien joukkueiden pelivalikoimaan ja se näkyy myös tilastoissa. Kumpainenkin eteni ottelussa vain hitusen yli 200 jaardia. Keskushyökkääjien kaksintaistelussa Crocojen Powell oli lauantaina selkeästi paremmassa vireessä. Steelersin tähtitukimiehet eivät onnistuneet pysäyttämään amerikkalaista riittävästi ja pariin otteeseen myös Veikka Lehtonen pääsi yllättämään kuopiolaispuolustuksen juoksuillaan.

Hyökkäyslinjan ohella Crocodiles sankareita olivat puolustuksen taistelijat. Hadrien Lynda oli joukkueensa ahkerin taklaaja ja Saidou Jallow sekä Alexander Germany onnistuivat poimimaan vastustajan heitot haltuunsa kertaalleen. Tuore, kuin varkain rosteriin ilmestynyt linjavahvistus, ranskalainen Ander Roullette oli joukkueensa toiseksi aktiivisin taklaaja.

Steelers palautettiin karusti maan pinnalle

Kuopiolaiset saivat edellisen kierroksen murskavoitostaan aimo annoksen itseluottamusta, mutta hyvänolon tunteeseen ei saa jäädä leijumaan. Joukkueen päävalmentaja Pekka Utriainen tiivisti omiensa suorituksen ottelun jälkeen seuran sosiaalisessa mediassa julkaistussa haastattelussa:

-No eihän se hyvin mennyt. Hyökkäyksessä aikamoinen katastrofipäivä ja puolustus teki kaiken voitavansa, mutta se näytti just siltä, että kaveri oli valmis ja me ei ja lopputulos oli tämä. Meidän juoksuhyökkäys ei käynnistynyt missään vaiheessa mutta kyllä se vastaus on siinä, että ei oltu valmiina.

Aiemmissa peleissä keskimäärin 147 jaardia per ottelu juossut keskushyökkääjä Lamar Carswell jätettiin vaatimattomaan 33 jaardiin. Tuore CFL-vahvistus Max Zimmermann nappasi Seth Petersin heiton kiinni kahdeksan kertaa ja mies oli keskeisessä roolissa viimeisen minuutin kirin aikana. Pohdittavaksi jäi, miksi palloa ei välillä annettu Carswellia raskasrakenteisemmalle Ville Lindstetille, joka olisi saattanut märällä kentällä runnoa jaardeja tehokkaammin kuin kevytrakenteinen jenkki.

Kuopion taklaustilaston kolme kärkinimeä olivat lauantaina Kadel King, Semmie Radji ja AJ Wentland. Vain kahden touchdownin päästäminen selän taakse merkitsee nykyjefussa vain harvoin tappiota, mutta tämä peli oli kuopiolaisille se poikkeus.

Samat olosuhteet molemmille

Olosuhteet kentällä olivat lauantaina samat molemmille joukkueille. Yllättäen kumpikaan hyökkäys ei rähmännyt palloja vastustajalle pelin aikana, mutta seinäjokiset onnistuivat kahdesti katkaisemaan Seth Petersin heiton haltuunsa. Pienten marginaalien pelissä pienet asiat ratkaisevat lopulta voiton toiselle joukkueelle. Lauantaina tuo tekijä oli pallon hallinta-aika. Statistiikan mukaan kumpikin joukkue eteni hyökkäysyrityksillään keskimääräin 4,3 jaardia. Kun molemmat joukkueet etenevät identtisellä tahdilla, löytyy ratkaisuksi pallon hallinta. Siinä Crocot voittivat Steelersin 26:11 – 21:49. Jaardeissa Steelers oli tappiostaa huolimatta niukasti edellä 212-208.

Lauantain vaahteraliigakamppailussa on pelissä paljon. Crocodiles taistelee kynsin hampain pudotuspelipaikasta ja tarvitsee kipeämmin voittoa. Steelers voisi varmistaa playoff-pelien kotiedun voitollaan.

Seinäjoki Crocodiles on voittanut kauden kolmesta aiemmasta kohtaamisestaan ainoastaan yhden. Vierasvoitto Roostersista voi osoittautua tärkeäksi, mikäli joukkue ajautuu tasapisteisiin kovaa nousua tekevän helsinkiläisjoukkueen kanssa.

Crocodilesin hyökkäyksen sydän on juoksumoottori Christian Powell. Yhdysvaltalainen johtaa Vaahteraliigan etenemistilastoa 529 juoksujaardillaan. Jaardeista 498 on syntynyt kahdessa jälkimmäisessä pelissä Royalsia ja Roostersia vastaan. Lauantain sääennuste ei lupaa hyvää vahvajalkaisen keskushyökkääjän tilastotehtailulle. Ennakkoa kirjoitettaessa Forecan sääennuste lupaa Seinäjoelle runsasta sadetta kolmen pisaran ja salaman tehostein. Märän kentän lisäksi Powellia odottaa mudan keskellä vastassaan Steelersin nimekäs tukimieskolmikko, jonka ykkössaaliiksi hänet on merkitty jo hyvissä ajoin.

Crocojen heittohyökkäys on tilastollisesti ollut toistaiseksi liigan heikoin. Kolmessa ottelussa vain kolme heitettyä TD:tä ja jaardikeskiavo 120 per peli. Ennustettu sade ei varmasti tule parantamaan Spencer Cutlanin heittostatistiikkaa. Samu Jupon johtamalla valmennustiimillä tulee olemaan täysi työ suunnitella voitava hyökkäyksen pelisuunnitelma mutapainin ystäville.

Seinäjokisten tukimies Jaska Värinen johtaa suvereenisti Vaahteraliigan taklaustilastoa 25 pysäytyksellä, joista peräti 23 on tehty soolona. Toiseksi eniten taklauksia on kirjattu Värisen vieressä pelaavalle Veikka Lehtoselle. Miesten vastuulla lauantaina tulee olemaan liigan maalintekokunkku Lamar Carswellin pysäyttäminen. Uutena pelaajana Crocodiles esittelee yleisölleen linjapuolustaja Ander Roulleten. 28-vuotias endin paikalle merkitty Roullette pelasi aiemmin Berlin Rebelsin joukkueessa Saksassa.

Steelers taistelee runkosarjan voitosta

Viime kauden hopeajoukkue Steelers on edennyt tasaisilla suorituksilla kohden kauden huipentumaa. Joukkue on esitellyt lähes jokaiseen peliin lisää vahvistuksia eikä lauantai tee tässä poikkeusta. NFL akatemiaan lähtevä Jaakko Paananen korvataan CFL-ammattisarjasta kokemusta saaneella Max Zimmermannilla. Lisäksi hyökkäyksen linja on saanut takaisin edellisellä kaudella Steelersissa pelanneen Bartoz Bednarczycin joka avauspelissään on merkitty linja backup-pelaajaksi.

Kuopiolaiset järjestivät edellisen kierroksen kotipelissään maali-ilottelun 70-6 Wolverines voitollaan. Hyvänolontunnetta on varmasti pyritty oikaisemaan lauantaille ja päävalmentaja Pekka Utriaisen agendalla on varmasti ollut kurinalaisuuden lisääminen erityisesti puolustusmiehistössä. Erityisesti tukimiehet Kadel King ja Semmie Radji ovat käyneet peleissä ylikierroksilla innostuksissaan.

Steelers-keskushyökkääjä Lamar Carswell tulee olemaan Seinäjoella merkitty mies. Väkkärämäinen keskushyökkääjä johtaa liigan maalitilastoa yhdeksällä touchdownillaan. Pelinrakentaja Seth Peters osoitti viime lauantaina tarjoilevansa heittouhkaa tälläkin kaudella. Erityisesti viiden TD:n Tino Ndongo oli liekeissä, joita sade Seinäjoen keskuskentällä saattaa sammuttaa ainakin hiukkasen. Saksalaisen Zimmermannin mukaantulo tuo uudenlaista uhkaa Steelersin heittohyökkäykseen ja saattaa asettaa Crocojen puolustuksen koordinaattorit vaikeiden varjostuspäätösten eteen.
