About

Pass and Move is a football blog dedicated to tactical analysis, with a special emphasis on the Socceroos and the A-League, the top flight of Australian competition.


It was inspired by the work of Michael Cox on Zonal Marking, Jonathon Wilson for the Guardian, John Duerden and Brett Taylor for ESPN Soccernet, and draws influences from the Executioner's Bong and Football Further.


Pass and Move is an attempt to elevate the level of tactical discourse and insight about football in Australia; the central tent of Pass and Move is to move beyond merely reporting 'what' occurred during a match and ascertaining 'why' and 'how' it was won, drawn or lost.


Pass and Move hope to encourage others to broaden their own football knowledge.
