Thanks for that info, don't think ND will kick it against these guys, its either you stronger of you have one good counter... Going to try out jacks tactics, just waiting to see where to put the arrows...

Imho key is the midfield. Try to have more players in your midfield as to your opponent. It always is where most of the action of match is. With more players in the midfield you are more likely to control the game (measured by posession).
The 3-2-2-2-1 Butterfly (or a variation) should do the trick. Butterfly is best played with an attacking mentality when your opponent is weaker or same quality. Use normal mentality when you opponent is slightly better quality and use defensive when your opponent is much stronger.
Go around both flanks, mixed passing, normal tackle, own half and zone cover. No checkboxes checked.
Clearly 4-2-2-2 hex doesnt work.. Another 2-0 loss!!
Not sure in your server but on mine... 4-4-2 is still freaking overpowered! My team is all 5* 1 SP to 6* (I do not make them 6* so I can sell them easily next season) and struggle or lose against 4-4-2.. 3/4* teams.. I use 3-5-2 flat but I will change to 4-4-2 or 3-2W-2-2W-1 to try to beat those 4-4-2 guys..
4-1-3W-2 seems not that popular in my league... haven't faced one yet but if I play a team I'll see how I go..
