Executive summary (Coach Brief)
A one-page snapshot for the manager: opponent identity, primary threats, key vulnerabilities, and the three to five things that will decide the game. If you read nothing else, you read this.

Pre-Match Analysis
A complete tactical scout of your next opponent. Send one match and we return a nine-section dossier on how they play, who hurts you and how to beat them. Send two or more — for championship weeks or finals — and the dossier expands into a Cross-Match read: one product, deeper inputs, sharper plan.
Why it matters
Stop guessing
what they'll do.
Coaches lose entire weeks to opposition analysis and still walk into matches guessing. A pre-match report gives you certainty on what they'll do, removes the guesswork from your week's training, and lets your management focus on coaching the response instead of finding the problem.
Instead of you spending four to six hours watching the same game three times with a notepad, BuaHQ breaks the opposition down into a structured, hurling-native report your management team can read in five minutes and act on in training that week.
In the week
Read it Monday.
Drill it Tuesday.
Win it Sunday.
Inside the dossier
Nine sections, every report.
02
Opponent profile & formation
Their starting shape, how it morphs in and out of possession, who drops, who pushes, where the spare man lives. Removes the guesswork on who's marking who before throw-in.
03
Defensive structure
How they set up without the ball — zonal vs man, sweeper use, full-back line behaviour, and where they concede space. Tells your forwards exactly where the soft pockets are.
04
Pressing & press triggers
When they press, when they drop, what triggers the press — puckout, sideline, turnover — and how to play through it. Your half-backs know whether to carry, hit early or recycle before they get the ball.
05
Attacking patterns
Their go-to attacking shapes — runners off the shoulder, diagonal balls, overlaps, recurring combinations. Your defence is rehearsing their attacks before they happen.
06
Puckout strategy
Goalkeeper tendencies — short, medium or long, preferred targets, where they go under pressure, and the second-ball structure. Wins or loses you fifteen-plus possessions a match.
07
Danger player dossiers
Individual profiles on their three to five most influential players: preferred foot, where they pick up ball, scoring zones, weaknesses, and how to nullify them. Your markers walk out with a plan, not a hope.
08
“What beat them” — vulnerability map
Reverse-engineered from what their opposition did successfully. Concrete tactical solutions that have already worked against this team. You're not guessing — you're copying a winning blueprint.
09
Recommended game plan principles
Synthesised tactical recommendations: how to set up, where to attack, how to handle their puckout, what to do if you're up or down. Turns the analysis into actions your coaches can drill on Tuesday and Thursday.
Send more than one match
One match can lie.
Multiple tell the truth.
The Cross-Match Dossier separates what a team always does from what they did once — so the patterns you train against are the patterns that will actually appear on Sunday.
The dossier comes in two parts: a trend analysis of who they really are, and a tactical game plan built from the trend — your blueprint to beat them.
Part 01
Trend analysis — who they really are.
- →Consistent patterns — what they always do, weighted by frequency across the matches you send.
- →Evolving tactics — what they change opponent to opponent, and what triggers the switch.
- →Recurring vulnerabilities — weaknesses that show up in match after match, not one-offs.
Part 02
Tactical game plan — your blueprint to beat them.
- →Formation & shape recommendation built off the trend.
- →Press, puckout, attacking, set-piece and transition calls tuned to their patterns.
- →Match-ups & match-day management — who marks who, what to change if it's going against you.
Same product, same nine-section spine — just deeper inputs. Send up to seven of their recent matches. Pricing scales per extra match — see the pricing page.
What to send
A few things and we're away.
- →One opposition match (standard) — or up to seven for championship weeks, finals or any fixture you can't afford to be wrong on.
- →Date, opposition and competition for each match.
- →Team sheets where available — enables player-level naming.
- →Up to 5 tactical questions you want the AI to answer — e.g. “Where can we hurt them?”, “Who's their biggest threat?”, “What's their puckout pattern?”
