This along with 1 goal from any tall forwards other than Jack for the entire season is a very concerning statistic. Especially with Jack getting some 'yips' the last few games.

Conversely, how good would we be if we had Ty Vickery still playing for us??? :rollin
-
Given our lack of height at the moment, I'd almost be happy to have Vickery still out there.
-
Just goes to show you that no matter how bad you think things are there is always someone worse off.
-
Coming back to bight us tonight. Should be 4-5 goals up.
-
Yet again we got burnt by our poor goalkicking. More scoring shots yet lose :banghead.
We've kicked more behinds than goals in now our last 4 matches.
GWS 10.15 (after bring 6.1)
Ess 11.15
NM 14.17
Syd 10.11 (after being 5.2)
Then add 10.10 vs Freo after being 5.1 at half-time.
-
You would think it is being worked on don't see any improvements.
-
Another day and another display of pathetic goalkicking.

Yep - not good enough :banghead

Terrible
Shocking
Disgraceful

A major major issue now that needs addressing a.s.a.p.

How bad is our kicking at goal 18 behinds should have been a goal win.Cost in games already and we seem not to be rectifying it.
-
Last night showed what a massive difference it makes when you kick straight.
The Power kicked 3.7 from set-shots to Richmond's 7.1 and it would prove the decisive statistic.

Bump.
Our goalkicking especially from set shots as pathetic as ever today. It's killing us big time in terms. Amateur hour!
-
Pathetic.
Edwards is a terrible set shot. Ditto George.
Jack Riewoldt - missed so many "easy" goals this year.
Prestia and Caddy are both ordinary too.
Bad kicking has cost us wins this year ( Sydney/GWS )
Perhaps we will finally kick straight in a final when it counts .

As far as set shots go George is the worst i have ever seen :lol Plays his role however if only he could kick he would be electric
-
Despite any other failings our goal kicking is the reason we are not on top of the ladder.
-
Was hoping for a docker victory today - never seen "the better team " lose by 5 goals . Atrocious kicking today by Fremantle.
Suddenly I don't feel as bad .
-
Our goal kicking again today was horrible.
But what gets me is in the first quarter when Edwards takes a mark 40 out from goal only to kick it sideways to a player not even 10 metres away. He must be so not confident of kicking that goal.
He and most others should be choc full of confidence after a week of goal kicking on the track. I understand if you miss a few early and lose confidence but to start with none is f$&king ridiculous.
We have so many poor set shot goal kickers. George, Caddy, Edwards, Prestia, McIntosh, Grigg.
-
McIntosh? You may as well include Rance and Grimes in the list too! :lol
-

Well yeah maybe kinda sorta...
-
I would say that Cotch and Dusty aren't exactly experts at goal kicking either. Can't recall Dusty nailing a set shot on an angle and Cotch has missed very simple shots. Our best shots for goal probably are Jack and Lennon although Jack has had the yips, missed an easy one early yesterday.
-
Cotch has been good from set shots this year I reckon. Much improved from last couple of years.
-

We flopped in the four close games which is an issue in itself but if we had kicked even a little bit straighter we go two games clear on top. That's how I see it anyway.

The stats, compiled by Champion Data, compared how players have kicked against the competition average and take into account where shots at goal are taken from, what type of kicks they were and the pressure the players were under.
St Kilda nail 5.5 per cent fewer shots than they should – ranked second-last in that category (with Richmond 18th).
Champion Data has also ranked every club based on its average expected score compared to its actual score.
On that measure, St Kilda is ranked 17th. Again, only Richmond has been more wasteful.

That's be that "X-Factor" Castagna brings.... :shh
-
I think we will start improving on that stat if Caddy can get three every week from a meter out

Just cant get over how much we butcher easy goals. Counted about 5 today that youd mark down as certain sodas, add a couple of cheapies the hawks got and im still scratching my head as to how we only won by 5 goals and not 12

Another >100 score gone begging. We can bang on about certain players, selection committee, the head coach, anything else, but the most minimal improvement in front of goals and we go two games on top of the ladder. Come finals we can't afford to let any team have a sniff, no good having the best defence if we can't put teams away on the scoreboard. This feels like a very unsettled season/era of footy coming off dominant periods of a few clubs like Hawthorn and if we take our chances properly there is no reason we can't snatch the whole thing this year like the Dogs did last year. Who knows if the league will settle next season and we aren't in the same position as we are now. I'll spew if it comes down to losing it because our players suck at the most basic and fundamental skill of our game.

Jack missed 3 gettable chances after nailing his first early in the game.
Houli's two missed sitters from 20 out, both after 50m penalties, were momentum killers :facepalm.
You can get away with missing set shots and stuffing up good chances against bottom sides (last week) but not against top sides.

Its simply not good enough. You could tell Houli was going to miss his first 2 shots...playing around pretending his left hand was slippery :banghead Concentrate and kick the bloody ball straight!

Don't worry.....some clearly very astute experts have informed me that Big Guy Levi will rectify the situation....... :shh
-
In round 1 next year we'll kick 19 8 122.
Because its the start of the season that boosts membership sales.

If Big Guy Levi played for us today we would have won that game. Blind Freddy can see we need a contested marking beast at CHF.
Henderson killed us today with his intercept marking.
Anyway agree to disagree on him but I'd take him in a heartbeat especially for nothing.

Yep well said. Especially when you consider he would replace Soldo.

We need him or similar that's for sure. Something for our smalls to feed off as they can't be the down the line target.

I hope the boys finally realised today how much easier it is to win when you kick straight (25.5). Typically this year, 30 scoring shots would result in 12.15 + 3 OOTF and only a grinded out 30 point win.

Bankers or shankers?: The best and worst set shots
Nathan Schmook
afl.com.au
23 August 2017
WE'VE heard it time and again - kicking for goal is the one skill that hasn't improved in football over many seasons. But some players are far more reliable sharpshooters than others.
Here are the best and worst at your club when lining up in front of the big sticks.
RICHMOND
Best: Dustin Martin (18 shots, 11 goals, six behinds, one miss, 61 per cent)
A key tactic for the Tigers this season has been isolating Martin deep forward, where he can monster his opponents one-on-one in dangerous positions. As a result, he has taken 22 marks inside 50 (more than all top-20 ball-winners bar Patrick Dangerfield) and found himself in positions where he can capitalise. Then there is his pure skill with the footy in his hands.
Worst: Shane Edwards (13 shots, four goals, seven behinds, two misses, 31 per cent)
Playing on a wing and at half-forward, Edwards hasn't been taking set shots in high-percentage areas this season. He most notably kicked 0.3 against GWS in round 18, including one set shot from 40m and another from 50m on the boundary. He hasn't been rotated deep forward like other midfielders at Punt Road Oval.
