15 Goals
« on: May 05, 2013, 08:55:40 AM »
As  most of you would remember when T Wallace was in charge he set out to ensure we were kicking over 15 goals per game, which would in turn show an attacking type of football. Now I believe he did this, although some stats may prove me wrong ;D, but from memory we were above that rate once he implemented the strategy.

Now going by the stats below I would have to ask, are we being too defensive against the better sides, what is happening? We have dropped our bundle here, we are not kicking over the 15 consistently!

Against Carlton; 14 goals
Against ST Kilda; 14 goals
Against Bulldogs; 20 goals (this is the target now IMO)
Against Pies; 11 goals
Against Cats; 13 goals

Never mind the two wins against the Saints and Blues, to be up there we must be up there goal wise with the Cats, Swans, Pies...the big teams!!

Thoughts??

What's the point? If we're ever a top 4 side the umps will make sure we are the new Doggies and we never get past a prelim.

VFL umpiring is so much better. They don't try to control the game at all.

14 goals should be enough to win most games IMHO. If we need to kick 20 to win then thats a problem. Freo try and win by kicking about 10.

Clearly it's not against the better sides though, Freo have won games this year kicking above 10 goals and above 15...

We can kick 10, 15, or 20 goals a game but it means diddly squat when the opposition is kicking more

Our problem at the minute is once we start losing the clearances like we did last night late in the 2nd and for most of the 3rd we are goneskis. In part because we are so slow to react to it out on the field

What I meant was we need to kick at least 20 to win and keep the opposition to 15 or lower, it shows we have an attacking component to our game as well as a defensive one. At the moment we have neither...not for four quarters at least.

Yes agree with this statement.

You can kick 15 and lose. Keeping the opposition to less than 80 points will generally win you a game ;)
