Our forward structure must get better.
There is & will be a lot of talk this week about Freo's problem kicking goals but they have more points in their points for column than we do.
Even Stkilda has kicked more points than us.
Friday night we could've blasted the cheating scum out of the park but we squandered the chance with atrocious forward 50 entries all night.
Could only imagine how more productive it would've been if we got a small goal sneak tackling machine like Gartlett when we had the chance.
We need to find more than what we have currently.
My view on us not scoring nearly enough is how we set up with a 7 man back line, leaving us outnumbered in our forwardline on almost every occasion.
Personal is one thing but when we play one short every week it doesn't really matter who is there.
IMO the reason we do this is DH doesn't really trust our backman one on one and IMO it's mostly Houli he doesn't trust to defend properly. If he did we wouldn't need to set up this way every game we play. I have no problem doing it when teams get a run on but to do it each and every game really takes away from our scoring ability. That's why we very rarely have big wins even against the weaker sides.
Up the other end we kick it to the pockets to get stoppages so we can get time to even up in our forwardline. We also set up all bunched up so their loose man isn't just alone to do whatever he likes. Giving our forwards little opportunity to get one on ones with their direct opponents.
How many really easy goals do we get? None! We work really hard for every score and it's even harder when we get our shots from the pockets. We are just lucky we have Jack who can beat a couple of opponents and can kick it straight.
Just my take.
