Goalkicking Yips

[mightytiges]

12.20 last week and 13.19 tonight. Another 8 misses within the "Vee" that should be gimmes. How do we fix the yips?

Even our best shots had shockers - Pettifer and Lids. 12 Tiges kicked points  .

We desperately need to improve this.

We would have won tonight and last week by much greater margins if we had kicked straight.

What about Polo though, for someone maligned a bit for his disposal he kicked 3 straight.

For those not at the game tonight, it was fairly windy

get rid of brian taylor as our specialist kicking coach!
i recall when he had this position at the doggies under rhode , they had very similar problems at kicking 4 goal!

David Wheadon also helps out at training when BT isn't there.

This is what you get when Richo is your goalkicking instructor  .

Our best kicks were the debutants Cleve and Polo. They haven't been fully Richmondized yet lol .

You can be the best teacher in the world before if you cant comprehend or what to learn, thats a different story. They cant kick it for them

I am surprised at West Coasts, it terrible also.

Atleast they are winning though.
