Boys torched it in front
Missed alot of really gettable goals. Not saying we would have won but scoreboard pressure would have pressured the Crows more than it did and it would have been a hell of a different match.

Re: Boys torched it in front
Not wrong there mate, at once stage I think it was 7.1 to 4.7 or something stupid in the set shots.
Losing Roo and missing set shots cost us a chance at win #3

It's a shame ignorance isn't painful

Add 6 quality players through FA and the draft and we are trucking along well.
Shenton and Templeton are not AFl standard

Re: Boys torched it in front
Yep, slaughtered the ball going forward. 10.13 is bad kicking. 2.5 in 2nd qtr.
Crows did flood back fast to block-up the 50 metre arc, and then
pantsed us on the rebound. Missed Riewoldt as link-man on HF line.
Basil Zempilas is torture to listen to.

Templeton was last year but hasn't been the same since his arm break. Worth giving lots of time to see if he can get that form back.saintspremiers wrote:Add 6 quality players through FA and the draft and we are trucking along well.

Re: Boys torched it in front
Kicked ourselves out of it. The older players really steadied the ship last week and unfortunately today we looked back to some youthful mistakes and a little disorganisation at times.
Re: Boys torched it in front
Probably shows where we are with players still developing. Billings has a spray-it kind of style kicking on goal. He kicks it powerfully but there is a certain amount of gambling in it. Reminds me of Buddy a bit. But as big game players they kick them when it matters. Newnes I think has an awkward kicking style that breaks down under pressure. Bruce is pretty good and should get even better. Schneider well...he's always been inconsistent so no surprise there. Away from home with a hostile crowd maybe it puts you off that little bit more. Even dead eye dick Sinclair was off his normal iceman kicking mode. The good thing is we still create lots of chances. That's been a joyous change after the Lyon era.

Re: Boys torched it in front
Kicking inside 50, and kicking to forwards on leads needs a lot of work. This must take precedence over the next pre-season. Need to work on these weaknesses.
