Harder work in defence and the midfield, more players looking to score, better conversion rate and Levi doing his job.  Sounds like a plan Smile

Sounds like a puff piece.

Why do you have to be so negative Sad

Supporters are desperate for information about training and players' progress.  Of course Wright's comments aren't a detailed analysis of our forward structures but they do indicate that Bolton is following up on his intention to focus more on kicking winning scores.

Wow. There is a headline!

What is the alternative?
He is happy with the amount of goals we were kicking last year?
He thinks we kicked too many goals last year?

Frankly, this should be our #1 priority and i would think would go without saying.

If people get excited about reading that sort of thing, well, they are easily pleased.

"We won't be involved in trading this year, we think we've got enough improvement in the list..." ????????

From DJC,s quote from the puff piece Cas has had less than 40 scoring shots in each of the past two years... but someone will tip him to kick 40 goals this year...

I know you don't like being reminded about the past but I think you would have to admit that our 2015 gameplan and results were abysmal.  Bolton made it very clear from the start that his priority was to fix our defensive game and I think he has made a huge improvement.  Addressing the effectiveness of our forward line is another step in a well thought out and well articulated strategy for sustainable success.

It really is quite sad that you don't like reading about how we are going about rebuilding the club.

What about the shots that fail to score?  Smile

It would be huge if Casboult got 40 goals in 2017.  While I'm expecting an improvement on 18, I think that it will be increased contributions from other forwards and midfielders that will be the difference this season.

It really is quite sad that you need to be told this is what is required to rebuild the club.

Its a puff piece. Simple.

Nothing wrong with puff pieces, better than the alternative. Just don't expect me to go put a gorilla on us to win the flag based on this 'new info'.

Puff piece 101.
We want to stop the opposition from kicking goals.
We want to kick more goals.
We want to attack and win the contest

Quite frankly I'd prefer to listen to what the coaches and players have to say than to read your thoughts on the matter.  Yes, they have to stay on message, not give too much away and aren't able to go into great depth but they do know what they're talking about Smile

Be my guest continue to get excited about these puff pieces. If you don't understand any of it, my 2yo can explain it for you. Wink
