I know why we are doing it, and know (hope) it will change in the next year or so, but it would be nice to kick 6-7-8 goals in a quarter one day.
We lose control in last quarters as our midfield gets tired and drops off, but again we are competitive.
We make the easy look difficult moving the ball forward, with several times a kick on the bounce will bounce over a guys head, rather than hitting him in stride on the full.
Still we have a great crop of young guys and some really good senior players now, we are lacking reliable mid tier types to pick up the slack. I'm still positive.
Did you notice the bomb it long down the line tactic resulted in the ball flying through for a Crows goal on numerous occasions? Conceding possession in the wrong area of the ground is very problematic.
Crows had a rocket during the week from their poor performance last week. Came out and kicked 4 straight. That was the difference in the end I reckon.... that crappy start.
