Full credit to west coast though.
At one point they were 3 goals 5.
They then went on to score 11 goals 1 from their next 12 scoring shots (one hit the post).
Premiership team, doing what premiers do and that is make the most of their opportunities.
We were 5 goals 3 at quarter time, and then I think we were 6 goals 5 at half time. Speaks volumes.
What hurts is that when we got our opportunities, we didnt make the most of them. I don't think the effort can be faulted, but the lack of composure at times was probably the biggest issue. In the first quarter we looked like we were a little more concerned with playing around McGovern.
Later, not so much.
Ironically, the way we played under Bolton would have worked better against West Coast. Slower more deliberate build up than this reliance on going faster, and being faster than West Coast.
