We more often than not get more I50s than the opportunity, even when we get beaten badly. We have however butchered the ball in front of goal for years. So are they putting enough emphasis on goal kicking? And by that, I don't mean just repeated shots at goal, but using other techniques, methods, specialist coaches, deep analysis of set shots during games, heart rates etc. This is the single area that has cost us many games and yet it appears nothing has been done about it. These are where the next steps need to be taken.
I'm not sure about goal kicking training, but Teague said they are training decision making and execution. He said in games both time and space are taken away from you, and they try and train with that intensity, but you need balance, because if they train constantly like a real match, the players will be cooked before the ball is bounced.
