20 more inside 50s and 11 missed shots translates to real missed opportunities in my book. Anyhow, as I said, a win's a win and despite our worst qtr for the year (apparently TDK was off for 20mins which could be an explanation?) and some defensive breakdowns, we were in control all night.
The free kicks awarded against Walsh stopped us going forward and gave them an inside 50 opportunity. That happened far too often, as did the frees against Crippa. If the frees were evened out, the inside 50 differential would be much smaller.
Despite their 60 inside 50s to our 41, they only had 25 shots to our 21. Our defence was on top for the entire game and they were forced into taking low percentage shots and shots under pressure, and we forced five rushed behinds.
