The Hard Road To The Premiership

[PaulP]

IMO it's a combination of;

1 - having no quality KPF to who presents consistently and well for the mids to kick the ball to - so we bomb it.
2- no second and third string goal kickers who can consistently score [think Gunston, Clay Smith, LeCras] and make life difficult for defenders and spread them
3 - lack of pace and true crumbing forward
4 - poor goal kicking technique. Thus also leads to guys trying to pass the ball off.
5 - poor foot skills from the guys delivering ball into i50

On my stats we were 7th for marks inside 50 [12], but i reckon if you looked at marks inside 25 we would be bottom. We take a lot from long range which obviously means you miss a lot.
I'm of the view that without quality forwards you can have a great midfield and lot of i50's

sbf, these are similar to my thoughts as well.
