Anyone thats listened to the podcast over the last 18 months knows that this is a bug bear of mine. We've lost all confidence in front of the sticks. When trying to get back in the game, we have a number of players who cannot kick the crucial goal and we end up with ridiculous scorelines like 8.17 etc.
In our winning run last year we were kicking at 56%. Since the SYdney loss last year we've kicked at 48%. In losses, we kick at 43%.
Why is this the case? This has cost us a spot in a grand final, cost us a chance at top 4 last year and has cost us at least one game this year. Yesterday we kept Richmond scoreless in the third quarter, dominated play and managed 1.4. Its not good enough.
How do we turn this aspect of our game around?
