For all those opposition scouts out there, I am going to give away the secret to beating us:
Kick a behind.
You will get a shot on goal 20 seconds later, more or less in front.
I thought we played very well for the majority of the night and the signs are there, but FFS we struggle to find 2 consecutive targets kicking out after a behind. It is a major pet hate of mine. We have been the worst side in the comp clearing the ball from defense for a couple of years but nothing has changed. We kick it to a man in the pocket and then can't go any further. Someone pick the ****ing thing up after a behind and get it in quickly.
The worse thing is opposition teams clear it from their kick-ins so easily against us.
I reckon we conceeded about 20 points tonight due directly from turning it over after a kick-in.
