Once again - Our accuracy when going for goal is terrible. Tarrant had a shocker in 2004 and you would think he could comeback with more form in front of goal - but 2.4 in the Wizard Cup was the sign to come.

Collingwood 2005
Rnd 1 - WB - 11.14 (80)
Rnd 2 - Adel - 10.15 (75)
TOTAL - 2005 - 42% accuracy

Chris Tarrant - 2 goals 5 behinds
Anthony Rocca - 2 goals 5 behinds
Blake Caracella - 6 goals 6 behinds

Imagine what will happen if we kick more straight. Not only up forward at set shots etc. but through the midfield. We have racked up the stats, yet we haven't used them. People blame Rhyce Shaw, there is more.
 
The fowards are abit to blame but that isnt our biggest problem this year. If u watch close you see that both teams we have played this year have doubled back so tarrant or rocca who ever is deep is taking on 2 to 3 players. Now we can't have a go at this what we can do is the same thing at the other end, best thing the pies did two years ago was put a guy named Jason Cloke across half back to contest and make sure our backs got numbers to the contest so that we were able to take the ball back down the ground and score, he may not be in the best form but the way we are going at the moment he could be our chance to make our defence that bit stronger even though its been the best structure all year. what do people think about this ?

true and his doing a good job but we need a bigger boy who flies back into packs and copes knees and elbows like jason did it gave us more options before
 
15 goals 1 behind in the second half against Carlton! :D
Okay so it was probably more ass than class but it shows that all we need is confidence and we can kick fine
