This might sound like nit picking but what the hell has happened to our guys passing skills, they fustrate the @#$%&! out of me....Heres how im seeing it.
A) When in the clear and with plenty of time instead of tryig to hit someone on the chest we are aiming at team mates boots!!!!
B) When a player spots another player in the clear we kick the ball so damn high he has to sit and wait and it gets punched away!!!!
OK, if it happens now and then you can except it, but it's happening all the time. Please guys, straight, low and hard, aim at the chest and over time im sure ill regain the hair ive pulled out due to fustration.

We actually controlled the play in the first 5-10 minutes, but our disposal into our forward line killed us. Even our good players butchered the ball today.

not to mention the amount of passes straight to the Tigers players and right on the 50 Meter line too.. Was a shocking day of disposal skills and decision making.

We need to get a decent skills coach ... poach someone from Westcoast or Port who at least can teach the players to hit targets or dispose of the ball effectively

It's not nitpicking Brian, its costing us games.

For whatever reason our skill level has really dropped off. Witness the Doggies in Brisbane tonight, currently about 4 goals up and hitting targets with just about every disposal.

I think R1-6 our endeavour and application was around the mark, but our skills were poor. Well, today we got to see what happens when our endeavour, application AND skill levels are below par, and it's not pretty.
