That's all very true.

But Fev didn't miss after the siren because supporters allege that we lack a gameplan. He missed because he couldn't convert when it mattered, for whatever reason. It had nothing to do with any gameplan.

Little things like this do happen and will happen regardless of whether or not supporters can identify an obvious and well-tailored gameplan.

You can have the best gameplan in the world but if Fev misses after the siren, he misses after the siren. It's going to happen anyway. Having what is perceived as a better gameplan isn't going to reduce the chances of Fev missing/bad umpiring/other luck-related factors going for/against us.

As I wrote above, problems from which a team suffers over a given period are not necessarily mutually exclusive. You can simultaneously have been unlucky as well as having suffered from more fundamental onfield issues. Our problems wouldn't have all of a sudden gone away had Fev kicked straight. But at the same time TheGame's point is still legitimate because a case could reasonably be mounted that so far this season some little things have gone against us.

Scotland reckons Ratts tinkers with the game plan.

Fev should not have been in that position when it all came down to one kick under pressure.......ditto for Brad Johnson.
If it wasnt for Fev we wouldnt have been in the game at all...

Wasn't criticizing Fev, just pointing out that if that kick had gone through the sticks like it would 9 times out of 10 we would be 3rd. That's all.

Fev had the same kick 4 times against Crows albeit with a crossbreeze- didn't get one

You're right he can't kick for sh!t.

25 goals 23 behinds - he's unreliable with or without the ball in his hands this year. You're as good as your last game / month / year. He has his excuses, but he's been ordinary this year.

everyone is out of sorts this year

no doubt, fev kicking 25g 23p is becuase of ratts shitty gameplan or lack there of?
