Re: How many Goals
Yeah about that.
7 goals 15 behinds is my guess.
Billings will miss three from within 40 meters. But he will kick the most difficult attempt of the day.

Re: How many Goals
the less behinds we score, the less worse it looks.
so we go on orders not to shoot unless it's a 95% certainty.
so i'm going for 4-7. A marked improvement!

Re: How many Goals
How many goal posts can we hit from one metre out this week? 2

Re: How many Goals
I want to change my guess.
6 goals, fifteen behinds.
Billings wont kick a goal.

Re: How many Goals
Nice OP
It’s almost as if some posters are RELISHING the boys struggling out there.

I'm angry Jiggs.

Just facing the harsh reality of it.

Re: How many Goals
D’you think that I’m “ enjoying “ it? It’s one thing to “ face harsh reality “ ( I did just that last week in Tassie ) but it’s another thing to go on a fan forum and post SOME of the stuff that gets put up here. There again, if that’s what gets folk through it all, then fine I guess.bigred wrote:I'm angry Jiggs.

self deprecating humour - used either by those successful enough to fake it and those who pretend to have come to terms with reality.

Whichever way you look at it, our kicking has been “on point”

Re: How many Goals
I agree with most on here 7.14 is our standard now. i.e. every third shot on target is a goal. And that is in perfectly confined conditions. Good help us at the g

Re: How many Goals
well how are we going...3 goals 8 behinds, sounds about right...we are on track.
their kicking for goal actually makes me feel sick and I'm not even going to mention our field kicking. anyways another game gone but let's see how many more behinds. [thumbs up emoticon]
