New game plan

We do undoubtedly have a problem kicking goals. Our highest score this season is 100 points, and we have only kicked 15 goals in a game once, against Carlton first game. We do often ge our fair share of inside 50s, so you can only put it down to two things. One is the forwards are struggling to convert opportunities, and two the delivery into the forward line is poor. This has been an issue for us for a long time. I think the signs are promising, in that we are slowly weeding out unskilled players for skilled. Am a little concerned that, once Richo is on his way out, that none of Schulz, Hughes or Patto come on, leaving a bit of a hole in the future. That's why I'd like to see the youngsters played now (instead of Kingsley) to ascertain as soon as possible how they will go, otherwise we could find ourselves with a big gap in the forward line for the next few years.
