Poor kicking for goal.
Poor entries into F50. Targeted CC 16 times for what return.
Small forwards MIA.
Yet for all that..could have won it

Can still win it, need to be more efficient.

How did this happen? Can anyone explain it to me?
With the injuries we have, it was enormous.
There is something cooking and it ain't the same crap as previous false dawns.

And they couldn't miss because so many of their shots on goal were 'easy.' When a side has 20 shots on goal and nails 80% of them, you look at your defence... it wasn't 'luck', it was simply that their shots on goal were 'a walk in the park.' Poor pressure. We gave the 'suckers' an even break and made them look much better than they were.
Agree completely with this. It is much easier to kick a goal when you are under minimal pressure and the shots are taken in the corridor.
They opened us up like a tin of sardines when going forward. It was embarrassing to watch.
As I said in a previous post, the inability of our midfielders (lack of pace) to put pressure on hurts us on transition especially on the Marvel highway deck.

Why do small forwards always get the blame?Not total blame, just part of the reason we are not playing as well as we are capable off.
The ball comes into the forward line and is brought to the ground often enough for the small forwards to create opportunities - they are not taking them.

My main takeaways from the game:
1. Lack of leg speed/line breakers means the ball often gets to the forward line slowly or from a kick under pressure meaning we rely on CC or H to take a big pack grab against multiple defenders who have peeled off their man to support. Very predictable to the opposition.
2. As Kingy & Lyon noted, we work too hard for our goals because of 1) above and we don't lower the eyes/and or forwards not leading to space. Compare our forward entries to the open spaces that Adelaide's forwards operated in.
3. Our small forwards not up to scratch especially Fantasia. Must be dropped.
4. Defence off today due to injuries, matches and lack of pressure from midfield. Refer 1) lack of leg speed required to chase some of Adelaide's line breakers.
