Not withstanding the horrendous display of goal kicking on the weekend, which to be honest can just happen and is not really a hall mark of the Dockers, I think we are actually now on the right track.
What has been a hallmark of the Dockers, selecting courageous honest tryers who give their all but may not be elite in skill levels, happily seems to be changing with the evidence of the more recent drafting.
Compare the kicking of Tommy, Cameron Sutcliffe, D Pearce coming out of the back line with Blakely, Hill, Ryan and Wilson and we now finally, maybe just fortuitously? have got a group that can kick. These guys have the confidence to kick it up the guts and go forward, Ryans creativity is breathtaking for such a youngster in his second year.
My comments earlier were more to do with lack of composure in front of goal as opposed to just poor kicking on the day. Composure can be coached, was my point. At least Roly mentioned it in his presser, maybe he is on to it now?
We can only hope.
As much as anyone says anything on this forum, Bond wont get rid of Roly as he selected him in the first place so Im finding it kind of a moot point to wonder if we should trade him in. One thing I would say, there are no other coaches in my opinion (other than Clarkson) who are DEFINITELY better than Roly. Im tending to just join Jezza and read everything half full, what more can we do?!!
