Listen to this - Tyson Goldsack on our goal kicking woes:
“We reviewed it as coaches. We haven't gone through it with the players yet. But we believe in the process. It's just kind of how we're going about it from week to week. We think the process is right. Are we taking it into the games and actually executing it in the games like we are at training, because at training, it works, but there's no pressure so it's just trying to make sure it does transfer from training to games. And we think if we believe in the process, continue with the process that it should turn itself around. But we'll make some slight changes just to make sure that what we're doing is the best thing for the players.
“(We’ll involve) elements of fatigue or if it's pressure - so trying to stimulate them so that they feel like they're under pressure, that there's something on the line of training that might make that transition easier. These are all little things that we're thinking about even, are we replicating the same shots that are getting in the game here at training. Little things like that where the data says we're falling down in a certain area we'll try and implement that.
“Chad's been running the program – the goal kicking program - and he's put a mountain of work into it, and so have the players. It's almost unjust that it hasn't transferred into the games, considering how much focus they've put on it, and how much commitment they've shown in that space. We're hoping almost for their benefit, they start to see some reward for their effort.”
