Saints: 12.1 - it’s only the third time a team has won kicking only 1 behind. The other two happened in 1897 and 1900!!!
Not a bad turnaround

It's where we're taking our shots from. Not many speculative shots from the arc near the boundary these days.

Closer to goal.

12.1 is actually more accurate than 18.2 in terms of %
(But I'd take 18.2 everyday!)

Re: Accuracy
A lot of luck that ports behinds weren’t goals we would have been under a lot more pressure.
But certainly a lot better this year in front of goals I’m liking it.

Our accuracy has come from better positions taking kicks - Last night we had one from 50 which we were able to drop mid range with confidence that something would happen (and we goaled) - 2 years ago - this would have to be a shot on goal from outside 50 because nothing went into the forward 50 with confidence.

Re: Accuracy
Funny Face?
Seriously - have we just resorted to name-calling now??
But I totally agree - we have been taught to take shots from a better position - so we get higher chances of success
I have been banging on about this for years - Roo used to use his athletic ability to take long leads - but would end up taking shots from the 50 in the pocket. Low percentage shots that would have been better if we had a forward leading to the 25-30 metre mark.
