Interesting exchange on Anzac Day with a fellow supporter.
I was pointing out that nearly every free kick that we received was in the back half of the ground. He turned and told me that he was sick of hearing me pointing them out.
My reasoning for making a note of where we were getting the frees was because although we received plenty, they weren’t as in damaging positions as the ones that went against us.
So although our differential is +45, I’d love to know the breakdown where we have received them and also conceded the free kicks.
Plenty of teams have kicked goals from free kicks against us this season.
I don’t think that we have kicked as many goals from frees as we have conceded.
It’s not how many you get, it’s where you get them!!! _________________ - Side By Side - |

What matters, of course, is not how many free kicks were paid and where but how many correct and incorrect free-kick decision went for and against us. Unfortunately, such statistics are not recorded. |

Getting a free in the backline can save you from conceding a goal. _________________ Well done boys! |
