‘Sick in the guts': Waterman rues missed opportunities in Eagles' loss
West Coast's Jake Waterman He is normally one of the most accurate kicks for goal in the competition. Waterman was All Australian last year, when he booted 53 goals, 23 behinds. Marking on the lead inside 50 it's almost automatic to start writing the goal down in the footy record – but Sunday at the MCG just wasn't his day. 'I'm so disappointed, when you kick three points, and we go down by two … absolutely gutted,' Waterman told 6PR's Wide World of Sports on Monday. 'The last two I struck them pretty well but just fell off them a bit which makes you pull them a little bit skinny. 'The game was full of moments like that, and you don't want to say it's your fault or what not, but I spent a bit of time after the game dwelling on those ones.' It made for a restless night, with Waterman admitting he struggled to get to sleep thinking about the missed goals. 'I'm not going to lie. I pride myself on that. It's my craft and my strength,' he said.
