Ok, I think its time to end our talk bout Kicking. You have given some good points, and whoever is kicking I hope they do the best job of it that they can. Certainly, if we are any chance tonight we are going to need kicking to be a strong point along with our general play.

Yes, drop Kimmorley :roll: :

*Tonight he got 3/3 in which 2 were moderately hard
*His opposing goal kicker got 5/7, missing 2 kicks from spot Kimmorley got his
*Premier League kicker got 1/3


Conclusion, baring last week he as improved recently greatly, I actually feel confident he will get his kicks when he has a go.

Hazem kicked them from everywhere 7/7.
He is the best kicker I have ever seen.
I dont think there is much in the theory the Dogs score there tries under the posts so Hazem gets easier kicks than Kimmorley does at the Sharks.
The Dogs dont care where they score them because they know Hazem will convert them.

Im an idiot :roll: . What do you turn away everytime Kimmorley has been kicking recently? He has been kicking ok this season in particular since the Raiders game. Apart from the Melbourne game, hes been getting some hard kicks. Last night he got 3/3, 2 were from places a 80% kicker in Fitzgibbon mist near the sideline. Whats wrong with him now? You want him to kick it directly over the black dot? You dont like the way he kicks? I think you should be worrying more about our defence cos in comparison to that Kimmorleys kicking is 100%.

look i am noddies biggest fan

but we must recognise he is at best a below average goalkicker

also kick offs are landing way short - last night it cost us about 15 meters per kick off

i dont know what the answer is but goal kicking will cost us games this year

I have to agree Millers. I have noticed the kick off problem many times this year. I am glad you bought it up. Just about every other team gets the massively high kickoffs. The go up that bloody high that the defensive team is almost on top of the bloke catching it every time. They are deep too. Usually in the in goal.

Our ones are flat and usually not that deep. The attacking side is out over the 20m line on almost every occasion. Thta's 15m we are giving away for free and usually more. Not good enough. Let's get the small things, like this, right.
