No current season stats available
Stevo can unleash one.Wouldn’t be awesome if we picked up with the specific purpose of brining the torp back.
One thing to be dissapointed but if he hasn't addressed this over the off season he is taking the piss.I am sure that no one is disappointed more than Jack.

I'd settle for us being reliable 30m out dead in front.
Good appointment. Hope he teaches Larkey how to do set shots from 80m out.
Can Euge come back too?
Sometimes it easier to kick long cos you can focus on just getting the technique right to get maximum distance. Probably should do that from close up too but lots of people kick with a slight arc left to right or vice versa thru the air. That might be what causes that cos Ziebell isn't the only one who does it. Lots of players from across the comp have struggled in a similar way over the years. For the exact reason you mention about Ziebs. Stabbing at the ball instead of kicking thru it.Ziebell is my major disappointment because he just stabs at the ball instead of kicking through it, it is just a sloppy technique which isn't reliable enough. He is such a beautiful kick, to see him hack it from 30m when he so easily and more accurately kicks from 50m because his technique is better at longer range is really odd, most people struggle with range.

The biomechanics of modern football training has affected long kicking significantly ferbs.
Speed & endurance are now the deciding factors for AFL footballers.
If they somehow manage to slow the game down, then the bigger legs will return.

Maybe he can teach most of our list how to proficiently kick an old fashioned Torpedo, a dying art these days, i have heard Blighty on numerous occasions say that all players should have this string to their bow.
