Agree with most already mentioned. Going back a bit further Glenn Hawker was always reliable on set shot
Hawker is still one of the better kicks to a leading player I’ve seen at Essendon. He had a beautifully weighted, unhurried kick when on the run. Could’ve been a superb permanent half forward but was too valuable off half back, wing or through the midfield because of his disposal.

Scary thing for Jones is it includes first game yips. If he kicks 2 goals 1 instead of 0-3 in round 1 and his conversion rate goes up to 85%

This. As soon as he kicked his first against the Saints you knew he'd be fine from thereon!

Scott Lucas. Beautiful kick. The fish was accurate but was mostly putting them thru from 25 out.

Lloydy. Fantastic shot for goal.

Out of the current squad - has to be Walla. Jones is proving to be a serious contender to his throne, however.
