Best footskills

[Lingsface]

In another thread the debate of footskills for several players have gathered momentum.

Peter Daicos and Darren Jarman seem to get a mention a lot, I pushed for the Akermanis as best post 2000. Some other names I remember where Leon Cameron

Martin that’s got to be a joke? Great player but is probably the worst part of his game.

Yes beautiful kick of the football agree with that. Daniel Rich as well is a beautiful kick as well as Shannon hurn.

 

[Bradkli]

Sam Mitchell was a superb kick on both feet.

 

[RUNVS]

Of the current Swans players I would go with Gulden. Not only makes the right decision almost every time but he seems to always execute the kick he needs to do perfectly.

Don't be ridiculous. Is this why you started the thread. He's one of the top 5 kicks in the game.

, oh and a little known bloke by the name of Nathan Buckley....ever heard of him?

 

[Milanista28]

Gulden and Keidean Coleman are 2 of the best young kicks I can remember seeing, both elite.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

oh and a little known bloke by the name of Nathan Buckley....ever heard of him?

No, who is he? Is he a premiership player?

 

[HugeJohnson]

No, who is he? Is he a premiership player?

Yep




His proudest moment in the black and white

Leon Cameron was very fluent on both feet and accurate, but the bolded were on another level

Both Mitchell and Aker could really hurt the opposition, Mitchell probably the better vision, Aker the xfactor and penetration

Aker for me

On a side note, at a VIC coaching accreditation course, they used Didak for their training videos for the best kicking technique

Agree. Dusty does some miraculous stuff on occasion, and pulls off some of the most freakish kicks that others would never have the stones to even attempt, but you're right, he's been known to scuff a few too.

If we're nominating a Richmond player it's Dion Prestia. His delivery by foot is glorious.
