Cameron has gotten better at kicking over time, sure Gooch can too.
True, but what concerns me is he did it his whole junior career and doesn't look like things have changed.... yet.

Charlie just struggles to pull up and compose himself, and hence he sprays shots left, right, helicopters, bit of all sorts.

But like I said, gooch does the exact same fading wobbler out the right hand point post every time. He's got stacks of time on his hands to correct it no doubt, but it's a real shame coming from such a good kicker of the ball. I think the fact that he does the same thing more often than not, will be harder to fix than say Charlie's issue.

How good was that handball by Singnorello!
It's about the only good thing he's done of late. He's had 2 shockers the past fortnight. Seems to really be struggling at sanfl level.

He gets ragged dolled a lot for someone that looked so strong and quick of mind in his tapes, but then again he barely looks like he's put on any size in comparison to someone like Jars who is slowly building.

Think we are gonna have to wait til next year with another decent pre season in the gym before we really start to see the real Sig.

Agreed . Watched him last 3 years and it's consistently the same

Loses all shape when kicking on run for goal . And they go everywhere

And people reckon Wigg is bad kick . Sheesh

Ps how was Wiggs kicking ? Noticed he had 5 tackles too
Was great today, better than the last few weeks. Still has absolutely no right foot which is a shame.

The club really should give him an extended crack, but again if he didn't come in for Brown, plus given the run of games we have coming up and who is coming back into the side, I can't see it happening.

Concur or are you disagreeing?

I'm a huge Knight fan but he's been pretty darn rusty at AFL level this year - is he at any risk at all of being replaced by Menzel?

I haven't seen any of last night's game but appears to have been a very strong performance by the Menz.

Umm, I's wrong to not know kick-ins don't count towards stats.

Umm, bit quick to try and score a point chief. I actually stated the rule in the post you quoted. There's two components you need to concern yourself with when replying to posts. The first is reading and the second and most important is comprehension. I'm sure your reading is fine, part 2 needs work.

I wasn't trying to score a point - and I didn't see Mackay do any kick to himself during kick-ins at the game.

Oh, the egg on face was referring to myself in my orig post.

How do you think the Margery votes would have gone would he have got 3 or 2

Says a bit about how he compares to the crows reserves team

Most of us knew this was his level. He's a very good SANFL player is Mitch.

Looking at Wiggs stats that's almost the complete game for the second time in 3 games

30 possessions 9 clearances 5 tackles and 2 goals ( numerous I50s and metres gained no doubt )

If that can't get you on the emergency list then they are just being arseholes and typically stubborn

Edit 6 I50s/4 rebound 50s wow
I wouldn't get your hopes up, his card is stamped going by our selections.

He's in the Grigg's no mans land spot.

He was talking about himself not knowing, not you.

Perhaps your own comprehension needs a quick polish?

For me he seems not to realise the change in pace from his u18s to SANFL level and just turns into trouble so easily. Needs to think quicker, although he did it at the end with a really nice handball, but that was close to the only one for the whole game.
