Dixon would be good in that role, he’s done it before and has some good, strong views on goal kicking and training for it.

Yep. He's also a lefty, given some of our main offenders (eg Naughts, Marra and Bont) are also leftys, that can't be a bad thing.Dixon would be good in that role, he’s done it before and has some good, strong views on goal kicking and training for it.
I'm hearing Ben Dixon will be joining as goal kicking coach
If you're going to the trouble and expense to hire someone surley time will be allocated?Hopefully the club dedicates the time required for a goal kicking coach needs.
Is it as simple as the forwards get the bulk of the time while the remaining players get general guidance?Hopefully the club dedicates the time required for a goal kicking coach needs.
And if I win it's going straight to the mantle piece.
Also big media presence which can’t hurt our profile.Dixon would be good in that role, he’s done it before and has some good, strong views on goal kicking and training for it.

Not this boomer.
I was standing in the queue at Barkers Cafe with Bailey a couple of weeks before the first NAB Cup game of 2019 (no Jonno Patton anywhere in sight ).
Asked him how he was settling in.
He spent the next 10 minutes telling me how excited he was to be picked to play, how much he loved being at the club and how he couldn't wait for the season proper. Could barely contain his enthusiasm.
The media hype that has followed him since then is just that - hype.
He's a terrific kid with a great attitude. Can't speak highly enough of him.
Any idea if part time or full time?
I've always wondered about goalkicking coaches being former players. Strikes me as the kinda role that would be better suited to a biomechanist in concert with a sports psych.
I've always wondered the same.
Dixon is a flog BUT he's been a contractor goal kicking coach around the league for a while.
I cannot remember for the life of me who he worked with and they improved out of sight? Was it Cloke?
He bangs on about thinking about your best sexual experience during the run up or something which seems to work lol.
This does not bode well for any of the virgin drafteesI've always wondered the same.

Sports psych definitely, I’d hope this is already apart of our overall player development though?I've always wondered about goalkicking coaches being former players. Strikes me as the kinda role that would be better suited to a biomechanist in concert with a sports psych.
I’m well and truly in the Boomer generation and I spend so much time defending him at the footy. Most of the loudmouths yelling crap at him aren’t boomers, they’re young smartarse supporters of the big clubs (who would love to have him). Our home game against the Pies was spent listening to a 20 something flog who infiltrated the member’s section on the wing whose best and most repeated zinger was “get a haircut Smith”.
After a while I said and what difference would that make. He said well you can’t say you like it.
I told him I thought it was amazing and maybe you should check yours in the mirror before you go out next time. He was really grumpy after that
I also heard Chris Appleton the British “hair stylist” to the stars such Kim K, Ariana G, etc say on tv last week how good his mullet is. That beautiful mullet has gone global.
And even more importantly you couldn’t get me into a shirt if I looked like that
Let’s hope so, watching Toby Greene in Ballarat and Jai Newcombe in Tassie was very very frustrating as a supporter. And how some clubs curbed Nick Daicos late showed it can be done.Trading for Harmes and Signing Geary just shows Dogs are sick of not having a tagging player
Really glad they finally figured that weakness out
