Short and Balta = 60+ no problem
Dusty, Cumberland, Gibcus, Lunch, Vloss, Shai = 55ish
Rioli, JackR, Pickett, Ross and Macca around 52

Expecting Taranto and Hopper can hoof it over 50, You'd think that they should.

Not sure about any of the up and comers. WhatYaReckon?

Impressed with Gibcus's boot. 50m bullet passes no problems. Shai is elite for distance and off very little run up.

Still pissed off at that play on call when Balta was having a shot from 50+ (not the one where he used up all his time). **** umpires.
 
Shorty is an amazing long kick given he's not a big guy. Must have a lot of core strength or something. In golf, club head speed contributes to distance, maybe it's the same with kicking? He's like a rifle.
but cant hit simple 20 metre passes

Shortys left is longer than most of our boys natural kicking foot, it’s gonna be a good weapon to have

I think its his timing and his motion where more weight gets behind his kicks due to his action and makeup
 
The best kick in the side is Dustin Martin. He could put a footy in your lap through the sunroof on a fast moving limo from a neighbouring suburb and wouldn't spill your beer or your fries. He's also give you a wink and a grin and do it again the next time.

If you're talking torpedoes he's also the longest kick in the team. He could kick a torp over the top of the Shane Warne stand and land it in an eski on the Richmond train station platform so that it settled in the ice and was nice and chilled by the time you got that Sherrin home.

While he would be doing that he'd be signing off on a new $5M development of an old warehouse/brewery in Abbotsford with one hand and pointing out the only blank space on his leg where the '23 Cup tatt is going to go with his left.

Just sayin' the bloke has mystical powers when it comes to kicking a football. He's our Superboot.
