setshot-- Cam bruce lol.. joke. Robbo 100%

On the run-- Davey

ud would be surprised he is usually very good from 45m and tough angles

id go with

robbo- its wat he does, kicks goals alot of the time from the pockets

green- very good set shot

Yze - very good foot skills

davey no- he always runs around the mark too much when he is 40-50 out, i can see him kicking the goal and the umpire saying no goal u ran of ur mark.

Considering the siren has sounded, I hope it's not a shot on the run we're talking about ;)

edit: High Tower - I imagine RR realises, and just wanted to add his 2c on who he likes from that distance on the run.

Correct.

Edit: High Tower- If you see my set shots your question is answered. I extended the answer to think who would I want with the last scoring kick in a game. Hradly challenging but there you go.

Jeff White. He's a great kick from 40-55m from goal, and has won us the game to make the finals against the Dogs.

Ditto. BTW, the minutes after he kicked that goal were the most gut-wrenching of my life. Also, this is the kind of awesomely pointless topic I love. Keep, 'em coming!

You may laugh, but when it really mattered, he'd kick it, and it would be beautiful to watch.

Robbo would get overexcited

Green would push it out to the right and just miss

Colin - your kidding aren't you?

Greeny for me.

His radar may not be as superb as when he was primarily a young forward, but I think he'd still come through on the big occassion.

Wonaeamirri has a very calm and thorough set shot style from what I've seen.

Surprise one would be Jeff White - totally unflappable and a decent kick at goal.

Except a good portion of the crowd (myself included) would die of heart failure between the time he lined up and put boot to ball... it would make for a rather dull post-win celebration :P

There's only one MFC player who instils greater fear in me when kicking for goal and that's Jamar.

while he looks awkward, he's deceptively efficient in front of goals dutchy... just when he does miss, he can make a real meal of it...

Siren has sounded. Trailing by 5 points. This is for the premiership. WHO would you select of the current players to take the kick - the kick that matters! As if your life depended on it! The man standing on the mark is 40 mtrs from goal.

Personally I would of selected the great man David Neitz. But he is retired now, so I would put it all on the line with......Colin Sylvia. But by geez I would be nervous.

What's your selection? Let's take a poll. Brad Green?

Definitely not Simon Eishold!!

#1 - Daniel Bell.

#2 - Robbo, for sure.

Surprised Jeff White hasn't been mentioned more, he's a great kick. One of the best kicks of any ruckman in the league. He'd be there or there-abouts when the pressure was on. Robbo, Belly, White, Brad Green IF it was 45° on the right, Wonnaemirri looks the goods but distance could be a problem...

(Bell was a joke :P)

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
