I disagree with both of you - I'd call them boths snaps.

 

Im with jason. ( fn hilarious btw ) its a stupid and low percentage option. lairising at practice seems way cool, but gameday is always different.

talk about lairising, I used to work at the mcg and every Collingwood game Daisy would be out there way before anyone else, trying the dribble shots from the boundary line, so that when his time came in the game for that, the crowd would lose their sh*t...

the side angle way of kicking was generated by the rugby kickers who have an average of 90%

their way of kicking translates to accuracy and afl players have taken this on board

if you DONT believe go to your local park and have a go at kicking the ball 30 metres with a NORMAL action and the SIDE action, think the result will surprise.

when you kick this way its amazing how strait the ball goes

I guess were you kicking on the windy cliffs at Flinders, it may well go into the strait, Bass Strait in fact, but probably not straight.

  • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

    Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.
