My six are in no particular order:

Jack Watts

Neville Jetta ( Not a long kick but boy is he accurate)

Dom Tyson

Lynden Dunn

Bernie Vince

Jeremy Howe

These are just my thoughts. What do others think?

Christian Salem and Jack Watts are by far the two best kicks on the team

1. Watts

2. Salem

3. Dunn

4. Vince

5. Kent

6. N Jones or Tyson

In no particular order these are the guys I'd like kicking for my life:

Jack Watts

Christian Salem

Lyndon Dunn

Jeremy Howe

Bernie Vince

Chris Dawes

Watts

Salem

Dunn ( when he doesn't get too cute)

Jones ( cudo's - gone from iffy to ultra reliable)

Jetta

Vince

Watts

Salem

Tyson

Dunn

Jetta

Jones (most improved)

I think we pretty much all agree

Powell

Ingerson

Holland

Hopgood

Seecamp

Godfrey.

Sorry, I'm playing - I'm still in a good mood

No love for Strauss? Though he's not exactly in the team, is he...

Watts, Dunn, N. Jones, Salem, Howe, Vince

Tyson is either very good or very bad (very good more).

Jetta very good over short distances.

Watts

Salem

Daylight

Vince

Dunn

Howe

No love for Toumpas?

Powell

Ingerson

Holland

Hopgood

Seecamp

Godfrey.

Brian Dixon would beat that mob.

Brian Dixon would beat that mob.

Don't remember him playing....was he a shocker?

There was a segment on SEN a few weeks back where they were looking at some new champion data stat that rated kickers.

Ratings were based on the difficulty of the kick, length of the kick, kicking efficiency, pressure/no pressure... etc

They read out the top two players from every club, and none of them were players you'd expect.

Maxwell was one of the two for Collingwood.

One of our two was Georgiou!

I think he has lovely footskills but is still a bit panicked at this stage. With experience it will be a weapon.

1) Dunn

2) Kent

3) Salem

4) Watts

5) Vince

6) N. Jones

Watts

Salem

Dunn

Vince

Kent

Roos

He was a champion wingman of our premiership teams of the 50's. He won the ball a lot and then just bombed the ball forwards with high, floating mongrel punts. It was Ok in these times as it was man on man all the time.

precision kicking in those times was more of a rarity. Barassi was hardly a pinpoint kick. Bang the ball onto the boot and let the next in the chain battle it out.

Difficulty and pressure are a bit subjective.

For example, Maxwell would consider a 15 meter kick with only the opposition's runner within 20 meters a difficult kick under pressure :D

Agree, his action is good but his application is lacking at this stage. A lack of composure and sometimes trying to be a bit cute at the moment let him down.

Dom Tyson

Lynden Dunn

Bernie Vince

Jeremy Howe

These are just my thoughts. What do others think?

I would rate them a bit differently,as to what part of the ground and situation.Kicking at goal under pressure/on the run.

All rounder for all situations,atm Vince.

Watts is in the 10 best field kicks in the AFL.

Powell

Ingerson

Holland

Hopgood

Seecamp

Godfrey.
