He kicked a goal from just outside the 50. Therefore the kick was at least 55m.

I think he's sorted it out.

He had tight hamstrings a few weeks ago hence the reason he struggled kicking long.

As he was lining up for that kick i said to my uncle that his only downside was he wouldn't be able to make that 50+ distance... Well he proved me wrong (and i was happy about it)

Sign this kid on a boyd deal now lock him away for another 7 years 1 mill +

It does not matter that he cant kick goals from 40+ meters, he will take heaps of contested marks close to goal, and he will improves his kicking from 40 +

I was sitting next to my old man at the game and said the exact same thing. Haha

You can watch the goal here http://www.afl.com.au/video/smart-replay

He kicked it right on the 50 metre line and it cleared the fence Was definitely his best strike so far in his young career.

It's the second of our goals

Lands about 5 rows behind the fence

No problems folks

I also think that his kicking penetration drops late in games as he gets tired

He had another shot from around 50m later in the game and it wasn't quite as good

He obviously is still working on his fitness, and with this improving so will his kicking. We often see skills drop in young players as the game and the season wears on.

What have they done to the other one?

WWE terminates contract with Hulk Hogan

we signed him for 10 years yet?

Oh boy, I nearly had a heart attack when I read that headline.

A lot of money this week for Jesse and has moved into equal favourite for the Rising Star. Will be outright favourite soon you'd think

Been a lot of industry chatter this week after that damning non-effort vision from Cripps last week.

One more blinder from Hogan and it's his.

Might come down to dees v carlton

Hope he wins it.

Viney to Cripps will be the showdown of the century.

And by showdown, I mean Viney burying Cripps' head into the turf for 120 minutes.

Surely it's the easiest way around to double your money. Couldn't believe he was still paying $2.15 last night.

Jesse simply has to win the rising star.

Going to finish with 40 goals and number 1 in the comp in contested marks! Cripps should not even be in the conversation

Cripps should be in the conversation, but only to say: “Cripps would win any other year, but Jesse Hogan is a once in a generation forward, so…."

Hope he gets up I got on him at $12 at start of year, cripps had a good game today need hogan to play a blinder tommorow

Cripps was all quality today , seems to have a lot of time with the ball,,,deserves the rising star award ahead of Hoges IMO

Yeah, na.

How Cripps slipped so far down the draft I will never know.

Yeah, na.

Why not? I havent seen a first year midfielder as good as him for a while, and it's not like he can feed off a Gary Ablett like O Meara did in his first ,Cripps had 35 disposals yesterday...

2nd year midfielder

Didn't he get taken higher than expected? Everyone was saying too slow.
