Goalkicking
Mate thanks but they would get me down listen politely, then thank me for input before throwing me to those I have bagged over the duration! Hell the slitheras would have to rescue me from certain lynching!

Aidan Johnson Cops 2 Match Ban
Great set shot routine, BUT again like fritta sometimes tries to guide the ball through rather than kicking through the ball as I have maintained!☺️

Time to go Goody?
Taken from later post but same thing applies so this is my take on this. The role of a coach, correct me if I am wrong is to teach players a brand of footy that wins games and also to enhance their skill set. The fact that we have been so very poor over a number of years at goal kicking is testimony that whatever the club has done is not working. What it comes down to is using biomechanical breakdowns, analysing ball drop, leg and foot alignments and providing remediation to eliminate flaws in the way the ball is kicked. If a player who is considered an excellent field kick but then can't drill a goal, the problem then could be mental. Years ago in my Phys Ed teaching days I devised a set shot routine drill which enabled remediation to players who were missing elementary goals. I won't go into it here but I was used by several A grade Amateur clubs who went on to win premierships. I might add the success rates of these techniques were high. It helped that I personally was a magnificent kick for goal, I made a sunkick final ( Remember those ) but lost out to a guy that went on to play many VFL /AFL Games and was a noted "Prodigious" Kick. So in answering your question um yeah if I could teach it then and succeed why can't professionally well paid coaches do it??? Ah the ultimate swingman then?? For the record he booted 3 great goals a month ago after starting in the backline. FWIW The football dept DROPPED an in form T.Mac for an injury ravaged overated CHB in Lever. My Take is Petty also is MUCH better suited to playing back than forward as well.

PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs St. Kilda
And don't get me started on the fact that we sold another game for $$$ and didn't win! As Ross Lyon said serious footy clubs don't sell home games!
