It's funny but a used to be only able to name a handful of tigers players that are a reliable, efficient kicks but now I feel it is easier to name those who I feel are not reliable kicks.
For me I feel that Jackson, White, McGuane, Rance and Nahas are not consistent field kicks. Statistics may prove me wrong but this is how I see it. Have I missed any?
I thought about adding Maric but, despite having a very careful almost awkward style, he seems to pinpoint every kick I've seen him take.

Pretty spot on with your feeling there – missed King and Morris who can be a bit iffy. All regularly play in the same side so that's still a third of the side with dodgy kicks, but it used to be the opposite. Hopefully a good helping of those get moved on at the end of the year.

No doubt they will, if all goes well :shh

Agree. No more helicopters Grigga

Dont like Griggs kicking, although not terrible he never really "pinpoints" any kicks

Words are cheap. Over to you Shaun.

Morris shouldn't be included, he plays back with the very rare visit forward, only if he carry's on running...like saying the same of Kellaway!

Morris turns it over by foot, he should be included. Grigga wasn't talking just about goal kicking. And can't believe I missed giving Grigga his whack, although he was much much better last year.

Ah yes, sorry, thought it was goal kicking he focused on.

The Tigers have a lot of work today kicking the ball into the forward line based on what I saw last Friday night.....
