Looks like he's thickened up in the thighs, where it counts most, which is great to see.

Good luck to him.

Should be able to kick 75m + then
80m +, 30 hit outs and average 4 goals per game!

Yeah sounds good

I hope we give Griffiths a licence to just go for goal if in range. Get him in the habit of kicking through the ball no matter how close or far out. He could have kicked at least 3 today instead of 1.3 if he stuck to the same kicking action even when closer to goal.

should be told every kick = 50m MINUMUM!
not sure he knows how to read the game, needing a SuperGoal in the dying minutes, he's 60-65 out and chips it short & turns it over...... i don't know...

Supergoals don't apply in real footy - really confident he was applying team rules and it didn't come off.

Only if there is a team rule saying to.  Happy with them having a licence to make a call in play and he did just that.

just needs to line himself up properly at goal and kick through the footy and he'll kick 50 goals in a season from CHF

That's more a sign of clueless coaches stuffing up his original game and inadvertently stealing his confidence.

I'm a believer of a different kind of kick for different distances so I disagree on changing his routine just to make it consistent

sometimes, you have to say stuff the team rules and take the game by the scruff of the neck to win it.  Your brain has to switch on, feel how the tide flows, and without panicking make a constructive decision, not act out a set of commands like a stuffing robot.

Good point.
Problem is this bloke always thinks he's in the gun so he's probably jumpy about rolling the dice.

I bet Newman would've had a shot

I reckon he knew he didn't have the leg and didn't want to put it on the line so they could punch it through and get the footy back.
