It’s probably the only part of Prestia ‘s  game which stops him from being elite. Otherwise he is nearly the complete player

His field kicking is average too IMO.

It’s so hot and cold. Sometimes you see him about to go for a risky kick back through the corridor or across goal and you say to yourself please no and then he hits them right between the eyes.

Geez that's poor. A good forward should be going at 60-65% at least.

Lynch could easily have 40+ if he'd bagged a few more sitters

I actually thought Prestia was kicking very well on Saturday, but we were playing against witches hats.

That's a disservice to witches hats.....
