You've got to laugh at how the media work. After bagging Blingers since we drafted him they are now getting stuck into Buddy over his goalkicking yips.
Against Richmond, whether by design or coincidence, it became clear that when Franklin was shooting at goal he was doing so with Tiger players along his left-hand line. The result was that he had to run straighter in his kicking action and he converted poorly (1.7 that day). Certainly not all that inaccuracy would be ascribed to this theory but it would appear it did not hurt.
