Backup Goal Kicker

[Guest]

Ive never seen SKD kick before as well doesnt look like he can either.My guess would be Morts or Oldfield who kicked in the lower grades at Manly.

Great Q mate. I was thinking the same myself. I notice a couple reckon its no big deal. I reckon it is a huge deal as there is no standout. Say what we want about braith, bit he was a decent backup for fitzy. Turning 4 into 6 consistently, can be the difference between winning and losing.

I have never seen SKD or the others mentioned on here kick (besides morts who will be lucky to play FG anyway) so havent got a clue who would be the option.

well then lets hope maloney doesnt get injured. even then, im sure skd wouldnt be bad with the boot (he has kicked goals in previous seasons) and who do you think would replace maloney if he were to get injured? mortimer.

I realise that Keg. But its more about Maloney getting injured during a game. If he goes down in the first 10 minutes. Not who replaces him the next week. Morts would be obvious then.

I think I remember skd kicking a couple in 1 game, but nothing more. By the sounds of things, Oldfield is handy, but once again who knows if he will play fg either.

Didn't know that Cordner can kick. If he follows in CF foot steps the Chooks are lucky with this guy.

Didn't know BJ can kick in fact I can't recall ever seeing him kick. It was a blurry year that last one.

i dont think its that big of a deal. if maloney goes down in the first ten minutes, thats unlucky. for the rest of the game, we might have to focus on just scoring more tries than the opposition. if it gets tight, try and improve the position for the back up goal kicker. i mean, how hard is it to convert from right next to the posts?
i understand your concern, but i dont think there is anything to worry about.

he didnt kick. anasta was stubbornly kept in the side each week, and he never exerted himself enough to get injured during a game.

SKD has definitely kicked a few-3..... If Cordner is good on the boot his stocks just get better and better. Can Pearce kick? RTS?

[Guest]

RTS has the extensive albeit short career in Union, and in my experience not to many young union backs that cant goal kick or have the basics to be developed, I would be willing to back he can kick a ball...

SBW.

He would of been the Doggies kicker if they didn't have El Maseri.

Imagine the 2013 GF is 20 all & the fulltime hooter has sounded & SBW has to put it over to win it but the kicking tees have gone missing so an announcement is made asking if anyone had a kicking tee or something that resembled a kicking tee.
ralphy a stauch Rooster supporter who had cycled from the Netherlands to attend the GF thought to himself that maybe his well worn SBW seatpole could be used as the tee, so he waddles off to get it & makes his way to where his SBW seatpole can be assessed.
On inspection it is discovered that the SBW seatpole has been well used by ralphy & because of this excessive use the seatpole now resembled a kicking tee. So it was rushed out for SBW to personally handle ralphys prize possession & set up for the game & comp. SBW comes in & kicks it, it is long enough it is straight enough it go's straight over the black dot.

The crowd go's beserk SBW is named Clive Churchill winner. In his exceptance speech he said that he couldn't have kicked the winner without the SBW well worn seatpole now resembling a kicking tee.

ralphys still not happy because he never got his SBW seatpole back, it's on display at the club.

Who are we playing? Who scored the try to tie the game up? Why did SBW miss the other goal? That try should have taken it to 22-20 with the kick to come if he was such a good goal kicker.. Did RTS score the equaliser playing wing at all? Cause that would really annoy Kegs and a few others if he did, from wing. Did friend make the linebreak to create the try at all? Because if the other team only has 20 points then that suggests that Nafe isn't playing cause other team would be 50 from his missed tackles. Or did we elect to go with an all backrow bench? Just because we can...

Is this how it feels to be lemon goat...... Hmmm

[Guest]

Cordner has done those restarts from the halfway line and gets them well into the in goal, so I say he'd b worth a go.

Text Anasta...He could kick them way over the deadball line on kickoffs...He could probably land one from Leichhardt...lol...

[ROC181]

he didnt kick. anasta was stubbornly kept in the side each week, and he never exerted himself enough to get injured during a game.

Phew!!!! I thought I was suffering from memory loss...

You would have to get a hold of his Pumas to know that.

SKD was second choice not BJ

[Guest]

Maloney will be our first choice goal kicker. BJ was our second choice kicker? Who do you think will take over as the backup goal kicker?
Any ideas.
KR

I Do Believe our back up goal kicker may in face be RTS/Pearce

I have seen both of them kick goals and both of them have range on them,
(Could be just having Fun but you never now)

Craig infact is the goal kicking instructor and has had a go with anyone that can kick including Boyd!
