Hahaha c'mon now it's been a long season.
I am ok with the Goal kicking of Lolohea - waht I am concerned about is what if he is injured. I assume that Benji must be the back up FB because otherwise we would not have a goal kicker unless Ivan intends to train someone up over the offseason. I think it would be a good bow to Brooks game but not sure if he has the ability to kick goals
Well, with two good kickers when they played in Ivan and Hodgo.. would hope they'd be able to train one of the guys up during the offseason and preseason, if it's lolohea or someone else.
75%
Cmon guys. Lets Switch him with Benji for a season, give Suli, Liddle, some other new guy a try… Mix it up.
Then we can put him back on kicking for one game, disturb his workflow and method. take him off kicking and tell him not to train for it. Then put him back quickly for one game and blame him for costing us 2 points.
We can get that back to Brooks 66% if we try harder.

If you got points for hitting the woodwork he'd have won more games than lost for us.

The rest of the team are letting Tui down by not scoring under the goalposts .

No, I think that is just Brooks fault. He can't direct the team. :smiley:

he has a very inefficient approach to the ball imo. its not smooth, and with his lack of momentum when he strikes it may as well have no run in at all.
im surprised he makes the distance most times!
either he needs to improve (quite possible over the off-season with hodgo, cleary) or they need a better kicker. Hodgson himself showed the value of a good kicker.

Brooks would find a way to kick under the crossbar and still clear the dead ball line on the full.

I don't care what Tui's run in looks like as long as he kicks them. Plenty of fast bowlers have a stutter prior to the delivery point because that's how they naturally develop their style and it helps them with their balance and timing. It all just becomes part of the muscle memory and completely changing a bowling style or kicking style would just waste hundreds of hours of training. Tweaks to a style can be integrated but major changes are a waste of time.

…but he's not.
Tui has his own particular technique and style..kicking goals is much like hitting golf balls straight…its called ALIGNMENT,once he gets that right he will have a much better success rate...trust me on this one...TT was pretty good at kicking goals himself..around about 85 % success rate.... :sunglasses:
