    Kick after the final siren to win the game -

    AFL article
    The Inquirer: The straight shooters - AFL.com.au
    Who would you feel most comfortable with (current seniors ie:not Plugger) the ball in their hands for a shot on goal after the siren to win the game?

    My thinking too. Before that I probably would have put Jude.

    He, unlike the others IIRC, has actually done it. Then again his accuracy is only around 50%, 25.24 for his career

    These days, probably actually Jetts. Though even if Drej has been 50-50 overall, how many of those misses are set shots?

    Kennedy or Macca would suit me. The tighter the angle, the more I would lean towards Macca. If it is 30-40m out, Jude would be a decent choice too but from further than that, I would back Kennedy or McVeigh to more consistently make the distance even on tired legs.

    Jude...hmmmm ...I still have that soda he missed in the 06 GF firmly planted in my head...Though I agree generally he's very reliable from mid range.

Despite last weekend, Mummy is also an excellent set shot and I would be happy with the ball in his hand. Mal is also a great kick. Captain Jack if it is a kick on the run.
    Despite their experience I would avoid Goodesy and ROK like the plague. Jude was in that category too until a year or two back but in recent years his set shots have been pretty good.
