The Hun today - I can't locate it online - listed the best and worst kicks in the comp. High in the best category was Jarrad McVeigh (I think second overall) but no other Swans in the top bracket.
A different story when they showed the comp's worst kicks. Out in front was Dan Hannebery, and Josh Kennedy and Luke Parker also featured in the top 5. No mention of Rhyce Shaw.
He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
This one I think. How I hate their auto-play videos!Originally Posted by dimelb
Matthew Boyd�s kicking top of the class after move to defence, writes Jon Ralph
Sounds like they use some fancy data which is probably not freely-available:
Champion Data rates kicking not on efficiency rates but on expected return � effectively factoring in the difficulty of a kick and the player�s position � with Boyd 8.6 per cent ahead of the curve.
Dan is a good kick, (as is Jordan Lewis). Rubbish article.

Dan kicks to team mates toes and ankles way too much, Josh isn't much better. They, in fact, all of our team could improve their disposal, both hand and foot, it's been a growing problem at our club for a few seasons now. This week we may see the 'fruits' of this malaise. I truly hope not......
I agree that Joey and Parks aren't great kicks but disagree completely on Hanners, if anyone doubts it re-watch the '12 grand final...his kicking was magnificent that day.

Also FWIW Jones also seems to have a pretty decent leg on him.
