We're terrible at it. Is it coached to only kick 15 yards when in your own half?

I constantly bang on about this. It’s weird. We’re struggling to get off our ten and then you get a penalty and send it out on the twenty. It’s absolute madness and happens ALL the time. The Dave Lyon 50 yard penalty kick will come back into vogue soon enough I hope.

Remeber Hesford used to place kick it out.

When territory is key it baffles me that a penalty kick is treated so nonchalantly. Lack of ingenuity is shocking, they can’t even think inside the box these days!!

Bang on.
Considering the game is now obsessed with stats, I'm surprised most teams don't do this, so they can eek out the most possible yards, before they start a set of 6. Plus, it rules out the nonsense of kickers "not finding touch" when kicking from hands.






Neither glass half full or empty. Just a realist.

Didn't Ratchford kick to touch regularly at one time & get plenty of yardage ?

Yes, He did but that`s in the past now.

I don`t want him anywhere near our starting 13 next season.

Now that it looks like Dwyer has signed for us after all, I can`t see how we fit Ratchford into our 17 either?

The way I remember it Hesford did this when it was a particularly windy day, not as a matter of course.
David Lyon’s had a howitzer of a kick.
I was always surprised at how far the ball was/is kicked in Union but wonder if it is down to the type of ball. Anyone shed any light on this?






Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.
