Henry Paul. Not up there with the very best, but a really good kicker all the same. Goal kicking Deacs has to be up there but definitely not in-game!!!!

Think he name is Barry Eaton who played in the NL a couple of years ago. Didn't he share some sort of record with Henry Paul or someone.

Botica certainly had a very high success rate but given that stats were not massive way back when it's difficult to compare accuracy percentages.

I always thought Lloyd was one of the most relaxed/natural goal kickers, Lee Crooks was underestimated I thought. Pearce with his union background was definitely one of the best I saw in a B&W jersey.

Massive kudos to Watkins/Fox et al when the balls were heavy and the pitches more so! Imagine how the kickers today would cope without a kicking tee.
