Ken Gee was pretty good.
No reason to believe that a prop can’t kick if they have the confidence

I think it may need to go elsewhere. He looks to have lost confidence with it and if that knocks on in to his general
Play, that’s no good. The question would be who’d take over? I recall Wardle kicking a few in the past and asked a Huddersfield fan about him and he said he was a fantastic kicker in his academy days. Hampshire maybe bit you wouldn’t expect him to stay in the side in the longer term.


Suspect Field will be given a go with his return imminent.

Stick with Smith, he’ll come good.

The Roosters had a prop who kicked goals a couple of seasons ago, can't remember who it was, thought it might have been Tetevano I was thinking of, who's now at Leeds, but it's not him.

It was Taukeiaho (not a clue if that spelling is right), who is now at Catalans.

Smith is a good goal kicker we’ve seen him been faultless in the past . He will come good on a more regular basis.

That's kind of my point.

We need props and potentially a SR. Let's not get too concerned with signing someone just because they can kick goals.

I worry about us more when we’re attacking on the opposition line, than I do attacking from our own half and part of that is because we lack a player who can pull the trigger accurately on a pass but also because we lack punch in the forwards or the type of player that is just difficult to stop close to the line. If you have those, your kicks do start becoming easier. Saints get regular try contributions from big, powerful forwards like Walmsley and Sironen but we lack that. It’s something I’m hoping Walters and whoever else comes in can solve and in turn it can improve the kicking percentages.

Good call, when was the last time one of our forwards broke a tackle and scored with a few players on their back?
