I reckon Newnes could take that shot another 100 times and probably never kick it again....that said, he got the one that mattered.

Gibbons looked like he was disappointed not to get the kick.
He thought he could slot it

Maybe he's simply burdened by the expectation he's placed upon himself in the role of skipper? And maybe he's working through that as his form has definitely improved and is closer to what we all know and he, no doubt, expects.

I'd back Gibbons in from there most nights.
But....it was late in the game, with a wet-ish ball.
TBH, i don't think he'd make the distance from there.....knowing you'd need to kick it 50+ to clear the players on the line.
With Newnes.....i said that "he usually kicks as a goal a game and hasn't done it yet.....he knows how to kick a goal, but he isn't the greatest kick around the ground."
Thank f*ck it was a shot on goal he was taking!

The only difference is, that a real side would have put Freo away with 10 minutes to go when we kicked all those behinds.
we really failed to pile on the scoring when we needed to, which made it much closer than it should have been.
Carbon copy of Port game, roles reversed.
They peppered the scoreboard, but couldn't find the big ones until after it mattered. We should've been put away before then. Almost lucky to make it that far.
Only difference was, we got screwed over in front of goal in both games.......got a bonus on the freo game at the end though.

I didn't give Newness a hope in he'll of kicking that. I had already accepted the loss.

You can see cupping marks under his jumper but I recall seeing those last year so again, hard to tell. I just reckon he is trying to too hard. I cant remember who made the comment on TV or radio but they compared Fyfe and Cripps playing style. Fyfe sits off the contest at a ball up then moves in hitting it on the move. Cripps sits under it more and gets belted as soon as he wins it. As Diesel also said on SEN, he loves the physical contact but too much. Needs to sit off it a little more and minimise the hits.
Watched him closely on Saturday night and he was really laboring when running. Could be groin issues which might make senses as he is not getting any penetration with his kicking. They are more going up higher than longer, which may make sense of why he may of tried to run around 3 players in a previous game a few weeks ago when taking a set shot from 50.

Reported a month ago that Cripps had an injured sternum.
I think i recall him having potential quad issue at one stage too.
Whether its knee, groin, quad or whatever......he has never been a confident kick. Especially from 50. He lacks penetration from set shots.
