I'll save yourself 11 minutes.
All injured players have some milestones they need to tick off and its a high performance question on when they'll be ready.
You're welcome.
Gee I like Sammy Hamill. Love to see him at the club for a long time. Excellent thinker and communicator.

How the fark does H spend a whole summer working on his goal kicking only to miss sodas from 15m on the very ground he practices on every day?

Like others I thought Kemp badly needed the gallop, most did some good things and Ed’s commentary was interesting from a Carlton perspective

I'm guessing that was the point he intended to kick from...he might need to rejudge that position if he's getting too close.

Its not rocket science. He can kick the ball around the ground just fine. Just pick a spot behind the goal, a person on the crowd of you can, and kick it to them. Forget about the goals, kick out it to your mate and the goals will take care of themselves.

Yep.
It's not rocket science.
It's Goalkicking 101.
It's how we were taught to kick for goals 50 years ago.
So you would have to think in the scheme of things that the suggestion has been made to Harry and he's tried it many times.
The problem isn't with the theory. It's with the execution.
It's the little man in his head.
Harry is a reasonably accurate and reliable kicker in general play.
There are two variables between field kicking. in general play. on the run and in the clear...and a set shot kick for goal.
The first is the difference between a straight approach and the around the corner one.
You don't often see an 'around the corner' kick in general play.
Immediately that's a decision that Harry has to make, when lining up for goal, which introduces a "something to think about"
He'd probably be better sticking with just one.
Eliminate the choice.
One less thing to occupy his thought process.
Secondly,in general play, a lot of Harry's accurate kicks are often on the run in the clear.
No "man on the mark".
Another thing to think about.
In training, I wonder whether Harry is practicing these numerous shots on goal with a man on the mark.

In ideal situations that man on the mark will also be reminding Harry about the bit of “chewy on his boot” ? match simulation ??

You just have to listen to his social media stuff to know how much it impacts him, directly and indirectly through his family and friends who are forced to listen to the bullshit fans hand out in the stands.

The AFL moving targets cover so much ground really only Harry knows whether his kick was marked where he intended. For AFL players on the lead it is just two steps less or more, and those two steps are more than the difference between centre of the goals and a behind.
