AFL Rd 24 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs St, Kilda

[LP]

Yep, remember that video around the time of his drafting? Seriously talented. I have not seen a kick like him at Carlton.

Heath Scotland was superb, indistinguishable on left or right.

Whilst I don’t believe Scotland’s kicking was that bad, I too remember the commentary in here, there were plenty who shared your opinion.
To see someone waxing so lyrical though… ?

Yes, i was probably one that had a distaste for his style of entry.

Kick long 50m on either foot, absolutely.

Just don't bother leading for it because the whole opposition would be able to get back and help out by the time it landed.

Fev was asked about who he liked delivering the ball to him, Murphy, Scotland etc He answered with Hoops (aka Houlihan)
Now there was a kick of the ball!

It was a good trick but he overdid it, with the inevitable 40 metres up and 40 long chip kick on his left you can say he telegraphed it a bit.  I'd hate to be the bloke up the ground waiting for it to come down.

I don't ever remember Scotland spearing one laces out. He tend did to kick it high.

While we one this topic I seem to remember one M Mansfield had some good hang time in his kicks as well.

Why you gotta poke the bear. lol

Remember the Ben Dixon kick after the siren to beat us?
I was there.
Earlier on the day i remember Mick Mansfield diving backwards towards goal to take a mark (that was going through our goals) but he fumbled it and went through for a point. At the time i already had a dislike for him and his recruitment. I commented to my mate, i betcha that stupid idiot costs us the game with that.

Fast forward to the end of the game......

Mansfield...
When he was at Geelong I remember him being a player I'd love to have.
We got the dregs of his career.
He came to us we were an ageing side and his last season was that horror show in 2002.

:o Mate Scotto was one of the the better kicks I've ever seen (on both sides).
