Lets not forget that its bloody hard to be accurate by hand let alone by foot when in a congested situation. Just ask Judd.
His deposal efficiency must have dropped a fair way when he had to become a contested player rather then an outside runner in his WC days.
I remember Juddy blindly handballing 15-20 metres forward out of a pack time and time again sometimes it hit a teammate other times it didn't and would land in the opposition hands. Its used to frustrate me a bit but as he did it time and time again it dawned on my (from the comfort of my couch) it must be a lot harder then it seems to use the ball cleanly when blokes have arms on you and in Judds case were hanging off him.
Put in this way I would rate Cripps general field kicking as clean as anyone in our team. His goal kicking has been below par but that's it IMO.
