I'm very concerned by Rhyse's last kick. He seemed to rush it a bit more than usual when he didn't need to. Better we tie up the game before worrying about extra time. Basically shows either he can't kick under pressure or he had a wager on the Storm ?

Or he's still fairly new in FG and human. He will learn heaps from this and next time when perhaps it counts a lot more than we will be ok.

Haha nah he’ll be right, just didn’t strike it cleanly. Interesting about the rushing bit, I wonder if the fine he copped was playing on his mind?
Immense pressure and he’ll be better for it.

i thought he took a lot longer than usual.
I wouldnt be concerned by it at all. Jarrod Croker had a blunder in his first situation like that (albeit in a final) and he's turned out ok

He missed a pressure kick in Reggie’s earlier this year as well.Dutchy has won 2 games with pressure kicks in first grade so may have been a better option.

Seriously? He looked like he took his time with it to me.... he’s not the first very good kicker to miss one under pressure. To challenge his integrity like that is completely classless....and absurd.

The pressure really fucked him, was very overwhelming! I hope this was the case, he is a sharp shooter.. and the look on his face on the big screen.. he was shell shocked..!

Just bad luck and don't forget he was just fined ( or the club was) for time taken over the limit to kick. Not that it would have mattered because time is automatically called out in the last five to circumvent time wasting once a conversion is taken and the ball is being returned to half way.

What I did not like about the whole thing was the way they basically shoved the camera in his face after the game ..poor bloke was beside himself that he missed the kick but no they can't leave him alone. Bet if it was the illustrious CAMMMMMM Smith they would have been straight up to him to console him rather than seek to basically embarrass him.

Admin/Mods,

We need IQ tests to become members here.

Yeah I know I may have failed the test.

Was he a kicker in reserve grade before finally make the grade? Just don’t remember him being called a sharpshooter before his debut.

Anyways it was unlucky these things happen
