Opinion Who will be our full time goal kicker in 2020?

[Scorpio]

1/Meaney??
2/Holland??

Will either be in the top 17?

 

[Horse]

Meaney.

 

[Scoooby]

Meaney with holland as back up

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Meaney because he's pretty much locked in for the season, not entirely sure if he's the best goal kicker in the 30 though.

 

[Bad Billy]

Meany.

 

[Spoonman84]

Meaney has a pretty decent average but I’m never confident with him for some reason.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

This is what our current options are kicking at..

Wakeham 84.2%
Holland 78.4
Meaney 76.7%

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

Have wakeham in the side. Gk duties solved

 

[doggieaaron]

Meaney is a brilliant kicker and will actually be in first grade

 

[Horse]

This is what our current options are kicking at..

Wakeham 84.2%
Holland 78.4
Meaney 76.7%

Not sure where you pulled your stats from but the ones I’ll be going off when assessing options for this season are;

Meaney 80% (2019 @ NRL)
Wakeham 70% (2019 @ Canterbury Cup)

I don't give a fuck what stats you're using.

 

[The DoggFather]

I don't give a fuck what stats you're using.

I'm more worried about scoring tries than converting them tbh

 

[KLil]

My sacks.

 

[Horse]

I don't give a fuck what stats you're using.

Are you responding aggressively because you’ve been caught out fabricating statistics?

Let’s keep things civil and stick to the facts.

 

[bradyk]

It will be Meaney unless Holland swindles his way into the side (I doubt it).

 

[DinkumDog]

This is what our current options are kicking at..

Wakeham 84.2%
Holland 78.4
Meaney 76.7%

How many kicks though?

"Fabricating statistics" fuck you're a massive twat. I went off senior level goal kicking (NRL/Internationals) as that was the most relevant and fairest way imo, not hand picking from a single season and different comps to push a certain narrative.

Anway the stats mean very little with such a small sample size, I just simply posted senior level kicking percentage for anyone interested.

 

[KLil]

Truthfully all our goalkickers are hit and miss... They are probably on the same level as each other so you would have to go with the most consistent unless you go for the one whose feeling it best on the day.

 

[TwinTurbo]

I assume this thread started from this;
https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/02/02/ranking-every-clubs-goal-kicking-stocks/

Which ranks us Top 8 in the goal kicking, but even with that the ratings are not truly statistically based, there's cherry picking going on. Any goal kicking ranking that doesn't have Croker in the Top 3 is either BS or biased.

Go Dogs

Thanks for those kicking stats,
I didn’t know Wakeham was that good ,very impressive for a young player
He might prove to be a real asset especially if his general play gets better
Hope dean gives him a decent shot at some point this year
