I see my motivational thread worked okay tonight. I'll go away to pen my thread about Francis Meli's lack of length of the field hat tricks .

Yup. Seven out of seven wasn't too bad, was it? And two touchline kicks as well. I reckon he's been slacking on the practice and that's why he's been dodgy around the touchline!

Well done Jamie Foster.

I do believe Foster has had some sort of groin/hernia type of injury and has not been as consistant as he would like to be.

I believe that to be true and he is having an operation at the end of the season. Makes his performances even more impressive.

For kickers it would be interesting to see a 'pressure' statistic, as when you watch the likes of Sinfield, Hodgson, Richards kick when the pressure is really on they tend to deliver whereas maybe the likes of Westwood & co not as much! Young Foster seem's to have that attribute as well, kicked superbly last week!

Richards hasn't. He had three chances to win that play off game and never took one.

True I was letting him off with the last one as as near impossible most wouldn't of even took on, but their was the pen pretty straight be' should of nailed. Have seen him nail a few crucial ones before but your point us certainly a valid one and maybe Saturday will tell more...
