Yeah, was going to mention that but thought it might skew the stats slightly

I didn't check cup, only SL.

Whoever gets the gig i think it's a really important part of the game these days. With games seemingly being a closer run thing on a more regular basis then kicking could make a big difference. Having recently read John Kear's book he said that he got a union kicker in to help Brough and Cooke with their place kicking. Those two weren't bad at all so i hope the coaching staff would look to go down that route as it's an area that union seems to surpass us in.

Gary Pearce wasn't it?

I watched the 2005 Final yesterday and couldnt believe how good our place kicking was. Each one went into open space from Cooke, Brough and even Horne!

It's been Jordan Abdull when I've seen them, although Wilkinson did in the 19's derby.

Reece Dean for the 16's I think.

Aaron Heremaia has also kicked this season - four fom six in the Cup win over North Wales Crusaders.

Six players have kicked goals this season, may be a club record.

Didn't we have 4 or 5 in one game earlier in the year? Cas at home I think?

Yes mate,

Tickle (5/6), Holdsworth (1/1), Westerman (1/1), Arundel (1/1)

Joe westerman and joe arundel are both accomplished goal kickers.

Westerman seemed to get the nod over Holdsworth tonight after Tickle went off.
