Quote ="Grimmy"Aye we've lacked a good play kicker since Smith got injured, if Leuluai, O'Loughlin and Tomkins were better kickers I'd be inclined to say we don't need a new halfback next season, but poor kicking can really bite you against the better teams in the big games.'"
Sam Tomkins general kick play is very good. After watching the game again on sky plus I don't recall a poor kick from him.
I thought we signed Riddell to help out with our kicking game? He has put the odd few kicks in to great affect. Not sure why he didn't last night. Michael McIlorum has also got a decent kicking game from the acting half.
One of Thomas Leuluai's great strengths was his kicking game close to the line. Not sure where that has gone. Maybe the switch from halfback to hooker during the match is affecting his game? Either way it is an area he needs to improve on and I hope with Michael McIlorum's return we will see a less disrupted side and a better kicking game.
Bit concerned about Gleeson (Not done it for me yet), and Feka (teams seem to be ready for him, and cut him down before he gets up a head of steam).
