Re: AFL Rd 11 2023 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Sydney Reply #165 – May 28, 2023, 07:13:54 pm McKay is a Coleman Medallist. He knows how to kick, and he knows how to find the big sticks. He, like all players, has room for improvement. I'm quite convinced that the faffing about with technique and the yips in front of goal are a head space issue, and he, like a lot of our players, seems to be in a rut of some sort.

I think it is about mind set and Club culture. So no contradiction. Quote Selected

I say fark off one of the other spuds and get him or a better one back at the club. Didn't StK just dump the ex Hawks kicking guru (forgot his name)?Kicking coaches will not break the bank, and if you are serious about your football, you can ask for help off your own bat.H has already knocked back FREE help from Fev.I'd suggest that he spends his money on a Sports Psych instead.

Re: AFL Rd 11 2023 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Sydney Reply #168 – May 28, 2023, 08:12:57 pm Fev struggled early in his career and he reckons BT (Who he barely knew at the time) called him up and offered to help him. They had a couple of sessions on the outside ovals at Princes Park. I think Harry was going okay with his around the corner shots but then when he misses a few the media go bananas and now he is just confused. Quote Selected 1 Likes
Re: AFL Rd 11 2023 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Sydney Reply #169 – May 28, 2023, 08:28:07 pm There is no doubt H is confused and his whole game is being affected, and going by the very clear explanation of his kicking style problems shown by MLloyd, his game will suffer until he gets help from the likes of Lloyd, Fev or Buddy Franklin.

Re: AFL Rd 11 2023 Post Game Postulations Carlton vs Sydney Reply #173 – May 29, 2023, 06:50:54 am Fev just said on the radio that BT and Ross Lyon helped him. He also said that he used to have about 100 shots at training until the sports scientist came in about 2007 and said he can only have 10 shots.So Fev obviously ignored this advice and bought a whole heap of footballs and did 100 shots at his local ground on the way home from every training session.
