Re: Who is our best kick?
Other than Lenny, whose kicking dropped off a bit last year, Jack Newnes by a mile. He is the only player under 30 who can kick both feet (naturally) for a start. The only thing that has held him back is confidence, but he has the technique. All the others only use the wrong foot to get out of jail. Alas, for many, their preferred ends up in the same place - with the opposition.

Jack still hacks a few of his kicks. Improving though.
