Neil Turley v Mick Nanyn.



wonder if Turley or Nanyn was / is the best kicker.



I reckon it difficult to say.....

neil turley

Nanyn is around 100pts off becoming one of the games top 10 scorers ever.



As for kickers Mick Stacy for me was the best ever Leigh kicker.

Ferguson.



Woody was the laziest kicker, it didn't matter whether he was five yards away or 50 it would only clear the bar with inches.

Neil Turley

Woody was brilliant. Unique. Oh Jimmy Ledgard wasn't a bad kicker either.

we have been quite blessed with kickers

Risman, Ferguson, Stacy, Woods, Turley,Nanyn to name but a few, it's the try scorers that have let us down

Woody was great.

None of this elaborate preparation for the kick with Woody either. It was often a question of whether the touch judges would get behind the posrts, before he took the kick!

Couple people havn't mentioned-Chris Johnson and Dean Purtill

I recall a radio interview with Woody just before he retired in 1993 stating He never saw the point of 'taking an eternity to have a pot at goal'

Is it still within the rules of the game that you can opt for a drop goal as a conversion rather than a conventional kick from the floor ?
