Quote: Marcus's Bicycle "It would be interesting to compare Sneyd's percentage for us last season against the season before with Cas. Does anybody know where to find these stats? Towards the end of last season he seemed to alter his style but it didn't seem to have much effect.'"


I put some stats on here a few weeks back. Sneyd was on about 69% in 2015. Down from 2014 at Cas. Also lower than both Rankin and Crooks for Hull in 2014.

We need him to be somewhere around 80%. Last season his goalkicking was just not good enough.

We've certainly had some players "steal" a living from us in the past, but I think incarceration is probably taking it a little too far!

Like all kickers its a confidence thing and think his confidensce went towards the end of the season for some reason.Personally think we will see the best of Sneyd next season,he will have had a full season alongside Pryce and a off season,which will benefit them both,as for kicking yes he was below his normal standards but maybe the change of ground affected him as KC is a damn sight bigger than Cas and he seemed to kick better away from home.

Sneyd and Pryce had a full pre-season together before last season. Neither of them were last minute signings.
If Sneyd is injured or banned I think we only have Abdul as a goal kicker.

Sneyd curves the ball in flight too much to ever be consistently effective from the left side. Last season we had Rankin and Westerman who could have been called upon for kicks from that side but weren't used. Now they are gone. We were spoiled for many years in having a genuine top class kicker in Tickle - no one has been as good since he left. Having said that although the goal kicking could be better its not a disaster area either,

Yep you're right. Some stato:

2015 for us: 69 goals from 101 attempts: 68.3%

2014 for Cas: 99 goals from 129 attempts: 76.7%

2013 for Salford: 55 from 77 attempts: 71.4%

Danny Tickle as a comparison was at 83.3% in 2013 and 85.4% in 2012.


If you applied Tickle's benchmark of 84% to the 101 attempts, vs the 68.3%, it's a difference of about 33 extra points for the season we missed in 2015. Needs a big improvement.

whoever is kicking needs to be practising like Sinfield did, also needs the back up kicker to be doing the same, they need to be sick of the sight of a kicking tee by the start of the season.
It's small details like this that can and will make a difference in the results as well as giving a boost on the individual if not the team in live play.
Watching the ball sail wide of the sticks for a 6th time out of 6 (Catalans at home) must be soul destroying when even 3 of those kicks would have resulted in a victory in that particular game.

Aside from the odd tidy short kick by Sneyd and a few lengthy ones by Adbul toward the back end we were shocking, I think we were the only team not to kick a 40/20 all season.
This has to improve, Sneyd is a specialist place kicker and he should be aiming to be closer to 80% than 70, he has the ability to kick them from wide out so he needs to figure out what to do to improve things.

His goal kicking percentage is a concern, but it's his field kicking - particularly medium and long range - that needs more improvement. It sometimes seems that the longer he has to decide what kick to put in the worse the outcome is. Big season for him all round IMO - should kick on behind the pack we have next year and no excuses if he doesn't.

It's a lot easier if you're not kicking from your own half and, let's face it, we did a lot of that last season. I think his kicking in the field of play was good all things considered. I thought Pryce didn't kick too well which made Sneyd an obvious target for defences.

If Sneyd gets a knock than HTW can step up to run the team and kick the goals.

Amended for you - although you could have edited the post.

Craig Hall released by Wakey and Lee Smith playing all the friendlies. Kicking problem solved?

The shocking thing he was quoted as saying in league express was hes never had a kicking coach?,even rovers brought in Gary Pearce surely worth a few weeks consultancy ?
