[Coldkiwi]

Credit to the occers, they defended out of their skins and we couldn't come up with new ideas.

Now will some nice administrator please delete this damn thread I started.

johnny is good,

too damn good, but man it makes for a boring game!(see last nights france v england)

drop goals should be worth 1, game clinchers, and thats it, in my professional opinion.

I don't care how good a kicker he is, if you can't do it with style, you're crap. He looks like a spastic duck when he lines up a shot.

more like a spastic duck punching out a 'morning after a hard night drinking' turd I reckon

[Frenzal]

Style? Oh I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about rugby..

[Lou Girardin]

OK I know style is relative, but he hasn't got any.

Style is a small price to pay to be the best kicker in the world.

couldn't have said it better myself.

I think his lack of normality is increasing (he didn't look that daft in the lions tour). Geez, if he looks that retarded kicking a ball, imagine what a mess he must be trying to dance! The average white pom has no rythym anyway (a clue as to why the national dance includes skipping, bells and hankies?) so I'd hate to have to watch him try and look good on the dance floor. Oy, the pain!

CK, come on le bleu is all I have to say

I think Wilkinson is just reflecting the agony on the faces of opposing fans as another 3 points rolls up on the scoreboard.

having indulged in a bit of pom-bashing I should add that I would like England to win the final. I've had enough of the Aussies winning and it'd be nice to see things shaken up a little bit. English glory won't last long anyway (it never does) so soon enough, the world will know that rugby glory will always be based in the Southern Hemisphere.

But for now, lets see a change eh?

P.s. I supported the wallabies in the last final against the french so please don't flame me for not having an ANZAC spirit.

The reason Wilkinson looks the way his does before a kick is all about getting maximum distance and accuracy of the ball. That's why such an average sized guy can kick a 50m penalty and get it right down the middle.
Firstly he gets his centre of gravity closer to the ground by bending over, this gives him a greater sense of balance, he then clasps his hands to rotate his body to the correct position so that when he comes round the ball to kick it, he uses his momentum rather than the muscles in his torso.
As for the look on his face, I think Bluninja hit the mark

Frenzal, you forgot to mention the placing of the ball at an angle to counteract the normal rotation of the ball when struck
