Westy Conversions : Sun Jul 12, 2009 9:11 pm  

Looks like we may have a new first choice kicker on our hands. Some belting conversions over the past few weeks.

I reckon the kicks are going to win us a close game or two before the season ends, and Dicko in there too--we're almost spoilt for choice

I don't know why he hasn't been kicking from the beginning of the season really. He's got a right boot on him.

I don't think Westy wants the responsibility, either that or TM wants him to concentrate on his game rather than kicking

We are definitely spoilt for choice on kickers, we must have the most options in the league

Plus he did break his kicking foot n all

I spoke to Westy in France after the Catlans game and he said he did like to kick and it was just the fact that TM had chosen someone else to kick, not that he didn't want the responsibility.

I think it may be because Dixon is more likely to be on for the full 80 minutes.

I was stood pretty near Dixon as Westy kicked a touchline conversion and he had a little wry smile on his face and a chuckle with the fans near him.

Probably thinking: "That's my points scoring bonus going up the spout here"!

I thought it was a good move taking Joe off yesterday after he appeared to clash heads with a Hull player to ensure he was ok. He didn't look too happy about it, but common sense prevailed.
