It was an inexcusable miss. No doubt about it.

I think most would agree his goal kicking is his weakness.

Looking at a pure career average he isn't too far off the top liners in today's game.

Bontempelli over his career averages 0.9 goals per game V 2024 1.4 goals per game.
Dangerfield averages 1.0
Petracca the same 1.0
Cripps averages 0.5
Pendlebury averages 0.5

Gary Ablett jnr is way ahead with 1.2 goals per game. But maybe skewed as he did spend his early career forward.

Not sure how you objectively measure gettable goals compared to the other greats but overall, his goal kicking has improved this year.
