I think you'll find that the ball and the posts are the same as in Super League so no less skill involved.

Blow out scores don't make a difference. It would be the same record whether he kicked one a game or ten a game, as long as he didn't miss.

| The record is for most consecutive successful kicks at goal and he now holds it, whether anyone likes it or not. It's a simple and incontestable question of fact.
If there is somewhere another parallel record, where there has to be a certain ratio of kicks not under the posts, or has additional brownie points for perceived pressure kicks, or some other random criterion, then these people should argue about it in a thread about that record, although I've never heard of it.
If kicks under the posts don't count, then why aren't they excluded from the previous string of holders of the record? Do the objectors even know how many kicks were from under the posts in previous records? Or how many were scored in "blowout" matches? (Of course they bloody don't!)
So what is it, then? Perhaps "Well, OK [isome[/i kicks under the posts count, but not really, and not if there are 'too many' of them"? Is there a formula for this? What a load of utter bollox!
The objectors and nit-pickers need to get a life, Finn is the world record holder and that's end of.

| Told an australian colleague. He joked that it's because over in England, the kickers never get the sun in their eyes.

TBF mate you just got that wrong, he was making a sarky but fair point.
I remeber Liam playing for Wakey in SL and I thought he did enough to get another season. Very skillfull and clever player, I reckon his lack of speed and oddly rotund shape blinded the narrow minded Coaches in SL to his obvious ability. That and the fact that he hadn't once run out for the Roosters third team against Wagga Wagga Wondersharks. Sarcasm

That's London Broncos fault. If they were performing better the game of Rugby League would hit the radar of the national press. Come on London!!

No need. The Broncos will turn it around. National glory is just around the corner.

He may well have been trying to be sarcastic but I'd say he just came across as disrespectful to the record.
Just writing in plain text with a comment that is not so outlandish that t is obviously sarcasm is just poor communication. Easy to criticise after the fact and say everyone should have known.
But whatever....

Personally speaking i'd say he was having a little dig at fans of the sport who only think the sport has existed now for 17 yrs,most of those fans being SLE fans raised on cheap tickets and with zero respect for the sport as a whole

| With absolutely no disrespect to Liam Finns phenomenal achievement, I think greater respect & recognition should be given to littlerich for the amount of whoppers he's reeled in on this thread.
Marvellous achievement Sir Rich of Haliport/Stockfax. I doff my flatcap to you
Keep up the good fight !

| Obviously I was being sarcastic and yes, rather childish. Disrespectful to Finn? No.
Down here in the Chamopionships we fear Finn and we fear his team.
This is a message board not a UN summit. Some people need to chillax.
