AFL: David King joins the AFL 360 panel to discuss Hawthorn's unique ability of drawing free kicks and why they should use this skill heading towards the finals.
Amid their sudden rise to the cream of the crop, an eye-catching statistic has been raised surrounding Hawthorn’s free kick numbers inside forward 50.
Watch every game of every round this Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE with no ad-breaks during play on Kayo. New to Kayo?, King threw his support behind the Hawk’s small fleet, as Nick Watson , Jack Ginnivan and Dylan Moore sit first, equal-second and equal-forth on the ‘leaderboard’. “If you’ve got an asset that can create shots at goal for you, you want to use it – why not embrace the fact that Watson has done it more than any player – they’ve got four in the top 10,” added King.
“To me, everyone argues the mechanics of it … if you can challenge the opposition player to get their tackling right, that actually makes you challenge the worth of going in unorganised for a tackle with this panic method,” King continued. In fact, Hawthorn’s total of 20 shots on goal this season from high contact inside 50 is double that of the next closest clubs Carlton and Gold Coast .
