I would love to see the stats on average exit distance by team. I suspect it would be a very telling stat.

More useful stat than 'rucker'

I think we kick short to stop the opposition winding up with momentum. Same reason teams don't do long line dropouts. Easier to keep the defensive line in shape that way.

@Victor-Meldrew yea it has been happening for too long and 'consistently' with all our kickers for it not to be, surely...right?

Right?
