  • Опубликовано: 10 апр 2017
  • This is a compilation of some of the longest kicks that rugby has ever seen featuring Elliot Daly, Francois Steyn, Jonny Sexton and more. One of the longest kicks seen on the international stage by Paul Thorburn in 1985 is excluded from this video due to poor clip quality. There are longer kicks in then video than Paul's as his only measured 70 yards 8 and a half inches (64.2m) but considering he did not have a tee the kick is very remarkable. .Please like subscribe and hope you enjoy!

      leather balls are lighter than todays balls, look it up. Leather balls don't become heavier with water so much since they treat the leather. It just becomes more slippery.

    Freeze frame at 2:21 -- Frans Steyn's kick is from about 2-3m beyond halfway and 6m in from the sideline; halfway is 50m and rugby field is 70m wide, hence if we use Pythagoras' equation we get SQRT((50+3)^2+(70/2-6)^2) = 60.4 meters, not the 66m that the commentators are claiming.
    [EDIT] In case anybody's interested, here's the formula for calculating the distance of a rugby kick:
    SQRT((50+A)^2+(35-B)^2)
    where
    A = the number of meters beyond halfway (subtract A if it's A meters inside the opposition's half)
    B = the number of meters in from the sideline. As a guide, the two dotted lines are 5m and 15m in, and the center of the field directly in front of the goalposts is 35m in.
    So you just plug the numbers A and B in, and type the equation into your web browser, and Mr Google (or Ms Bing) will give you the answer.

  • @eamonstafford2056
    @eamonstafford2056 5 лет назад +9

    Paul Thorburn's kick was the best. It was done with a heavy leather ball and towards latter half of the game and as you say no tee. Most of the others are great too but one can push the synthetic lighter balls with tees a bit further and the kicks in the upper veldt certainly go further through the thin air too. All good kicks though

      It's way easier because they're kicking off a tee. That's why kickoffs in the NFL are so long and consistent: it's the only kick that allows the use of a tee.

    Some of these pitches differ in size. Years ago I watched Glasgow Warriors play Edinburgh and it was on our rugby playing field in Aberdeen which was 85m and I’ve seen games played at pro level on shorter narrower pitches. Watch Joel Stranskys 59m kick vs Aus in 1993 in a windy stadium as well. Andy Mehrtens kicked a 63-64 metre kick vs the Boks in 96 as well that flew over the posts

    I've often wondered why drop-goals aren't utilised more to the extent that the points would have to be reduced. Forwards celebrate a hard-won, kickable penalty but stand far enough back from a set-piece or in open play and a drop-goal is impossible to defend.

    Very good compilation. As you mention, there will be lots more worthy kicks that should be included that do NOT include a kicking tee. I guarantee you that the bulk of those will be from South African teams in the High Veldt during the 70s and 80s. Would also expect the dropped goal from Kiwi No. 8 Zinzan Brooke to make an appearance. All thhe kicks on the video were taken by regular team kickers in the backs, but Brookes drop goal was totally instinctive and every regular kicker would have been proud of that. Another great inclusion would have been Aussie prop Matt Dunnings sweetest drop goal for the Waratahs in 2003. That one was a bit of an anti-climax though as it cost his team a place in the semi finals. I know your video is for biggest and longest.... but these would have been the biggest/longest (AND SWEETEST) from a Number 8 and a prop

    American/Canadian football kickers kickoff with a tee with the ball leaning backwards. Why do rugby kicks with a tee on their penalty kicks lean the ball forward?

    some great kicks. This is why i never can understand how american football field goal kickers missed frequently enough from 30 and 40 yards out right in front of the posts. The phrase you "had one job" literally comes to mind!

      They miss because the ball is snapped back and a guy has to catch the ball and position it while the kicker runs up. In rugby the ball is set on a tee and isn't moving. And a dozen massive guys aren't charging you.

      agnostic47 have you heard of a drop goal it’s way tougher than a football field goal you’ve got to time it perfectly and the opposition is charging at you
