Go to around 3:50 for some interesting kicking and handballing

Nice. If only they could come back and see how the game and The G look now. I'm glad those big round water soaked footballs don't exist anymore. The balls that I played with as a kid were bad enough so I can only imagine what they were like at the turn of the century.

It looks like you could kick for goal off the ground like in Rugby.. I wonder if you can still do that ?

Is called a "Place Kick", CC.

Has anyone executed one in the last 20 years ?
