“He’s given it everything he’s got, ladies & gentlemen. It’s a MONSTER!”
Former Richmond Central big man, Dane Roy, has experienced a whirlwind five years since launching a 73m barrel on AFL Grand Final Day in 2015.
Roy, who played 34 senior games for the Snakes from 2014-15, changed his life when he won the longest kick competition and subsequently a $250,000 American Football scholarship to the University of Houston.
Roy recently shared his incredible story on the Taking A Punt Podcast from the day itself, to working with renowned punting coach Nathan Chapman and ultimately ending up at the Houston Cougars.

Round 12 of William Buck Premier Men’s provided a thrilling afternoon headlined by a couple of one-kick nailbiters and a couple of huge statement wins. Let’s take a closer look:
St Mary’s Salesian 23.18 (156) def Brunswick 8.2 (50) In what Saints coach Heath Chipperfield called their “most complete performance of the season,” St Mary’s Salesian defeated Brunswick by a dominant 106-point margin.
