It's still Tex and comfortably so.

He's a better opposite foot kick than most are on their main.

He's got it all, depth, vision, both feet and touch.
Maybe for field kicking but shots at goal is average.

Even as an average kick for goal (which includes numerous shots the vast majority of players couldn't even attempt due to range), I think the difference in field kicking is so vast, he's still the best.

I'm honestly staggered this isn't consensus, he's an outrageously good field kick.

He’s got a million of them, but this kick from Josh Rachele’s Very Terrible Night struck me at the time.

50m, off a step, perfectly weighted to draw a player into the 5m of space between defenders.

Deserved to be marked.
 
Hayden Young a bit stiff not to get a mention by the OP. He is better on his non-preferred right foot than most right footers. His kicking off his left is a thing of sheer beauty.

Tom Brown is already our best kick comfortably. I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes the best, or one of the best kicks in the comp once he gets a few more games under his belt.
100%

Tom Brown’s kicking is already one of the best in the league IMO. I feel comfortable every time he has the ball.

It might take some time for non-Richmond fans to realise, but they eventually will have no choice if he keeps this up.

Better than Naicos who’s now dropped to 231st in the league for ball use last time I checked. Complete butcher.
 
John Noble
 
Hayden Young freo.
 
Jordan Clark
 
Steele Sidebottom still pretty good on both sides of his body.
