Almost ..is NOT the same
It's not the same degree of difficulty .
But but but but but almost but but but almost .
its not the same, in practice it virtually is though. I would definitely say accurately kicking while running at full pace is more difficult than kicking a drop kick off a few easy steps

So almost is replaced with VIRTUALLY
You really are clueless "
Lol kicking at full pace with no bar to get over .

given kicking in our game is far more common, and executed with far greater skill and precision, I'd say it's you who are clueless. Especially given you think it's impossible to kick a drop kick while running

Skill & precision .
Lol let me find that article where they were complaining about how bad the kicking is
If they were so skilled at kicking they wouldn't need one point unco sticks
Lol I often hear how they can hit a man on the chest from 60 Mtrs away ..on the run ..with either foot .
Lol ..no they kick to a general area where someone usually runs to try to catch it or fumble it .
Yet I've seen these blokes who can kick so accurately miss getting it between two giant sticks from 30 Mtrs out ....with no bar to get over .
Lol ..good for a giggle

When someone kicks the ball to space the kick has to be accurate or the player receiving it wont catch it on the full, or the defender will also get to the ball and spoil it. That has to be deadly accurate to be succesful. Doing that while stationary isnt that hard. Doing it under pressure while running is very difficult.
Here's a classic example. If the kick was a few meters either side, or too short or long there's no way the forward would have received it. Thats precision kicking
Yeah there are complaints on occasion about poor goal kicking conversion, but these are complaints that goal kicking accuracy hasnt kept pace with the increase in kicking accuracy around the ground. Like many other sports, this is a mental issue. A backman can hit a target on the chest from 60m surrounded by opposition but fails to kick a goal from 30m. It certainly isnt technique, it's all mental

There is a component of the receiving player being able to adjust pace as they lead into space though.
Just watched Adam Reid snap a 51 metre goal across his body on an angle

Did you see it.... would have cleared any bar. Materas goal from the boundary line in the suns game (that I had to watch on my phone as no Foxtel where I am) was also a cracker.

Wow he caught the ball off a kick lol.. NRL players catch high bombs and straight kicks like that all the time.
Pretty funny making a big deal out of catching a ball off a kick.

the big deal was the accuracy and skill of the kick, not the catch
I showed you multiple kicks better than anything anything you've come up with mate.
the kicks you showed happen multiple time every AFL game. You are still to show an NRL goal or even a kick while the player is running though
At the end of the day most AFL goals would not be even counted in a Rugby code field goals match.
They are either below the crossbar or in the side goals or they kicked with no pressure after taking a mark.
Basically scoring in AFL is a piece of piss. That is why you have such high scorelines. Facts are facts guys.
Do you even watch the game? Only half of AFL goals are from set shots, the others are under direct pressure, and would easily be above any cross bar. I can remember a heap of goals from last nights game that would count.
Here's an example of one player's highlight real. Not how many goals are from general play, not set shots, and how many would clear any cross bar
