Ability to kick well. A Wonderfool creation, with the edit summary "maybe", from a single sportswriter. Equinox ◑ 07:09, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- It seems to be chiefly restricted to rugby; I found this and this for example. I wonder if it refers to the player's ability to kick scoring shots (goals? tries? penalties? As a proud Victorian I know nothing about rugby) rather than just kicking in general.
- There is also a phrase have one's kicking boots on. This, that and the other (talk) 05:39, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
- So we have quotes for 'found|discovered|remembered his kicking boots' from the quote at the entry and the two cites you've just found. There's also this hit for 'left his kicking boots behind'[1]. It looks like this is going to pass. --Overlordnat1 (talk) 10:07, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
