Former Western Bulldogs and Richmond forward Nathan Brown has named the tip five kicks in the competition right now.

Speaking on Triple M's Rush Hour, Brown discussed how kicking in the game has gotten worse in recent years.

"Kicking in our game I don't think has improved for many, many years now," he said.

"I have put together what I think are the five best kicks in the competition right now."

Other players to feature on Brown's shortlist were Toby Greene, Shannon Hurn, Scott Pendlebury and Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti.

Here is Brown's top five kicks in the competition right now:

1. Daniel Rich

"The number one is Daniel Rich. He has had the third most effective kicks this year. He has kicked the ball long more than any other player this year, and when you kick the ball long it's much harder to be effective.

"He is a devastating kick."
