I wouldn't be spending good coin on someone to block his path.Need to see more of him in first grade.
I think the early part of this 2nd stint, stunk. This last few games Very good. Think the slate probably about even at moment. Just needs to quit the Dumb stuff, and keep consistent from hereon so $$$ balance swings in Sharkies favourNot sure Ramien is worth 500k.
This wouldn’t be until 2024. He’s got this year to show what he can do and also next year. If we think he may not be our long term fullback I would look at going to market maybe for edwards. Kennedy isn’t our future fullback imo.I wouldn't be spending good coin on someone to block his path.
Talakai for me is a 500k player. Anything over that just isn’t right IMO. Nikora should not of been offered 550k, that is overs i believe.I think the club needs to be really smart in:
- the amount they offer Talakai
- the amount they offer Kennedy. I think Dykes could take his spot. The club doesn’t want to be in another Moylan / Trindall position
Doubt Edwards would be around by then mateThis wouldn’t be until 2024. He’s got this year to show what he can do and also next year. If we think he may not be our long term fullback I would look at going to market maybe for edwards. Kennedy isn’t our future fullback imo.
Only reason I say this is I just haven’t seen enough of dykes yet. Very excited though to see him play the next 4 years in the 1 jersey.

I think part of the reason some people don't rate him is because he isn't always following the ball carrier hoping for an offload.I agree, no salary cap squeeze. Fake news. Fifita and Grahams salaries will cover their upgrades
For me Will is our long term fullback, I don't understand how people don't rate him
Maybe a bit of a push to be labelled “easily our best” but he is one of our top performers over the last few seasons so I’m just wondering why people are targeting him as “not required”?Will Kennedy is easily our best player.
I think hes solid without being spectacular.Maybe a bit of a push to be labelled “easily our best” but he is one of our top performers over the last few seasons so I’m just wondering why people are targeting him as “not required”?
I appreciate that everyone can have an opinion but I’m just curious as to their reasons (they may be valid, so pls share).
That pass he threw early in the fast half to I think to Ramien was crazy.. he definitely doesDykes has desert eagles in his fingers, he's the long-term 5/8 after Moylan for mine.
disagree - Kennedy benefits the most off the halves and linking off them to ball play, he’s elite at that. He isn’t an all round fullback to be irreplaceableWill Kennedy is easily our best player.
That's a pretty fair assessment.disagree - Kennedy benefits the most off the halves and linking off them to ball play, he’s elite at that. He isn’t an all round fullback to be irreplaceable
his passing game and catching game is top level - his defence, support play and running game needs work, he looks good in our set-up but if a game is on the line we never see it being Will Kennedy getting us the W… He needs to be that type of player regardless of the set-up around him where he can just make it happen on his own before he’s called our best player.
Kennedy has holes in his game we need plugged.. I’m sure they are working on them
Skilled yes, but best player?Will Kennedy is easily our best player.
Sure he has room to improve but who in our team has grown as much as this bloke in the last 2 years. Everytime he has the ball in his hand you get excited and defensively I don't think he is as bad as everyone makes out. Look when he was out earlier in the year our attack suffered.disagree - Kennedy benefits the most off the halves and linking off them to ball play, he’s elite at that.

It is because he isn't bad defensively. He is good at picking up balls of the ground. Safe under the high ball. Organised defence well and is usually in the right position. He may not make miracle tackles regularly, but he shouldn't need too either.Sure he has room to improve but who in our team has grown as much as this bloke in the last 2 years.

As a last line of defence I meanSure he has room to improve but who in our team has grown as much as this bloke in the last 2 years.
