I think Kennedy has to come in, but we can't make the mistake we did last year of forcing him back early. Make sure he's 100% fit.
Would maybe playing him off the bench be the way to go? For me Tracey has to be in the team somewhere with the form he’s in. Tough call to make, glad I’m not the coach.

At this rate Tracey takes Moylans spot if we aren't going to play 4 forwards.

Tracey for me could play that 13 for 10-15 minutes if needed along with obviously anywhere 1-7 . His defence is very strong in the line.

Pretty obvious, isn't it. As a benchie he offers so much more than Moylan.
Put Tracey at prop and he’d still not take a backwards step. I can’t remember seeing a player play with so much heart and energy. Not naturally gifted just all effort imo.

Connor Tracey is a great player, he certainly has to be in our 17 somewhere when Kennedy returns. Anyway, apart from Cowboys 1st try how good was our defence tonight, finally we defended quite well. We played pretty well tonight, We looked pretty dangerous tonight most times we had good chances.

Definately was a lot better tonight then we had in the past this season in general. It also helped that we didn't do so many errors tonight, didn't give away so many penalties compared to previous matches either.

Tracey and Trindall compliment each other really well. They both have a higher energy, scramble style in them.
Or attack would be different again with Kennedy back. More of the sweep plays you'd think. Would it be better? Tough to say.
One place Tracey seems to have Kennedy though is defence. The bloke dead set thinks he's Cam McInnes in a beach sprinters body.

And you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference in any of his runs from 1st minute to last.
Does not get tired
Kennedy in front on defence is simply embarrassing. Throws an arm out, no attempt of getting in front of the ball carrier.
Tracey goes ball and all with no respect for his body. You either got it or you don’t. Tracey has it. Heart

What a win!! I know it's another one against a team outside the 8, but the way we played, especially in the 2nd half, was simply outstanding.
Defense was excellent. Has been for the past fortnight and if we can produce the same kind of effort in the coming weeks, we're going to go deep in the finals. Watching our scramble in D, I had 2016 vibes at times.
The team looks focused, physically ready and well balanced. Tricky, Tracey, Hazelton and Graham are the standouts in our recent run of form. And Nicho is playing like he doesn't have to do it all by himself.
Long may it continue.

I'm a big fan of Kennedy, but there's no doubt that Tracey's contribution in defence has coincided with our recent run of form.
