WTF?

You were who? I've lost track already.

Wizards mate

 

[Wiz]

He doesn't have the size of teddy or Turbo. If he would support better through the middle he would have a lot of similarities to Ben Barba

Don’t even go there..

Come on, Barba was one of a kind - I can’t remember a weakness, he had everything and he saved a lot of tries and his running game was literally unmatched

Wizards mate

lol cheeky bugger, he's got no mates

 

[Wiz]

The styles aren't mutually exclusive. No reason Kennedy can't be following a forward on a hit up inside our half, and sticking to the edges in the opposition half.

Exactly

Playing well in odd-numbered years?

Drugs and domestic violence come to mind

Made me go and watch Barba highlights

I can think of a few habits that hasn't helped.

Ben Creagh still having nightmares

The year we won Barba featured in nearly most of our Tries. He was unbelievable in terms of tries and assists.

Could really find a line

 

[GF78]

I don’t think they offer Kennedy a new deal.

Kaboom!

 

[GF78]

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.

Yep, at agree 550k seems overs. Who would you rather? Victor the Inflictor for 525k or Britton the Oven Mitten for 550k?

Briton will spend more time on the field

Different roles and I'm not gonna argue something I don't know (their prices) but unfortunately I think Radley is too tough for today's game.

 

[andrew's_sharks]

What about when he took down kikau when he broke the line.

Yeah he did a great job of that tackle. He will get better at them too. Kennedy is a fairly good fullback and will get a starting spot at either the sharks or another club for the next 5 years.

Not Briton the kitten?

 

[Sutty]

I would take Patty Carrigan for "500k" sir

 

[snowman]

Victor Radley is so over rated its not funny

At that price, neither of them

 

[Proud Shark]

I would be absolutely shocked if any player could play more than a handful NRL games at fullback if they were not adept at talking and organising the defence. It’s their primary job.

Absolutely. You don't end up with one of the best defences in the comp with a fullback that can't call numbers.
