He might try and prison break his Mum......
That's more thug life than anything he's ever done on the footy field.

If they haven’t already, players are really going to get the shits if every time they do or say something privately that upsets Kevvie it makes it’s way into the media via one of his unofficial spokesman.
Except the quotes are kevs.that whole article was written by Ben Ikin's mates
That doesn’t really reflect well on kevvie then. Taking ikin’s bait like that.that whole article was written by Ben Ikin's mates
Except the quotes are kevs.
He left no doubt that he wants things done his way.
Declaring it publicly means Ikin has to eat shit if nothing changes or he does if there are changes ikins way.
It's hardly a way to discuss/negotiate by saying shit to the media.
That doesn’t really reflect well on kevvie then. Taking ikin’s bait like that.
If only there was an organ that controls what the mouth says… poor Kevvie let his emotions get the better of him, again!Kevvie could have said "no comment" which the media would of spun and BHQ would have whinged about Kevvie not rebutting the article.
or he could have lied and BHQ/ the media would have whinged about him lying to them
Of course there are obvious issues. Kevvie’s brother just got the sack.if you're trying to make KW look bad then you of course don't talk (or quote) Ikin.
makes it look worse for Kevvie and blows any issues (assuming there are any) out of proportion. \
Drama = clicks = $$$
So it's a media driven conspiracy to get Kev . Right then.if you're trying to make KW look bad then you of course don't talk (or quote) Ikin.
makes it look worse for Kevvie and blows any issues (assuming there are any) out of proportion. \

I’m not making my mind up until I’ve heard Tallis’s take on all this.
uh oh ! now there's a rift between ikin and DD lolFTR, the article i toom the above quotes from also says that Ben Ikin wasn't involved in the process to extend Kevvies contract in March this year ... seems DD also bypassed Ikin
MunsterCan we get a signing already to move on from this please club?
Well, just in case it couldn’t be any more obvious there’s a serious issue between Ikin and Kev. Tallis has just given Ben an absolute spray in that quote. Fmd, how is that productive?Here you go:
“The CEOs don’t get sacked – the coach does (if an NRL club fails to get results),” Tallis fired on Triple M’s Sunday Sin Bin show.
“All these guys ... what are they called, football managers or directors of football, it’s a made-up title.
“It’s absolutely made up.
“Basically, the football manager should be a lackey for the head coach unless you are Phil Gould (Bulldogs football boss).
“These guys (other NRL football chiefs) all think they are Phil Gould.
“Let me tell you, Phil Gould’s role (at Canterbury) was made for Phil Gould, there aren’t too many people like him who can go to an organisation and be the boss.”
“Ben Ikin went for the CEO’s role and he missed it, that job is the boss,” Tallis said.
“The role for Benny, if I’m Benny Ikin, is, ‘Kevvie what do you need me to do? Hey mate, do you need anything else?’
“That should be it, that should be his job description.
“There are joint decisions these days (at NRL clubs) because if the coach has too much power, you can see how clubs get the salary cap out.
“Does Kevvie run the team? Does Kevvie talk about the players they want at the recruitment desk? Absolutely.
“But the two coaches I had, Brian Smith and Wayne Bennett, no-one is on their page. They make the decisions. They live by it.
“At the end of the day, it’s the coach gets moved on (if he fails to get results).”
bullshit, dipshits like you just expect miracles and when dribble in the media appears you's carry on like a bunch of bitches and want to tear it all up.
Man U are the biggest football club in the world and look at their form.What we're expecting aren't miracles. They're realistic expectations for the biggest Rugby League club in the world.
