Kearney on Gillett claiming he was trying to recruit him to Warriors: "He's an idiot, he's a 27-year-old living in a 15-year-old's mind."

WTF?

 

[Morkel]

Reading between the lines, the boys may have known that Kearney was at least considering the NZ job. Hence his joke that he might be going across the ditch. We all know Gillett isn't the sharpest tool, but I don't think the comment was meant as an insult, more along the lines of Matt not being able to shut his mouth for the sake of an in-joke.

 

[noisetheory]

its clearly just a bit of fun, fellas.

Good on Gillett for having a laugh. Beats the cliche "I leave all that stuff to my manager and I just focus on playing my best and the contract stuff will work itself out".

 

[BroncosAlways]

This is good news. But he still makes me feel odd when he gets up from a tackle like he was doing the Limbo

Laughed so hard at this, so true.

Yeah, He really turned up to that interview, credit to the boys.

Good news for Gillo!

Bad news for your tissue supplies.

With Gillo turning 30 next year, is it jut me or has his career zoomed by.

I still feel like he's a young guy who has yet to peak. He's one of my favourite players but its weird to think he's entering his twilight years already.

 

[broncsgoat]

Next year is his 9th season

 

[Alec]

His rookie year was pretty late, relatively speaking. He was like 23/24ish?

He was 22, in 2010. 21 for the first half of the season

Hopefully our halfback will make the most of it while gillett is still around

 

[broncsgoat]

Im expecting at least another 5 years out of him.

Best defender in the team, but his attack was pretty dodgy last year, lots of dropped balls, bad lines etc. Hope some consistency in the halves helps him regain his attacking mojo.

I think we could get at least another 5 years out of him.

He is fit as **** and doesn't even look like coming close to slowing down. If he can avoid any serious injuries, I think we could see him play on for that long.
