Didn't say he couldn't play backrow just I think he suits center or possibly 6 better. His explosiveness is what makes him a threat, you put another 10 + kilos on him and you possibly lose it. As for rikki he is tall , rangy and a strong runner much more suited to backrow imo
It’s aging like a fine wine that one
I have the Bulldogs game on loop.
the first try was terrible. Kennedy did some good things later but ffs start of the gsme woeful
There was absolutely nothing wrong with Kennedy in his first stint. You probably haven't watched it again paying attention to Kennedy in his first stint. The only possible blemish you could find would be the soft first try but that was a poor response from Joffa rather than Kennedy. Watch again and see if I'm correct.
Sorry but I disagree, it was soft by both of them.
Yet we played so much better, we weren't beaten through the middle aside from the first 7 minutes and had Joffa and Te'o done a little better it would have been a win. Besides, wouldn't it be the same at any other club? Given our injuries and Hass suspension? Every other club would need to start their lesser lights in similar circumstances.
I actually thought it was the opposite. Both Kennedy and Joffa ran on to the ball. It's amazing how you can see the same game yet think it was somehow worse when most seemed pleased we had forwards hitting the pass at speed.
It's those terrible benchy/reserve grade forwards thinking they have a chance to impress. Of course, 3 minutes in to the match we have the experts calling them hopeless, shit, not worthy of the jumper etc. The temerity of Kennedy and Joffa to be ripping and tearing. Ridiculous, who do they think they are, showing up the flat footer brigade.
