No spot for Keary next week

[Serenader]

If our forwards can dominate and lay the platform, Keary and Walker combo will cut this competition to ribbons
Walker is about to show Roosters fans hes apprenticeship is done and he is a top notch tradesman now .
He looks bigger ,stronger and his kicking looks like its gained 10 or 20 mtrs.
Exciting times

His long kicking game including bombs look to have gained some oompft compared to last year. Something we were definitely missing. He’s a long way off Moses/DCE after watching that game yesterday thou!

What an awful thread following a great win we should be still celebrating.

For the record guys like Ted, Kez and JWH are first picked when available. All champions in their own right. We have a nice blend of youth and experience this year.

But don't over read a big win against an ordinary out of form team. Significant class drop on our first two weeks and what we'll face next week.

On Kez his only poor game in living memory was last week, when the whole team was bad. Was brilliant Round 1 and certainly one of our best in our 7/9 late charge last year to unluckily miss the grand final qualifiers. People have some very short term recall and skewed reasoning.

You won't win a comp with two rookie halves. And I hope Kez is back for the Panthers clash next werk. I expect him and Sam to both play. It will be a different story next week taking on Cleary and co.

Maybe Sam can take the organiser/lead role more and Kez play his natural running game. Would be happy if that's how our coaching staff are building this year.

Sandon has a good future and the fact we lost two promising halves like Lam and Volkman shows the regard the club has for him. He will definitely get his chance. Much prefer Watson in that hooker sub role than in the halves. That's more the selection call...whether to use him or Sandon in the 14 role. A pleasant headache.

We should call u Whispering Jack...the voice of reason (cross between "Your the voice" & "Age of reason" songs).

The kiddies on here always need a new shinny toy and are happy to throw the old one out of the cot.

The little master Keary will happily prove them wrong yet again. Sure he was poor against Manly but he was one of our best in 2023.
