    someone said (may have been himself) JWH if he doesnt get selected for NZ again would consider switching to NSW..imagine that

      would definately choose jennings.
      lyon is a right side centre, for which we already have shaun kenny-dowall.
      its a no brainer

        If they were the same age it's a much harder question but as Jennings is younger the choice is simple.

        Much larger upside with Mick.

          Jennings, but only coz of his age. Lyon is one of the best centres I have seen. Can do freaky things.

            Lyons is old slow and ready for a pay day in England.

              I've got this horrible feeling that Moga will be at the Bronco's once his chooks contract is up though.
              What makes you think that the kid has been in our system since he was 15 years old and extended his contract last year so why would he have any allegiance to the Gronkos.
              He's a young kid from Queensland who was a massive Bronco's fan as a kid, all his family is up there and if he turns out to be as good as everybody is thinking/hoping I can see Brisbane throwing decent coin at him to lure him home.

              Like I said though, it's just a feeling.

                The aura the brncs had is gone it died with Locky, lets hope the pride of the jersey keeps him here

                    I don't understand why it is that people under-rate SKD in such a way. I think he is better than most centres in the comp. SKD, JWH, RTS and Cordner are my favorite players in the team.

                    Best SKD moment or game was when he scored 4 tries in a game against the broncos in 2010. He single handedly won us that match even though we were ripped off hard in that game by the refs. The broncos were awarded a try at the death which was one of the worst decisions I have ever seen.

                      Even though I've questioned Jennings defence I would still pick him over Lyons. Jamie is at that stage of his career where injury will start to plague him and while he has more versatility then Jennings, I think Jennings will do the job he was signed to do and that's to score tries.

                        I think people on this forum are being hard markers towards SKD, the team hasn't set the world on fire in the past few years, so how do you expect a centre to excel. I'd be pointing the finger at the halves for SKDs shortcomings in the past few years. I reckon you will see the SKD of 2010 this season, it's amazing what a little competition can do for an athlete.

                          It's because in 2010 he was playing for a contract and since getting it he has been incredibly poor.
                          Sure we know he isn't a defender but he has lost his enthusiasm for success on the park.
                          Lets hope he can find it again this year, as he has a lot of unfulfilled talent.

                            Agreed.

                            He was in stellar form last year.

                            He's probably Many's best player.

                            He's not going anywhere though.

                              Anyone who would prefer Lyons to Jennings has rocks in there head.

                              Yes while Lyon has been in great form the last couple of seasons, at 30 his best years are behind him.

                              Jennings is the future, Lyon is the past. I'd of thought people would of been over our club buying players that are past there best. If Lyon had of come here it would of been nothing more than a retirement fund for him.

                              Anyway its all a mute point now as Lyons is staying put.

                                no! why does everyone assume players only play well when theyre competing for a contract. its mindless dribble. he played well in 2010 because he had good halves on his inside. i cant rember 2011, but even this year, he was injured for half the year and still scored the second most number of tries for our club
