Keary has come crashing back to earth, all the so called experts thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread, I wonder if he'll end the year in NSW Cup?

Got a few tries assists last night. Wasn't to bad, there were at least a dozen roosters players who were worse last night

The Broncos put all the pressure on Mitchell Pearce and keary didn't or couldn't stand up. Pearce has been the best halfback in the comp in these opening rounds. Keary is only a running 5/8th he doesn't possess the skills to be a halfback. He can't kick anywhere near like Pearce can and he definitely can't tackle a 100kg forward. Cody Walker and Blake Austin all would of had the same difficulties last night because they're not natural halfbacks who control the game. Halfbacks are literally the most important players on the field and the Broncos forwards shut down Pearce every chance they got which would of destroyed his confidence. I definitely do not wanna look at guerra after last night. The guy has displayed why he shouldn't be picked for origin again.

Keary still had 2 try assists. He was solid.

Not the best defensively though missing 7 tackles.

We all know what Keary has to offer. We watched him for a couple of years when he was playing for us.

He's very energetic with a good running game, ok passing game, has the odd good kick in him, can't tackle to save himself.

The problem we all had is that evidently the media hadn't really watched much of him after we won the comp in 2014. Or they had watched but just wrote off the way he played for us because of the feud he had with Rusty,

They built him up to be something he isn't. Then the Roosters had a couple of games where they played some slack opposition that didn't really target or weren't good enough to target Luke's deficiencies (that included us).

Dylan Walker well and truly picked the scab off Keary's defensive wound last week. The broncos stuck a finger in it last night and opened it right up.

He'll probably dominate the Knights next week but lets see how he goes up against the good sides that will target him like Melbourne or Cronulla later down the track?

Keary's a good player

The fact is Adam Reynolds was absolutely woeful vs the Cowboys and the Roosters which is why Souths could not score any points

You are talking rubbish again, Reynolds has nothing to do with it, Souths kept Cody Walker and let Keary go and Walker is playing better at half the price.

Keary was a cancer in our dressing room. It doesn't matter how good he goes anywhere else, the main point is, it's great he's not in our shed.

BTW Cody is kicking his arse in the "stats"

Hope your winger doesn't have nightmares about catching a football - I was waiting fr the Benny Hill Show theme music to be played every time Cleary put up the bomb to his wing,

Early days yet no need to panic

Burnsie was targeted, I don't know what stinking club you go for but many have lost a game under those bombs, we won like champs!!
