That's still an upgrade on Kennedy, if we get FPN we definitely got the better end of the deal.

i wonder if FPN was going back to Roosters and Kennedy was going to Broncos that Tommy Smith's tune would be any different....FPN is a hard prick and would do a team like Broncos that lacked that aggression some good

Yeah he was called a dud and their worst player when he left now he's a good signing when he returns a year later after being a powder puff at the Broncos.

never knew why Warriors signed him in the first place. Isn't a flamboyant type of player that Warriors seems to like out back. Will do well i think at Dragons.

That was the point. The best Warriors teams (and most consistent) have always had a mix of steady and flamboyant players. For whatever reason it just didn't work out.

Kennedy has always been a soft front rower. Must be the only one running around who has been smashed by a half thats 30kg+ lighter then him.

You continue to show you have NFI about the roosters. Tommy is right, FPN might look tough and act tough when there's a stink brewing, his actual output is shocking. He spends more time passing the ball and being an apparent link forward than he does trampling a defence line. Too many times we rooster fan have seen weak 4 hit ups for 23m style stats from FPN.

Exactly.

I'm no huge Martin Kennedy fan. But he is a solid, experienced front rower. He also played some good games for us in the back end of 2013 against Souths and Manly.

We were lacking an extra big man up front and he fills that gap. And he's great value at minimum wage with the Broncos paying the large % of his wage :D

This is just plain incorrect.

Ask Kiwi - he took a $320k pay cut to back himself.....:crazy::crazy:

Get over it dickhead. I've already linked the article showing that he is on minimum wage and took a pay cut to join the roosters. Not gonna keep linking it every time you wanna be a trackhead and bring it up in a different topic.

I noticed the article i linked saying Barba was only on 350k at the Broncos changed the conversation pretty quickly as well.

I'll say it one last time for you, I'll even type it slowly for you.....

I don't care if they are paying money or not anymore. The deadwood is gone, we are stronger because of it and the club has funds to sign a big name for 2016.

Barba on 350K and the Broncs paying an undisclosed amount to the Dogs to have get him means Brisbane paid a lot more than you think.

A Rugby League Jurno from The Sun tweeted this...

@GaryCarter_1979: Bit of breaking Sam Tomkins news - he's joined the cowboys. #rugbyleague

To which Sam Tomkins replied....

@samtomkins1: Your spell check has changed 'bullshit' to 'news' Gary :)

:lol:
