Can't stand the modern game, this is a perfect example of it. Referee can smash one side with 6 agains and create momentum flows. Momentum rarely gets dictated by the players anymore.

Particulalrly given the fact that 95% of tackles you can ping someone for working them over in the tackle, not marking up square, tackled player getting up and jumping out to the side of the marker.

And you only ever seem to cop them against you in your own 20-30.

Hate it.

One thing tonight proves, line speed in defense is everything. Provided you don't get pinged for it.

Doesn’t take away from the fact he has peaked and his great isn’t that great.
Is that your fact to takeaway?
I'll give you another fact to takeaway
Reece and Timmy T have never gone the whole way either.

Are you trying to say "we'll never win a comp with Will Kennedy" ?
I mean, that wouldn't be the first time someone has said that, has it?
Is it justified?
Dunno, it's kind of on the "we won't win a comp with Nicho" scale.
Maybe we won't win a comp with Brailey 2, maybe we won't win a comp with Tricky.

There are many unanswered questions, until the questions have been answered.

Bubby, don’t over complicate what I’m saying mate, WK isn’t as attacking, skilful, smart or fast as the best fullbacks in the game. I don’t particularly like him that much. I don’t really need to defend it.

Watching Warriors and the Rorts - how good would it be if we had a fast backline that could pass. Given forwards do about 30% of the runs in a set since 2020, probably where the investments need to be.

I'm not over complicating anything.
I look at everything from a club perspective.

I'll always love WK. He is Gamilaraay, as am I.
Doesn't mean I don't see the faults.
It also means I do not see what is best for the team as a whole.
If you can give me an alternative then let me know.
I do see your real issue is as the team roster/structure.
And that's cool, but it's never about one player.
