Albert Kelly signs with Sharks

[niall]

I Happened to meet Albert Kelly's Uncle and Dad at half time yesterday at the origin, thought i'd share what he had to say about albert's future

EELS- Main priority is to stay, dad, grandad and albert think albert and mortimer are perfect for Parra future if they are given time to develop a combination

Tigers- Tigers have made him a "HEALTHY OFFER" and the tigers are looking at him working a solid combination with Benji in the halves (in form that combo would be devastating)

Sharks- Made him a good offer, ricky stuart rang up Kelly's grandad and said the plan would be to play kelly/barrett in the halves...However Dad, Uncle, Grandad realise Barrett wont be at the sharks many more years and they are looking to the future...(IMO not promising for sharks)

Storm- Made an offer, not looking likely from all accounts, too big a change for the kid.

SUMMARY-

As far as im concerned from what his Dad and Uncle told me, it's either EELS or TIGERS for Albert Kelly!

*FINGERS CROSSED*

good news, i see it may not be all after money like some on this board have made out, rather the combinations he will be working with in the future, sounds promising.

 

[hineyrulz]

Hopefully the kid stays, who'd want to be coached by Tommy Shines???? They already have Morris why would they want anyone else lol............

 

[Bazal]

Yeah, I'm sick of this saga. If he signs, he signs, if he doesn't then oh well...

Yeah - I'm sure playing for the current Kangaroos coach would suck eh...

I hope they are ready to take the chance with that, because i honestly think that KK is without doubt better than both players, it will have to be a KK/Kelly combo.

 

[bartman]

If he/his family are serious about Parra being Albert's future, then they shouldn't hold out too long or hold Parra to ransom to match the Tigers offer.

Either the kid is thinking mostly with his wallet, or he's respecting what he's been part of so far at our club and wanting to take that further.

Sign a two year deal with us for whatever's on offer, and back yourself to get much better offers that what the Tigers are giving now once you've actually played a game of first grade son...

 

[strider]

mmmm - what's stopping him from staying with parra? .... money? length of contract? opportunity?

 

[fish eel]

pretty amazing his family would meet someone and spill the beans like that

Wouldnt be the first time this has happened. I remember someone supposedly speaking to Jarryd Haynes dad and he said that Hayne was definatly off to Souths....

 

[nqcowboy87]

hopefully he sorts his attitude out before they make him a long term deal

well he then might have a better chance in 1st grade than at parra

I too would like to see

6. morts
7. KK

14. Kelly

but only if Kingston doesn't stay.

If Kingston stays, it's either morts or kelly for 6.


Would you think DA will try hayne at 6 again?

1. Kelly
6. Hayne
7. KK

But then Kelly has no right to get a walk in start. At most on the bench

 

[natheel]

Hope he signs

 

[COACH STERLING]

Yeah, he's a good kid all of a sudden if he signs with the EELS lol...

Hayne is a origin player, one of the best fullbacks in the game... why would you move him to 5-8. Kelly has a running game but if he wants to stay here he'll have to displace Mortz at 5-8 or halfback. I myself would prefer seeing mitchell off the bench

 

[Jake the snake]

Yeah, he's a good kid all of a sudden if he signs with the EELS lol...

:lol:

 

[Ladmate]

Kingston is better than M.Keating.

Yeah - I'm sure playing for the current Kangaroos coach would suck eh...

Ask the Tigers fans what they think of him??? Since he left a star studded Canberra outfit i think he is sitting at 37%. Myth of the highest order.

 

[Parra Future]

In saying that, hasn't he been at the helm for 4 premiership wins now. 3 with the Raiders and one with the Tigers.
