Kenny's game was more than intercepts. He had great anticipation and could beat opponents with a swerve and speed. I think he would be a great attacking coach. I hope it happens.

the problem here is that he can't coach the natural ability he had,

he may be able to assist with structures and the like and some players may respect him due to his achievements so there could still be an upside

I know a few players that were coached in the past by Brett Kenny, and to be honest their opinion is that he’s a really nice bloke, but unfortunately not a good coach.

Maybe the club should consider an ambassador role for our ex champions, much like the EPL clubs do, but that appears to be the best option for Brett,

Didn’t he win a Comp with Penrith lower grades ?

Yes he could teach them speed and anticipation. We should get Eric Grothe on the staff as well, to teach them how to be naturally powerful.

Best practice in team sports is to replace/renew at least 15% of the playing roster annually. We may be at some sort of point this year, basically all the roster has been resigned and little in the way of rumours of new blood, especially the needed speed .

Let’s hope the reported disagreements between the HC and HOF isn’t an issue, astute recruitment given the basis of a team able to challenge is what is needed for the next step.

I heard a few of those players were quite precious and couldn’t handle an honest assessment, there so pampered these days, nothing would surprise me, 13 month contract, nothing to lose!

He could show them how to handle a keg.

I’ve coached against him at junior levels in baseball. I get the inkling that he’d make a great SG Ball coach or the like
