So who misses Kennedy?

:lol::lol:

Nobody? I don't think anybody was sad to see him go considering how much the Donkey's paid for him.

Isaac Liu has about 1/4 of the salary as this Souffle Marty and four times as much impact. Thankfully the club didn't attempt to match Donkey's ridiculous offer to fight for this guy, Evans is coming along pretty nicely actually as well as Napa and Liu as mentioned.

When do the Donkey's play Wests? That's his annual GOTY

Martin Kennedy is Brisbane’s least productive of their three regular props

MARTIN Kennedy joined the Broncos as one of their highest- paid forwards but statistics firmly suggest he is not playing like one.

The Broncos head into their first bye weekend of the season with Kennedy clearly the least productive of their three regular props.
Kennedy is averaging fewer minutes a game (32) than either Josh McGuire (52) or Ben Hannant (39).
Even allowing for that, his output in average runs and average metres made is inferior to McGuire and Hannant.


Kennedy’s average tackle count is comparable to Hannant’s considering their game time.
The 122kg former Rooster ran hard when he missed Greg Inglis in the South Sydney fullback’s great try, tracking back 50m after Inglis to make sure the try was scored in the corner.


The fact that such an expensive forward recruit is averaging 32 minutes a game is an interesting one to emerge from Brisbane’s 4-4 start to the year.

Kennedy was not a member of the Roosters’ grand final 17 last September, starting in five and making 11 interchange appearances for the premiers during the season.
He made his starting debut as a Bronco in Round 3 against his former club, when both McGuire (suspension) and Hannant (hamstring) were unavailable.
Brisbane’s next premiership game is tomorrow week against North Queensland in Townsville.
They have another Queensland derby, against Gold Coast at Suncorp Stadium, on May 16 before the Queensland State of Origin team is named.

He LOST size at 122kg? Surely he wasn't heavier than that with us?

I don't watch the Donkey's so I don't know if he's bigger/smaller, I can not put myself through the torture of listening to Ray Hadley, Wally Lewis and Darren Lockyer for 80 minutes it was extremely painful when we played them.

I was an unsashamed MK fan and it's clear his heart's not in it at the Broncos. He always put in more with us than he has at Red Hill.

The only thing I find amazing about MK is that he has gone from a 1-2 penalty per game serial offender into being a real choir boy, conceding just 3 penalties all year.

Changing jerseys does wonders for a player's discipline :sarcasm:

Bronco fans have had a gutful of him already. Creampuff Kennedy is his nickname up there.

I remember back in '11 or '12 v Tigers he bumped off Farah to score a try.

The next day he was announcing he allegiance to Queensland.

Never understood the 'hype' around him.

Looks like Shane Webke runs like Dallas Hood.

Matt Scott & Kennedy are basically the same build,yet One is a great prop,bends the line ,takes some pulling down.
The other should be sitting on the bench for A Q cup side..

He's done f**k all for the Broncos so I'm not surprised he hasn't given away penalties either
