Brian Kelly

Put this one down too- Top notch hooker for 2022! Exciting times ahead!

Hope it's true but can't see Grant or B Smith leaving the Storm. Can't see Api leaving the Panthers (I think he's contracted til the end of 2022 also). Can't see the Dragons releasing their captain in McInnes. Seems our only hope is Daryl Clarke who does look okay.

Brian Kelly

I mentioned Brian Kelly like a week ago. It was just a random guess.

Dale Copley - he's definitely not a rep player...

Do you know if we have actually signed Brian Kelly or are we still negotiating with him?
He must be the outside back that Dexter35 mentioned we had already signed

Hopefully it's a done deal. He's a good player. Has a error in his game but can break the line.

Hope it's true but can't see Grant or B Smith leaving the Storm.

Personally I can't see both BSmith and Grant staying with Melbourne;

1. They both want to be Melbourne's hooker, long term.
2. They both can't be Melbourne's hooker, short or long term.
3. They both want to be representative (SOO, Oz and NZ respectively) hookers.
4. It's hard to win representative honours in a specialised position if you are not playing/demonstrating it week in week out.
5. They are both currently grossly underpaid.
6. They both want NRL hooker value contracts, long term.
7. They both (plenty of players want but they actually) deserve hooker value contracts, long term.
8. Next year is Bellamy's last year as head coach (according to Bellamy).

I am aware of who he is but I've never really noticed him before since I don't watch Manly or Titans games so I have no opinion of him. Baz said he wants speed in the backline so I assume he's quick.

TBH I just want it to be a done deal as that means Dexter35 was right which hopefully means the spine player we've already signed is Burton. On top of that if we do get a top hooker in 22, we'll make the top 4 and (sports) life will be good again.

Don't see them playing cotric on the wing when promised centre.
Might be
1. Hoppa
2. Dwz
3. Cotric
4. Kelly
5. Meaney/ okunbor.
6. Avo

But that means no Burton and that makes me sad. I don't want to be sad.

If we do get burton then that's a different story. Might not even get burton until 22 aswell

I'm not mentally prepared for that

We will have to see. Hopefully avo does get a crack at fb. Might need to work on his communication though. Baz said fb is more than just having speed they need to communicate from the back. If avo can sort all that out he should get first crack at the back

 

[surfdog]

Maybe Avo to 1 , Burton to 6 Hoppa to 14
