Contracts start November 1st, so they've already paid 3 months of his salary for the year.

Fantastic signing, absolutely fantastic. He has apparently signed on for cheap and that is already a positive. He has signed on for pretty solid motives and if he can become consistent, he is at the right age to reach his best. If he doesn't, we haven't paid a Kennedy wage to get him. This is another astute signing on top of Benji.
Now, if we can get Gagai to replace Roberts (if he gets sacked), I'll be so over the moon.
This signing also means that Matthew Ridge has one further hurdle to get over to break into the team, really makes him earn that redemption.

We won't get gagai.
Roberts will play on (for now)
Will be a development program setup to help James improve as a person off field.

Is that what the mail is? I haven't heard anything, a bit out of the loop at times in Melbourne but hasn't he already been given something like that already and gone back on the drink? Will he become the new John Farnham? One last chance that keeps on being given (if he is guilty of course which as far as I know is nowhere near being proven)?

As I've said before I'm happy with this signing; cheap, experience and has shown he can be a massive asset to a forward pack.
I'm thinking he will be the direct replacement for jwall i.e. 40mins off the bench, but definite opportunity for him to grab the starting prop or even lock spot... pretty sure he played some starting lock at knights

He'd be getting a bit long in the tooth wouldn't he? :wink:

I actually would be fairly happy with for round one:
8. Blair
9. McCullough
10. Joffa
11. Thaiday
12. Gillett
13. McGuire
14. Marshall
15. Sims
16. TPJ
17. Glenn
I want to see our young blokes getting opportuinities. Let Sims earn that starting spot.

Offa wasn't even making the bench most of last year. Next to no chance he will be starting this year. He will be lucky to get a bench spot even.

It's looking less and less likely, but i would still love to see McGuire stay at starting prob with Glenn taking the 13 jersey.
Especially since we have signed Sims, who will give us a bit more experience on the bench (albeit, not a huge amount)
That way we con continue the development of guys like JOffa and TPJ until they are ready for requirements of a starting prop, then we can move McGuire to lock
It is looking more and more likely to happen!

More likely that offa will be starting? Sims and Blair will be the starting front rowers with Mcguire at lock (unless it stayed with Blair and Mcguire starting, in which case Glenn would be lock). Sims will definitely be starting over offa. Bench will likely be Niko/Benji, Glenn, TPJ, Ese'Ese/Dodds/Ofa/S'ua

I'm not going to judge him off his performances last season, he was playing for the worst NRL side of all time and was expected to carry the pack, something not even Lazarus or Beetson could have done. He was VERY good in 2015, and I expect he'll be in the running for rep honours this year. Excellent signing.

Glenn to miss out?.. sometimes I wonder if people actually watch games or are just blind. Glenn should and will play before Ese'ese, Arrow, TPJ, Joffa, Sims... and rightly so.

I hoped I would never see a Sims in our squad again.
Dunno how I feel about this
