I thought he was off on a Mormon mission?

I guess he didn't really want to travel to North Sentinel Island?

Great practise for spear tackles.

We've signed Richie Kennar

I am happy with this one. We have some decent depth in the backs as well now.

We've signed Richie Kennar

Any info on him? I checked the Bronco's site but the latest was Foundsome only.

That will be the final signing then. They said a while back they had two spots to fill and we have already signed Fensom so that means Kennar is the final addition to the squad. Seibold would have had a big say in this one as he was pretty close with Kennar at Souths

He was planning it ... but it seems that Seibs is more influential than GOD :P

 

[Unbreakable]

I liked what Kennar did last year, very reliable outside back. Could push for a starting spot at some point during the year imo.

 

[Sirlee oldman]

I really wish we had a reserve grade team. It would be well worth getting to games early to watch them play. We would actually get value for money.

Ooh, tell me more about this Seibs. Does he offer custom options for the afterlife?

Not a bad signing, especially if he can work on his defence. Positionally Kennar is a right-side player which can come in handy in case Isaako suffers a sophmore slump. Scored 7 tries from 8 games under Seibold so he has a strong strike rate and he's a relatively strong runner of the football, averaging a 100m per game.

Kennar's defence is definitely concerning. Last season teams were able to expose his positioning with ease, especially the Broncos who exposed him so badly, Seibold eventually had to bring out the hook and give Hiroti his debut. I'm under the impression his positional play isn't great either, so he'll have to tighten his game if he wants to find a spot in the team.

Seibs worked with him at Melbourne so thinks he can fire him up again. I always found him an explosive runner and ball carrier but pretty lax on anticipation and awareness.

2014 ISC GF Pride just destroyed him, Leary ran at him and he just had no clue, short sides the Pride would come back to him and he's just standing their flat footed.



JD just worked him over!

Checking out a video relating to his signing I noticed Siebs mention the possibility that Haas could be our lock this coming season. He certainly has the motor, question is he robust enough to last a whole season as a rookie?

If we want a lock to do the same sort of job as JT2, then he could be a good option if we give him time to develop.

Sorry Marty the vid was in another post on here somewhere can't seem to find it.

I still think the closest thing to JT2 for us is TPJ(1). JT2 takes a lot of those middle runs in his own half, and even partially into the opposition half, but can also make his way onto the edge sometimes when inside the opposition 30 or so. If we can get TPJ doing something similar, best case scenario is he can create Parker-like 2nd phase play in the middle, and hit edges like he did in 2018 too.
