Could Josh Kennedy...

[cheros eagles]

this guy is a future star for sure, awesome potential for a good ten years
the next big thing Mr kennedy

 

[Prem87]

Could Josh Kennedy be the next Nick Reiwoldt but with better kicking skills?

 

[SurreyBlue]

Good luck to the kid.

 

[MadDawg]

I have always been a big wrap for Kennedy, and it looks as though, with the help of good coaching staff, he'll reach his lofty potential. Throw in the Rolls Royce Chris Masten and Tony Notte and Carlton paid WAY too much for one of the top 20 midfielders in the competition.

absoultely, not to mention the fact Carlton dont have a forward line, instead they have a Fevola.

Ok lets sum it all up nicely:

* Kennedy is the best mark under 22 in the comp.
* Going to be the same as Riewoldt except his a much better kick
* Is 5 seconds away from really dominated games
* Is going to be better than Murphy a proven star and
* The best CHF Eagles supporters have seen in the last 10 years

All this after a couple of games, imagine if he actually completes a full season...

Ever

Carlton chose Cruiser over Kennedy and Pick 20... That's why its funny that Carlton supporters think he will go back when the club chose someone not even in the team above him...

WC would have done the deal for picks 1 and 3...

OK, I'm probably going to get grilled for this but its just an opinion people, i think that in the coming years/near future Kennedy will become more valuable than Judd.....BECAUSE a great KPP is alot harder to come by than a midfielder....midfielders can be anyone any time, you dont need a champion midfielder to go places (i.e not being biased but last year collingwoods midfield had no-one spectacular we lost by just 5 points in the prelim against the dominant side of the afl)....a KPP is FAR more valuable than a midfielder in any day and age....

It's not like he's had too much competition on that one

But yeah people are getting a bit carried away with the wraps on Kennedy

I am not sure he is quite as mobile, I think he has/will have a bigger body more Brown like...

 

[Lynch takes a mark]

Did you see kruezer on Saturday night ?

Jeez the bloke has some talent

 

[Selgae]

Yeah not saying Carlton shouldn't have chose him... From Josh's point of view he was pick 4 and also has some talent.. But Carlton chose an untried youngster over him... I wouldn't be in a hurry to move back to Carlton..

 

[Monkeyboy]

Kennedy will be a great CHF. Carlton would have been disappointed to lose him, but they will not regret having Judd run around for 8 years and Kreuzer looks awesome. Blues did very well out of the deal. Very well indeed.

 

[the egg]

Marc Murphy is imploding the competition from the inside out, there's no way Kennedy will be a better player!

 

[Selgae]

The deal was Judd and (#46) - for Masten (#3) Kennedy and Notte (#20)

Too early to rank the rookies yet, but each week I feel better about it...

Kennedy is different to Murphy no point in comparing... Is Brown better than Judd.... it depends wouldn't bother comparing them...

it wasnt the deal that netted them two top picks that allowed them to trade for judd and pick kreuzer, it was two seasons of terrible football and "unluckily" losing a mess of games to the end of the season

 

[trueblue_91]

Marc Murphy is imploding the competition from the inside out, there's no way Kennedy will be a better player!

Has taken his game up another notch this year. averaging 23 touches, a goal a game and a lot of score assists

 

[WoGiTaLiA]

Doing well for a guy who really didnt want to join the Eagles or come back to WA in general.

 

[Silvagnis]

turn out a better player than Marc Murphy? Has taken a few years & has generally struggled to adapt to AFL but he is really stepping up. Beautiful hands.

I'd say no.

Kennedy has never played as well as Murphy did today.

Or Kreuzer for that matter who won the game for Carlton.

Yet Kennedy made Nathan Brown look good last week and helped him get a rising star nomination by playing injured against Collingwood.

I wonder if Mick will have the balls to play Brown on Fev this time round?

cant blame kennedt for that crap performance against collingwood.
kennedys games this year have been impecable & he is really coming along well. if he was available would demand a first round draft pick for sure.

Kreuzer played absolutely rubbish for 3 quarters and then kicks 3 goals in the last, now he is a star?

Kennedy has had far better games than that this year!

I know it is not of your doing, but I don't understand the comparison between Kennedy and Murphy. One is KPP, the other is a mid, how can you compare the 2? If you are going to, you have to wait till they are 5+ years into their career anyway.
