Kennedy agrees to join the Eagles

[Sublime]

My god his run up is ugly. Effective; but damn ugly.

His first goal had a 10 metre stutter!

I can't remember ever hearing the crowd all laugh together at once quite like when he stuttered in for that first goal. It just seemed to go on forever, like he was taking the pi$$!

JK's done very well at the Weagles. However Masten and the other pick have been a total disaster though. Armfield has been outstanding. Blues won that trade by a massive margin, which is how it should be.

Now, JK's goal approach. This is a time bomb waiting to happen. Once he starts missing a few he'll have to drop that embarrassing "Ben Reid" approach, and that'll put him back a fair bit. Not good for a younger KP forward to do weird stuff like that early in his career, because he'll be stuffed when it falls apart i.e. have to relearn a new approach.

Imagine if somehow kept him....

Would staigten us right up, I reckon Hendo will be just as good

Kennedy is performing very well in a team that has a 2nd rate mid-field, if he was in a team with a significantly better mid-field he would be a gun.
He is really now a quality hard working key forward, that would only be better with greater mid-field supply.
Like most Blues fans really sorry to have had to lose him.

This is true........but I hope you aren't making that comparison to our midfield?

I thought in terms of effectiveness with the last kick inside 50 the WCE put our mids to shame yesterday.

The number of times Henderson made his lead only to have the ball go over his head or bounce short was disgraceful, and its not limited to yesterday. it's been poor most of the year.

Kennedy on the other hand has been the beneficiary this year of some lace out work onto his chest as he leads.

Henderson must have been drooling from the other end.

For all the hype about our mids, they can improve a shyteload with their disposal I50.

On JK he has turned into the player I thought he would, and would have many on this board eating their words. They would do well to remember this the next time they wish to bag Hendo, who is doing far more at the same age than JK was.

JK has turned into the player I thought he would be. Odd run up but very effective!

As Kouta said on SEN 2 weeks ago ag=fter speaking to Josh,

'Joshs dream in the future is to play CHF for Carlton'.

He will come home 1 day...!

Please elaborate...?

Hendo will be better. He shows a lot more leadership and doing the 1%'s than Kennedy did at the same stage. I think the Blues would of learned what happened with JK's development and not mess with Hendo's. In 18 months, Hendo will be a great CHF. Bookmark it.

Thanks again for killing a good discussion with more of your bullshit that belongs in the Bay.

Love JK. Would love him back at the Blues but doubt it, will be a true elite player of the comp in 2-3 years time.

 

[blueboy25]

Josh is going to be a good player for the eagles for a long time, would love him to still be at the blues but would take judd and army over JK, Mastenbator and tony notte everyday of the week and twice on sundays.

I am sure in a few years times when brown and fev are retired everyone will be saying that Hendo would be perfect in the lions forward line.

I hope so Would be very pleasing.

I, like most carlton fans, am still chuffed at the trade we brokered

I;m with you AJ he really does the 1% and he can kick...that goal yesterday from the pocket on the 50, was a ripper, the big plus is he has a big engine...he will be a ripper
