How good Kennedy was in his first game for us..

Cripps/Kennedy/Kreuzer combo destroyed the Tuggers in that first quarter and half in 2018 ..absolutely destroyed them and then both Kennedy and Kreuzer - gone..
Kennedy had 4 touches. You think you might be putting a bit too much extra Mayo on that?

What is he, the new Cyril Riolli with every one of his touches worth double?

He had 4 possessions and no clearances. Might have been going ok but that's hardly destroying them.

Watch the game again especially the first quarter and half ...and dont be fooled by final score line playing two men down and a bunch of kids with no tank.

Its still 4 touches. Even if they were the best 4 touches in the history of football, it's an exceedingly thin argument that the bloke has to be promoted 14 months later.

Kennedy has to earn his spot, I'm not arguing he is a must include (lots of question marks about his fitness apparently) - the original post I made was agreeing with another posters view on Kennedy's game V Tuggers in 2018 - so my view on his impact in that game's first quarter and half isn't a lone voice fwiw - also don't forget - I'm never ever wrong.:moustache:

This is the extended bench:

  • 6 Kade Simpson
  • 41 Levi Casboult
  • 28 David Cuningham
  • 1 Jack Silvagni
  • 21 Jarrod Garlett
  • 7 Matthew Kennedy
  • 30 Charlie Curnow
  • 29 Cameron Polson
Simpson and Silvagni won't get dropped.

So it's 2 of:

  • 41 Levi Casboult
  • 28 David Cuningham
  • 21 Jarrod Garlett
  • 7 Matthew Kennedy
  • 30 Charlie Curnow
  • 29 Cameron Polson
Logical choices are Cuningham and Charlie.

So happy. I’d like it twice if I could.
You’d think he and Kennedy and maybe Charlie in...not going to attempt the outs but Polson would be on the thinnest of ice...
Don't think Kennedy makes the cut. See my post above.
