Is Tadhg kennelly coming back to the swans? YES HE IS!

I personally believe this is a bad thing. I don't think we needed another 29+ year old.

Isn't it a good thing he's 28.

Exciting yes, but a bit of a worry also..
Roosy says;" having a halfback line with Tadhg, Shaw, Mattner, Malceski will be pretty exciting"...
Yes in one sense it will...ie tonnes of run, plenty of speed and pretty good disposal....but....When we don't have the ball......
Other than Mattner, none of them can, or are willing to, tackle.

Unfair on Shaw, he's more than capable, and was given some tough defensive jobs a few times throughout the season. It's just that most of the time, he was played a lot more loose, and it wasn't his role to play particularly defensively. Tadhg is quite capable in the air defensively, if not in the tackle, and when in form Mal's tackling, while not a strength, doesn't stand out as a weakness.

Does anyone know how much his bald patch has deteriorated in the past 12 months?

A bald patch never deteriorates, it progresses.

Coming back to his girlfriend might make him heir minded, buy he certainly is NOT hair conditioned!

You would. But then again you have no idea. You didn't even want Bradshaw!!!

Considering we lost Hall, Crouch, Barry and O'Loughlin (all 30+) this year I think it's great we're replacing some of that experience with quality like Kennelly and Bradshaw.

I don't think I'm being unfair at all. There was plenty of turnstyle defence this year from Shaw, and in the past from both Tadhg and Mal.
Shaw has been a great pickup, but tackling is no doubt one of his weaknesses, same goes for Mal, and Tadhgs' shoulder will dictate whether he will tackle or not...IMO, if all three line up together it's a worry, as it leaves us soft in the tackle across a large section of the halfback line.

Its just his view and one I dont share, but have you even looked at what you post on here and you reckon he has no idea! now thats just laughable talk about the pot calling the kettle black lol

It's called an opinion mate. Why get personal?

[goswannie14]

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one with doubts as to the judgement of Ted Richards. We should have delisted or traded him as well.

Is there anyone in the team you don't want to trade?

So you agree with me that have Kennelly back is a good thing? Yet you say my posts have no idea. Does that mean you have no idea as well?

[Captain]

Fair call. Appologies.

Just the constant banging on about youth is frustrating.
