And to play at 6, for all who fretted about him displacing Halley.

my only slight worry



I haven’t touched a footy properly in about five or six months so

I can't comment whether this is a good signing or not as I have never seen him play, but, it begs the question of Sykes to play centre ? If so he needs to have an intensive off season in his positional skills.

At last, some positive news.

think the only one obsessed with that idea was our friend terrymonster ( or whatever hes calling himself that day). every story linking kearney to us has said we wanted him for the halves.



providing he comes back from injury ok then bretts a very good signing and gives us some pace in the halves at last. now we need a decent and at least 1 winger.

Great news this, someone who could be a real threat at 6, I've heard good things about Kearney and what he can do with ball in hand. Should give the opposition something else to think about rather than just bashing Deacon, if Kearney is succesfull at 6 it could also see an improvement in Deacons game.



Sykes' return to the needs some work in preseason however.

Is there any possibility that we will have Sykes and Kearney as starting half backs next season?

got to admit that thought had crossed my mind too.

No, I don't think so. Deacon and Kearney at 7 and 6 with Sykes as back up 6.

That's what I was thinking. Fingers crossed!

Sadly that is probably the case but Sykes (IMO) is better in the halves and him and Kearney just sound a better combo to me than persisting with Deacon for another year as a starter.

He's a talented player and best used at full back.



Very injury prone though.
