Keighran to return

[The Skeez]

Doubt he’ll play. Just a foil. For a sharpshooter he’s only kicking at 50% this year. Albeit a ripper from the sideline.

[Bruce 38-0]

I recall his last game for the Warriors last year -3 tries. Bring it on.

[Nicola Tesla]

Darcie did say in the tweet feed in response to a question that she expects he will play lots 9 as he trained there a lot in the pre season as part of his utility roll trading!

[Thirteen]

Wow! He must be an amazing player. Maybe he should take over from Brett Morris.

[Paddo Colt 61]

Jeez we're gonna miss Jake this coming weekend. There'll be no leaving it to the last 20 minutes and how is a pack like Melbourne's dominated? There's not a weak link on the paddock come to think of it.

Reimis Smith and George Jennings are a terrible defensive combination.

[JB_Cloey]

I don't know. It just feels to early to lock and load the AK if his wrist is dodgy.

This week's game feels like a lost cause, so why risk him?

But I remember feeling that way about the away game in 2019 when we just pipped them...

It's not about dominating their pack it will be about getting close to 50-50. The Chooks defence will need to improve as well as their yardage gains each set. Kicking to close a set will also be important as well including the chase of these kicks.

Adam K has so many fans on here. Strange seeing so many of you haven’t even seen him play.

If you saw the Panthers NSW Cup team at any stage during the 2018 season you'd understand why.

It was pretty much their current 1st grade team now and Keighran was the main guy over Jarome Luai running the ship at half, went to the Warriors to play 1st grade and never really got a shot due to them signing Nikorima.

I don't believe master coach Stephen Kearneys game plans to really give an accurate representation of players potential however.

As soon as Kearney was sacked Keighran was straight back into 1st at centre where he was one of their best performing players.

So yes, I'm a fan.

I've never seen him play hooker, but I believe he could easily play in the halves/centre and be a top contributor to this team judging from what I've seen the last 3yrs.

I agree. I think he will become an important member of the team.

We will miss him badly all year. Its the same as having Keary injured for the year. Tough ask to lose two key spine players for the season early on.

[Rooster1908]

I haven't seen a lot of Adam but just have a gut feeling Robbo will bring out the best in him, think he will be a important part of the team by years end

Robbo has him earmarked to be the new Maubs, meaning he will play wherever he is required.

Have you seen Olum's defence? Or Branko Lee? There is plenty of weak link there.

[GC6]

Their weak link is definitely Jennings and Reimis Smith. So we need our left edge on fire. It’s Bromwich and Kaufsi that will do the damage against Walker and Hutch.

If we can match it in the forwards and get Munster angry I think we can win this game. Huggge test.
