Unsure on this one, particularly if we have given him the reported 3 year contract..... Never really got what you would perceive value for money from him when he was here, and as has already been said why swap Rooney for Jeffries as that appears to what we have done?

THREE bloody years

How many mood swings can he squeeze into THREE bloody years??

I agree three years is quite a long deal. Should have offered a one year deal with option of a further year if he plays well.

Maybe, just maybe we would not have accepted that!!

I love the way the posters on here seem to know the team dynamics better than the best coach we have had since Toppo. For heavens sake if Kear feels he is worth it then surely we should respect his decision, I think he has earned that much?

Rooneys gone and
Broughs job

I agree with Vasty there. We all know he has the ability, and he can kick 40-20s. However, he has not played along side Broughy, he will not be the premier kicker, and who knows what JK can do with his game.
Should we not all give this new arrangement a chance before binning it.
It's a team game. JK obviously sees something here.
Not only is my glass half full, I am also standing right next to the bar.

Wouldn't be much of a forum then though, would it? Whats wrong with an exchange of views? Some fairly well thought out posts here (sprinkled with a bit of the usual of course). We all know you are inclined to agree 100% with whatever the club does, doesn't mean the rest of us have to though.

The old 'Kear did it so it must be right' is a proper forum killer in my opinion.

Ok so he will not be doing the kicking but does that excuse his missing from home for five out of every six matches !!!!

Give him a chance!!

I shouted for Korky to come back many times over the last 18 months and got shot down EVERYTIME.
Who's got the stones to stand up and say they rubbished him after his return?

IN KEAR I TRUST!!!!

I trust in Kears judgement to a certain level...if he gets Jeffries to play consistant week in week out ill join my relative in cycling to Perpignan..oh i'm doing that anyway next year



Just not consistant has the ability we all know, and does not take the line on goes missing and his defence is questionable...and he has taken our last quota place up.

But im big enough and will be the first to admit if im wrong just cant see it.

thought you would have signed better with your pocket money from wire CHEAP OPTION i agree

so would I, but i bet we have got him cheaper than bradford got him

i think that i have heard it all now..let's go again..all the muppetts slagging snitch, all the muppetts slagging korki ! for god's sake shut your keyboards and let's see what happens..jk knows what he is doing (apart from peterson) let him get on with the job.

sorry forgot about everybody slagging brad drew last year and little sam earlier this year..and also comments now



1 day we will all support our team..if we win tomorrow it will be the highest number of points we have got in super league ffs get behind the lads !!

you forgot ryan

that will be me then

he must be reading my posts because he has stood up in the last 4 games..will now be a bit sad to see him go but 150k??? and what we have coming

he is going to win us a game or two in the play offs, the bonding of the team will have to start over again, =redbut this year is for Adam and Leon the lads will play hard for these two because that is what i think is motivating them

totally agree with you..that is why for once in my life i think we may have a chance of (don't shoot me down) winning it !

i am now going to sit down and dream..

class player on his day, on his day easyly one of the best half backs in the league, i think its a good signing!!

What level is that?

Good player in the sunshine.

Sulks and is non existant when it rains / snows / or is cold.

Danny Brough - trouble causer.
Richard Moore - Wasted talent
Sam Obst - who?
Jason Demetriou - bit part player
Adam Watene - Bradford cast-off
Ryan Atkins - not good enough for first team
Korki - turn-coat

Shall I go on?

All are examples of players who were not exactly lauded at their time of signing, and most of them were not in great demand elsewhere - but we've done ok out of that lot!

That's pretty feeble IMO.

You tell me how any post about Jeffries can be well thought out when he hasn't even had a first training season. You can't really give a balanced well thought out opinion on something that hasn't happened yet. All it is is a bunch of pre-conceived prejudice based on what happened in your particular version of the past.

BJ sulks? Does he is there any real evidence or is it just that he doesn't over emote. Brough sulks or does he - I don't really know as I've never met let alone worked with either and neither have you.

There is nothing wrong with questioning Kear after the event but before it is a no brainer. No one on these forums comes close to having the knowledge regarding the team, not the game, the team.

He stands or falls by his decisions so clearly he feels confident in BJ and he and only he can make that call.

As for agreeing with the club, yeah right. What I do is make judgements based on what I've seen not what I think I want to see. Since Kear arrived what I have seen is a gradual upward curve and being a realist I like what I have seen.

What you touchline Internationals don't seem to get is that it's not a case of how good Kear is it's a case that all the cards are stacked in his favour - he can see all his cards and you can't and that is why he keeps making the experts on here look ridiculous over and over again.

The following decisions all had the experts on here in a panic frenzy...

Brough (nutter)
Moore (liability)
Bibey (useless)
Wilkes (Average journeyman)
Blaymire (who the feck is he)
and all the other comings and goings....

and the list goes on. There have been a few damp squibs but overall he has proved his judgement.

Would you have done better...probably....

Beat me too it!
