When do you think Kelly will be crowned Dally M centre of the Year ?
The Life Of Brian (Kelly)
- Thread starter Mark from Brisbane
- Start date
2nd or 3rd time
When ? Tell us when ?2nd or 3rd time
In all seriousness he is coming along but again the quality of supporters expectations of our centres is cosmically high after Killer and Skivvi and those that have gone before them think O’Connor Innes Close etc.
I personally think Parker has shown more potential in his limited stints but excited about T Wright and M Suli.
Walker will continue to build but current pressure is on Kelly IMO. Good problem this which has gone up a notch now Hodko has put Walker back where he belongs.

The 2017 centre of the year Dylan "Road Runner" Walker on his way to the try line
Question : Where are the slow defenders ???
Answer : They are clutching at thin air !!!
Terribly disappointing, barely managed to win Dally M centre of the year and get chosen by Mal for the PM game (!)

Haha I think you’ve missed the point of my comment. Where in it did I say I thought he would be centre if the year?
For the record, I am a fan of both Walker and Kelly. In a year where the team’s form has been pretty poor, Kelly’s development has been really enjoyable to watch.
I try not to buy into an argument about wheher one player is better than another. The question has to be whether a player represents value for money. At what we are apparently paying him (~$200k), Kelly represents amazing value. I am not sure If we are currently getting value for money for Dylan but I am comfortable barring injury we will soon. On their reported combined salaries, I am happy with the output we are getting from our centres.

Won't happen .... Bozo will write to Cleary and tell him he is an idiot for rating Kelly ....I am certain Cleary will take Bozo's advice ......
would be disappointed to see Kelly go as i think he has a lot of improvement left in him and he appears to be a fine young man. Perhaps with Suli, walker, Funa, Parker and Wright on the books he is surplus to our needs.

Aaron Woods was also Dally M Prop of the year.
Point being... Dally M awards should not be taken as absolute proof of anything.

I don't buy it. They have naiquama on the books and masters and fonua played really well at centre the other day. Not sure why you'd buy Brian as well. I rate him and think he has great upside but so do all 3 of the players i just named.

I’ll put my gf on it that he doesn’t... or maybe I should bet that he does 😉

How very p.c of you.. but sorry I’m an 80s baby from the Druitt. I don’t swing that way. I’m quite sure you can take bozo and I off your gaydar now. I hope your search for a compatible male is a success.. good luck
