Fantastic news, few players of his calibre plying their trade in this competition. The montage video, announcement and reception on a sunny day in front of a very big crowd was excellent.

You mean that 20/21 year old that was scapegoated along with Crooks for Radford's ineptitude in 2014, who when he played and wasn't dropped we won more games than we lost?
That wasn't down to Miller, that was down to the coach not being good enough to exploit and develop a talented half, as seen, even at a side like Wakefield he's done more than fine.
Rankin unfortunately more suited to FB and we already had a young talented FB, had a 1 in 2 try scoring rate for us which wasn't too shabby, good enough to play at NRL level and holding his own.

I agree with the thoughts that Kelly [icould[/i be a big risk and paying top dollar means money diverted away from elsewhere, but if you think that we got lucky to get him at all and very much on a reduced salary the first year then sometimes you just have to go with it, especially if no-one else of similar quality is going to be available.
You can't second guess what might/might not happen with respect to injuries and player performances.
And looks like as I was typing we've signed him, good, it'll hopefully bring stability in that sense as opposed to not just fans not knowing but also in terms of not having to find a suitable replacement/new player into the club which can take time to bed in. That was something Kelly was superior to most, he was straight out the blocks.

I'd rather he sat out a few games and got right than be dragging his heels possibly getting a worse injury and have him fully fit for the back end when it matters.

Great news about his new contract.

Great news and radford said mcnuggetgate worked in our favour so big ups for the rovers fan who filmed it and posted in on social media

Exactamente. Their bitterness is so sweet now we've got . . ALBERT KELLLY . . for another 2 years.

bombed out or in, told you, my opinion of course

Loved the way they presented the deal pre match with the video montage.
The reception he got was amazing.
Fantastic news all round.

I agree, Gentle messed up by signing Miller on a Huge contract and played him in the wrong role, luckily Radford managed to get rid of him and we now have 3 better halfbacks than him.

Rankin was/is average, plays with pain, buts that it, no where near good enough for a challenging team at FB or HB.

Go Kelly
I’m delighted !
Now he’s a player for another 2 years I wish him all the best and hope he goes onto emulate the best 6s we’ve ever had - truly
We’re all in and let’s win some more silverware

Looks like, might stay, fingers crossed, here's hoping. Yeah real positivity there from you.
It was a 50 50 call so well done for guessing right Hull 1234.

I thought you said you wouldn't resign him

God knows what 4th season syndrome will be like with him

Great news on AK signature, and pure theatre in the sun as he strolled over to rapturous applause.

He was feeling the LURV!!!

Maybe he will have moved on to KFC by then.
