dobek is a clear replacement for 6 his kicking game is better than simons and hes a good all round player. very happy to see we have signed kesik next year. hes a hard working strong player who proves influential when on the pitch. lets hope we can build on this and have a good squad for next year.

All the best to Simon, but it looks like the club has done a decent deal with Kesik, according to the Star he would be leaving anyhow.

We havent seen much of Dobek yet.

The article states that Kyle is only here until the end of the year . Any way good luck to Simon !

Could be wrong but I'm sure I read somewhere recently that Tony Miller said he (Simon Brown) has the best kicking game in our division.

Can't help thinking Kyle Wood revisited.

Maybe if players do not want to stay then lets not force the issue. Maybe Dobek was signed in preparation for Simon going and who knows who else may come from him going.

You tease Baz !

The article states kesik until the end of next year. good luck to simon though think he definately deserves it.

Having re read the article it does say Kesik has signed until the end of next season !

.

Hope Kesik signing for next season & this, means he may actually be given more game time!

I'm not happy.....no decent 6 or 7....that's progress is it?
Simon Brown was one of our best players....and he was coming on well.
I would sooner have kept him until the end of the season.....whether we were to lose him or not.

I just get fed up of building a side for others to cherry-pick.
Who's next to go I wonder?
It's like de javu.
I am sick to death of watching a side develop and then see it disbanded.

Mind you...we have made a pigs-ear of trying to get to the play-offs and so we'd probably be be better off rebuilding.

Simon was going to leave at the end of the season regardless of what we did. Tony has done a great deal in my opinion to get kezzy in exchange. Roll on next season with a good preseason and the odd new player we will be top six minimum
