While a lot of players are struggling at the moment Kear certainly isn't, he's really come on this season IMO.

He may not be lightning quick but he's developed a great step and is superb under the kick in attack and defence. His tackling is more convincing than some of his teammates lately as well. He always had potential but it's good to see him improving. He can get even better too IMO. A real plus for Wales in the world cup.

Yeah, he's been doing well - in a team that's misfiring a bit too which is all credit to him.

I think he's been outstanding! Injuries stopped him getting any momentum last year, but this year he has had a decent run and is getting better each game.

As you said Bullseye, under the kick be is superb. One of the best in the league, I can't remember last time he dropped a kick.

A real success story this year. His defence, whether under the bomb or 1 on 1, is outstanding, and he seems to possess some good pace.

Going forward, you always think that he's too small, but he does well IMO.

Not sure we have see the best out of him attacking the line, but that's more to do with the service he is currently receiving. I enjoy watching him running through the middle at the big men, helping the forwards out. He runs at them with real determination, when some of our other backs attack with the fear of misplacing their hair.

Best player of the year so far, and for his age, he can only get better.

Agree!

Agree with all of above. He's been excellent lately. Really hard worker and he keeps getting better. He's been solid under the high ball all season.

Rate him and Blythe highly shame the rest of the three quarter line have been garbage.

Someone at the club told me Warrington are after him.

For the size of him compared to Purtell he really makes a difference. Is currently playing head n shoulders above Purtell.

Kear has also come across a number of times and scythed down opponents who thought they had scored already. We need to try Keep Blythe & Evans as he has been solid too.

I noticed the likes of Kearney & Le'strange driving about in a Vectra & Astra that looked a few years old. Purtell Driving a top of the range new merc. But be on a decent wedge to afford something like it. Hope he goes at the end of the year and we can re-invest in someone who does more work.

Massively harsh on Purtell considering what he's been through.

A couple of times in the Leeds game, particularly Hardaker who was clear through, which makes me wonder why people question his pace.

Hi Bullseye... I see what you are saying but Its over 12 months now.

The team cant afford to carry him. and I think on occasions we are. We need 17 lads on deck that can all give to the team and help out.

If he isnt up to it or his head is not right then we need to get rid. As muchas he is a nice guy.
