Absolute legend.
Very humble in person and under-rated as a player.

Defo a guy who deserves it.
I wish him all the success in the future.
You're a legend Kev!
 
Congratulations Kev.

50 is just the start - all the best, rip into them.

I am happy you have made the Tigers your home.
 
Really killing it this year isn't he. Very dangerous on the right with Nofo. Congrats Kev & hope the great form continues for at least another 50!
 
Glad to have you are at home Kevin .. you belong here mate :slight_smile:.
Thank you for being here , you really add so much to our team.

Hope he makes his 200th game with us….he is a very underated player..and keeps getting better every game...
 
in the preseason a lot of WTs fans had concerns about the centre positions going into 2016.
So far Kev and Simona have outshone their opposite numbers in both defence and attack.
Well done Kev. you've turned a weakness into a strength for the WTs.
 
very good player! love watching him in attack and D

hope he stays with us till the end of his careeer
 
Loving what Kevin is doing, great role model for guys hoping to break into 1st grade, work hard and stay positive. And I think the hair is coming back too.
 
Good player, great hands, footwork, speed and acceleration, very good tackling technique, with more games played together, he and Nofoaluma should become one of the better RW combo :sign:
 
Everyone was saying how we desperately needed a Centre and a 2nd Rower , well you can definitely take a Centre out of that list as i believe you will hear alot more from the 2 Centres we already have in Naiqama and Simona , 2 brilliant guys that go about there business with minimum fuss.

I'm stoked with our Centres Combo.
 
Congratulations Kev. Seems like a very humble bloke without the carry-on of many others in our game.
Keep kickin arse Kev, you've been great to watch buddy.
 
Frozone is looking very sharp so far this season. Excellent acceleration, his footwork is good, defensive reads are good and he's going to the line with the ball in both hands more regularly which is putting the defence in two minds.
 
Yeah its hard not to like Kevvie. I think his game has improved more than any player in the squad. He is certainly playing his career best footy with us and hopefully will continue to do so for sometime to come.

Geez, your right about career best form. It's not the first time we have had an average player at a different club come to us and take their game to the next level. Austin & Taupau come to mind. If we can hold our spine together and continue to turn around some players in there mid 20's form . We will be a very successful club.
I'm loving the way both our centres are playing. Kev gives his all in every game I've seen him play.
 
It's nice for a change to **be** the club that gets the best out of player rather than watching them leave to kick on elsewhere.
