LB replied to LB's discussion Report: De Belin dropped for poor form
"Kelly i believe we all agreed would be nice depth incase of injury, maybe keep Penisini and Russell looking over their shoulder. But with Samrani practically jumping Kelly, it looks like a dud. Those happen, but good on Ryles for keeping standards…"

"Wouldn't give up on Kelly yet. He has some tekkers about him and some pace, can deputise Addo-Carr if JAC goes origin. When Kelly is on form in an attacking side he can be fun. Good option still."

"De Belin and Kelly were both placeholder signings till the next batch are ready. Both are 30 or above. They'll be used this year when needed and the more time they spend with us they'll pickup form. 
But if they don't work they don't work. No…"
