Kieran Owens
Wing
Height 5'8"
Weight 13st
Age 33
Previous clubs - Waterloo

Kieran moved back over from neighbouring Waterloo early in 2016. He still holds a one love for his old club however and the amalgamation into a Crosby player has sometimes been an arduous one.

Playing his best Rugby on the wing Kieran is blessed with lightning pace and even shaves his head completely or so he claims for extra streamlining.

Kieran made a strong impression on his debut with a game winning tackle away at Preston in horrible weather conditions. the poor weather on that day did not allow the ball to reach Kieran very often, so it was with great surprise through the rest of the season when it was discovered that he has no control of his arms when attempting to catch.

Kieran has always worked hard and put his time in on the training field, he was unlucky his partnership with Beckett in the centres did not earn him a spot in the cup final and he sulked away to Spain.

He has worked hard this season and has put himself down as the clubs first choice winger. He now catches at least half the passes and when adding that to his brutal strength and speed he is a real threat out wide.

With Kieran still in his early thirties and with the training regime of triathlete we will no doubt get many more years from him yet. The Crosby Faithful will look forward to him making strong runs and scoring multiple tries this season.
