Player Watch Pick #5 (2018) - Connor Rozee (AFL Captain)

[Peninsula Boy]

It's just bizarre you don't hear any Richmond or Hawthorn players calling their respective coaches whom led them to repeat premierships a father figure.

What is wrong with our culture at Alberton

The coach has self-esteem issues.

Booooo.... Boooooooooo!!!!!

 

[Expat power]

If one of my kids (I have 3) said Hinkley was like a dad to me... I would never ever talk to them again.

Four kids, if any of them said their coach/boss was like a father figure I’d feel like they were in good hands. These guys are early 20’s we’re trying to get the best out of them while keeping the team cohesive. Watching SPP walk up to Kenny in the change rooms and give him a huge hug made me realise why Ken’s strength is man management - SPP has spent the year doing rehab watching from the sidelines and looks as invested as anyone.

 

[Expat power]

Of course they do.

Before social media they did but not anymore.

A lot of these kids have moved away from home for the first time to play for us. As a country lad who moved to the city for uni, it was certainly a challenge for me to keep on track and pass. Whilst funds were tight, I still found the resources to regularly booze on and get into all sorts.
These kids have more funds and time to get up to way more mischief than I did! Having a father figure probably isn’t a bad thing if it helps keep you on track*

So obvious we made the wrong call with the captaincy.

So obvious we made the wrong call with the captaincy.

Jhf had already shown he was a better leader last year unfortunately.... But that would of been the brave decision.

 

[Harlott]

He literally went half arsed mode with his tackles that qtr. You shouldn’t be captain mate until you sort out if you want to lead by example first.

 

[Visenfest]

Absolute pissweak pretty boy.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Soft tackling in the premiership quarter.

Icing player..not cake.

 

[Ljc_86]

he’s got no heart or balls. Soft as (ironically) butters

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Job done for daddy last week

 

[Chrizzt]

3 contested touches for the game despite playing full time midfield.

Oh captain my captain

 

[Schulzenfest]

****ing hell. Whatever goodwill that win just earned just got torpedoed by Rozee's post match interview. The most mission accomplished, where are the Hinkley haters now, we don't listen to the white noise, remember 2012 bullshit I've ever heard. We're definitely losing next week.

Is Connor still wondering what all those armchair critics who don't know what we're about will be saying tonight?

Never mind, mission accomplished after we barely beat 7th because Sicily missed a set shot. Really proved the critics wrong.

You'd hope he goes away and develops some sort of hard edge in the off season.
Wouldn't count on it though

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

After 3 finals series, gotta say

What a weak, down hill skier. How about learn to tackle in the off season

 

[finbarr]

Weak captain. Goes completely missing when it matters, incapable of doing the team lifting acts. JHF is the obvious choice, just as Boak was in 2013.

 

[Powerade 08]

What a horrible player. How he loses his man at every contest

 

[manureid]

His season was over last week when they saved Ken's job

 

[Pappagallo]

Reminds me of when Wanganeen was captain. Good player but not the right personality to be a leader of men.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him relinquish the captaincy in the next year or two and he’ll probably perform better without the weight on his shoulders. It’s just not for him.

 

[gbear]

Weak as piss leader. Club ****ed up big time appointing this part time footballer as captain.

 

[gbear]

Careful, mum might be reading this

She can **** right off.
