Player Watch #30: Reece Conca

[bananatigz]

If he stays fit has just as much potential to make an impact on the team as Yarran does. Sure he hasn't set the world on fire when he has managed not to be injured, but whenever I watch him he just looks to me like a smart footballer, and I have a few vivid memories of games where he has just looked a class above a lot of guys. Still got a lot of time for him and think if he stays fit he will have a big year and start to repay the faith we have shown in him.

Based on 2015 squad, we have added three top 10 picks, and 4 (1st) rounders!

Surely this is based on an old article from 2013?

You need to be banned if you're making this up

 

[_DBF_]

I am making it up. I thought I did alright for such an obvious fib. Wish him all the best. He'll kill it if he can stay fit.

[RobsJourney]

This part was terrifying

 

[Tango67]

he would be lucky to be in the best 28 players

First game back in 2015 against Hawthorn and being rushed back a little underdone for the EF probably means the club at least, disagree

and his game vs the hawks after a long lay off was pretty impressive

 

[Rubber Hips]

Reece has Conca-d out?

 

[Gosha]

I hope this campaigner fires up this season

you are talking last year not this/next year?
we have a few new additions to the squad that might think differently

I think people often forget just how good Conca can be injury free. Second, the difficulty with 2016 is that we have 3 new players who could potentially make it into the best 22. Yarran you would expect. Townsend/ Moore maybe same with Rioli. If they would okay they would be playing a role. I think Conca at 100% fit and his best is best 22 in 2016.

 

[Tango67]

he was the sub in the EF so 22nd man already

Lennon, Yarran, Moore, Townsend, Ellis, Drummond, Menadue, Marcon, Rioli, Markov
would all be breathing down Concas neck
still have Hunt and Batchelor to find spots as well

Reece will need to be very fit and very good to get a game

yep i've forgotten, actually i can never recall him being good except for U18 LEVEL

 

[Tango67]

everyone is good at U18 level or else they wouldn't get drafted
