Player Watch #30: Reece Conca

[NZ_Tiger]

Good luck for 100 games.

Didn’t look like he’d make it with all those injuries at one point. Still hope he makes it.

Good work Reece. Will be pivotal on Thursday night. Cheers to 100 more.

Nice vid posted by the Tiges for his 100th today: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/news/2018-06-28/conca-chalks-up-century

Was worried he wouldn't return to form after that spat of injuries but delighted he has come back better than ever. Having a fantastic year and beginning to remind me of Dan Jackson towards the end of his career. Top notch stuff, Congrats Conca!

Never had a doubt that Reece would be our better version of Jordan Lewis ... here's to 200 more Concs

 

[Hans McGregor]

Stoked for him to reach the 100 game milestone. Hopefully he gets to enjoy some success.

CONCA CUDDLES IN GAME 100!!!!

Stoked for him and his wonderful family, who manage the ups and the downside of injury and all the others facets of a son living on the other side of the country forging an AFL career.

I hope his family could make it over for his 100th, it’d have to be a big deal for all of them given his injury history, couldn’t have been easy on any of them.

I'm so glad too .... what a moment for the Concas seeing their star and all-round good guy stealing the limelight.
Pity he didn't get to share it with 9,000 Tiger fans at the 'G'.

Good to hear.

Yeah it sucks it’s at Etihad but I’m just happy to see him notch up 100 games. It’s been a long time coming.

 

[Goldust]

We've been unlucky.
Imagine watching Conca and that other emerging star and nice young gentleman CEllis, whose also been cruelled ny injury, going toe to toe in a battle to cement a spot in the 22.
F*** how good would we be?
A four-peat would be a reality.

lets hope he has his kicking boots on

Here's hoping it's not as bad as it looked. Is a serious player.

Fingers crossed for him.

Poor bloke. All the best conca

It appeared to me as though Franklin knew he had given away the free kick, and heard the umpire's whistle, before continuing with his tackle anyway.

I am not suggesting that Franklin tried to cause this injury.

What I am suggesting is that Franklin's gross disrespect for the rules of the game played a part in this injury occurring.

Will anything happen to him as a result? Of course not.

A few years ago, Lindsay Thomas played within the rules of the game and caused a similar injury to this. Rules were changed as a result.

In this case, Franklin had already broken the rules, and continued breaking them, leading to this injury.

Good to see the Tigers players getting around Conca once he was lifted onto the stretcher mobile.
