Re: Conners
Tim Brooke-Taylor,
Notice I also said sly.
The good exponents know when to niggle, pinch, grab & get under opponents skin without getting done.
If we can hurt opponents & get them looking over there shoulder by arriving late at packs, rubbing opponents heads in the turf, starting altercations & being overtly physical at the ball etc then leysys all for it.
This is the aggression & nastiness we have lacked so often in our players for however many years & if it means getting a week or two here & there well, then so be it.
Leysys sick of watching our kids & getting intimdated whilst our soft experienced nancy boys stand around with their frilly pink dresses on ready to got to the ballet.
At last we have a player that looks like possesses a mean streak.
Lets embrace him & any other lads lads that have it.
Oh, & get more of em'.

Re: Conners
He's our second. King is already doing all that for us in the Seniors, but he can't do it alone. He needs help.

Re: Conners
Exactly.
& isn't it farcical that a rookie in his 1st season is the ONE player that has this mindset.
Players like Bowden x 2, Tivendale, Pettifer, Gaspar, Johnson etc should look at him in disgust at themselves at the fight this lad shows on the field.

Re: Conners
I really hope they pull him into line, or at least into rhombus.
He looks a very interesting player.

Re: Conners
But with Connors, people have to accept that his aggression is going to overstep that mark from time to time.
When this happens, supporters that otherwise want his type are now jumping up and down telling him to pull his head in & the club should pull him into line etc.
You cant have it both ways.

Re: Conners
Fair enough as long as it doesn't become a major problem, which it obviously isn't yet.

Re: Conners
From what I can see it was only a couple of posters who had a crack at him for his behavior on the park.
Hopefully if he's as tough as some think he is, young Dan's got the balls to be able to withstand a little criticism of his actions.
As I have said before it's more the commitment to becoming the best that he can that I'd be more concerned about at this stage based on the speculation.
He sounds like a beaut prospect so hopefully it all comes to fruition.
