Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
Yep and we still need to find a BIG key defender to play on big forwards. Chaplin was supposed to be that guy but given the way he has been played this year that seems in doubt. Regardless we need more depth down back; we are still too small.

Doesn't say anywhere in that article Newie that they had stress fractures, just 'mild stress reactions'.

Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
Pooper sure the quality is not there as yet, however I would imagine a list structures are pretty well balanced at this point , we just obviously need more A graders all over the park.SCOOP said:

Gwad I hope that the rumours that this injury is potentially far more serious is untrue.

Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
Spot on Scooper, I mentioned in the off-season that we've made minimal inroads into our deficient midfield stocks and now we're in a situation where a couple of injuries could see the entire season unfold. Our additions were either part-timers or half-glass empty types who do little to solve the ongoing crisis. As much as Vlastuin is a much needed addition, he's simply a replacement for Tuck or Jackson. We overlooked a host of solid mids in the draft, we ignored the state league stocks and we went for questionable retreads.
If Hardwick and the recruitment team continue on this path of neglect, we'll be treading water for a few more seasons yet. The next draft could be the last chance saloon for Hardwick, and he'd better be hoping that a couple of Ollie Wines types can step up almost immediately. Without being labelled a darksider, I'm just not sold on Arnot, Helbig and Nahas being suitable depth players.

Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
It's so True Bully. We rattle of a second tier of mids that are mainly forwards who are pinching hitting.
No Tuck, No Conca, No Foley and that second tier is shot. We are back to Edwards, Vlaustin, White and Jackson.
Big chance for Edwards to step out and show he's ready for full time mid work. The rest is too young and not good enough.

Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
that 4 week injury he was supposed to have looks like being double that at the least.
this will be the 5th week he's been out with the club saying he's still 2 - 3 weeks away
damn! was showing good signs
positive is he'll still be fresh come the second half of the season i guess

Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
Thought it might be longer. That article re Cats players with similar injuries that I posted about the time it was announced made me think the initial prognosis from our club was extremely conservative. Really disappointing for him to be out.

He wasn't talking about any long term injury! I heard the segment on AW.

Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca
Think Edwards has already shown he's ready. Is flying ATM. The rest from Scoop & Bully leysy completely agrees with. We need to delve into the midfield well again, preferably using the State Leagues late on to get some instant depth with upside...(is this a broken record)...
