He doesn't panic. You can argue his execution isn't as good as it should be. But he doesn't panic.

Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
Unfortunately, Reece was like the ball return at a bowling alley on Friday. Didn't discriminate as to who received the ball.
Got it and spat it straight out.

Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
Checked out the stats. Had the most fantasy points for us on the night, Shorty second. Quite interesting I thought, stats smats I know, but still, it is an aggregate indicator of on-field performance, and a total dud with no redeeming features won it. Surprising he would ever win anything, 8-

Geez snakey, trying to construct an argument around fantasy points, don't think you're doing Reecey any favours there.tigersnake said:
Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
It’s the same argument others used to say Miles was amongst our best on the night. Not saying Reece was, but you can’t say using an argument is enough to support one play, but ignored for the second.TigerMasochist said:

I know they used to in the old days pumped up with juice. Would they still do that today? Conca so important to our team that they'd risk anything, even his own health to play him with broken ribs juiced up? I find it hard to believe but kudos to Conca if so.

Essentially because he laid 9 tackles. He didn’t win lots of clearances or contested possessions (only 1 & 8 respectively) yet had 10 turnovers. He had 2 score involvements. He was again let down by poor decisions/disposal. Not work ethic or application.
Ruckman rack up stats on the basis of useless hit outs.
It’s more relevant to compare stats against other players in the same position.

Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
AFL Fantasy score doesn't penalise poor possession. Super coach is far better at signifying this. Despite the 9 tackles and attaining 22 disposals his SC score was only 83. Butchered it a lot although I thought he played a lot better in the 2nd half. Lambert and Grigg despite high disposals were also only 80 and 79 for SC scores. Cotchin was only 68. Just thought overall we were very poor with our disposal on Friday night and this played a significant contribution to our ensuing loss.

Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
Fantasy points are a terrible indication. AFL fantasy doesn't take into account disposal efficiency anywhere near like supercoach points. Take Stringer from last week against us, AFL fantasy 93 points, supercoach 68 points. Generally why the Bont does better on SC than AFL, same as Rance, because they actually impact the game favourably.
10 turnovers from 22 disposals is nothing to be proud about for Conca from Friday night, especially as only 8 of his possessions were contested.

Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
Just to add to this, on Friday Conca kicked more (I doubt there was anyone in here that thinks his kicking is a strength) and turned the ball overa lot more. Was running at 16% of disposals being turnovers in the first 11 rounds, ran at 32% on Friday, leading to disposal efficiency being 11% lower than his season average.
I think he's been ok to good so far this season, but Friday night was a very poor game by Conca,.

Re: Reece "2018 Whipping Boy" Conca
I didn't say it was the be all and end all. Just an observation, and it is an indicator of the good things. That's my beef, people who only see the bad, possessions or games. Not putting everyone in that group. I do not think it was a very bad game by any stretch though. His modus operandi is getting the hard ball and getting it forward, and providing a lot defensively. He is no Robbie flower disposal wise, but when we are getting beaten and out worked, his clangers will stand out more. But to me his hard work and defense also stands out, as it did last Friday.
