Wasn't Reece shopped around a couple of years ago, and there was a little interest from Freo, but they backed away? Probably due to injury worry.

they were interested but didn't want to pay what we would, and also wanted a trade end 16 but Balmey talked him into staying.

From memory I thought Balmey talked the club into keeping him at the end of 2016 because he felt the club shouldn't "throw away early draft pick investments" or something to that effect.

no, he talked Reece into staying. Maybe the club were more open to a trade before Balmey got here, I don't know.

We were definitely open to a trade at a minimum because I know I read an article in The Age or HS, which said we had mutually parted ways with Conca. Who made noise first, I'm not certain. You might be right.

Another bit of good work from Balmey then :clap

Yer, but interesting that Cerra hasn't renewed for Freo yet, no doubt offered a strong deal. Apparently a life-long Tiges supporter too.

But, overall, I'm happy with Reece, at least he's willing. (unless Cerra wants to come over.)

What sort of efficiency will his swimmers have? No clangers we hope!!!
About 40-50% will miss the intended target. The others will achieve and be the result of hard grunt work.

Plays game 100 this week.

A worthy achievement in anyone's book. And battled hard with injury to get there. Immensely popular within the playing group.

Well done lad.

:hihi

I love it when a player gets the 'not bust' stamp.

heres hoping Reecy gets a premiership medal, and the 'boom' stamp that invariably goes with it.

:clap Reecy C - a 100 game tiger gentleman.
 
Re: Reece "Love Is In The Air" Conca

Reece has defied all the odds not only to make it to 100 games but also snag the best looking gf at the club.#wow :hearton
 
Re: Reece "Love Is In The Air" Conca

Well done Conc's!
