Just saw the replay , BT called it as Conca ,

Was right in front of me live at the game , it was vlastun ,

Redheads all look the same
Like or hate his commentary, ol BT has been caught by Father Time , makes so many mistakes now, it seems there trying to have him call less percentage of games.

Btw thought Reecy was good
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

Reece actually seemed to have better skills and decision making than pre-injury.

I thought he was very good
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

From what I saw his disposal was sharp last night. What were his minutes? Seemed to played limited game time
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

A player that brings balance to the team. Plays his best football as an inside mid but runs hard both ways ala Lambert to help out defence and provide a link through the middle.

Dimma when questioned on Reece: long pause...”yeah, he was ok....”

Dimma also said they would have liked to have given Reece another game in the VFL but given the BYE decided it was important to get some run in his legs.
Could turn out to be a sliding doors moment, the extra game at AFL intensity is perfect.
Dimma loves Cuddles and I think he would be very happy with his game after the long layoff.
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

I'm only guessing here, however, having Reece in the side, would our centre clearance be close to 50 - 50 or near that mark? Based on having Trent, Martin, Dion playing the same game.
If so, could be a very important player for the side in finals.
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

Conca and Graham in the team change the clearance dynamics considerably.
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

Is this The Cuddles Coordinator's first finals win in a Richmond jumper?

Well done Divide and ! :clap
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

The only genuine weak link. Getting a game on sentiment as provides nothing any other average player couldn't. If you wanted to be ruthless dropping him for Ellis would be the logical decision but won't happen and I'm ok with that - as long as we win )
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

If Reece is the weakest link we will walk the premiership in with a canter. Him and graham tackle and harass like maniacs around the ball. Thought he went alright last night.

Incorrect. Conca and Graham do alot of the heavy lifting dirty scrapping that doesn't get noticed but are important to our setup.
 
Re: Reece "The Centurion" Conca

I thought he was lost last night. Double handled and was in some plays that didnt he just ruined moving forward.
But i wouldnt replace him for Ellis only bulter

Maybe try Houli for that award, clearly his worst game for well over a year.
