Fixing Conca's match fitness by making him the sub and playing only 30 minutes?
He will be the sub all year at that rate.
More likely to be the one subbed off.

Tuck the sub for mine.

Yeah you could be right. The good thing is this year we have our players all pretty fit . So Conca will be the most likey to be subbed off.

i like this kid, was he wasted as sub?

Possibly, but thought it was the right move. Didn't play VFL last week and I'm unsure as to how much match practice he has actually had.

Give him a proper run next week for sure though.

Agree. I thought he made an immediate impact when he came on.
Reckon Hardwick erred here.
Is one who can actually mix it with Carltons runners.
Certain starter next week and will play plenty in the middle.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

The impact he had was he when he came on. Though he can't take all the credit as Tuck going off had a fair bit to do with it too.

But then the scum adjusted and locked us down again.

That's what they did all night when we started to get a run, change tactics, lock us down, squeeze the life out of run then run away with the ball.

That's very scientific. Could you explain that again.

You need to be a 5/5er in Spot The Difference to understand.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

One of the few in our team who knows how to run and spread.

Kid is quality player and one that needs to be playing week in week out in the midfield.

No way will he wear the green vest again.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

Thought he was ok when he played last night. SHould have subbed off Miller rather than Tuck earlier I thought. Need Webberley as our sub next week he plays that role well.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

Needs to be mid. We need him to be a mid.

Like Ellis, the more well rounded footballers we get the better.

Found a lot of the ball when he came on. Knows how to get involved.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

Would be an unbelievable tactical blunder not to have Reece in for the opening bounce

I look forward to his development as the season continues

Agree. We want him to be our Sidebottom/Simpson type or hopefully end up like a Thomas/Gibbs.

Yeah spot on. Gee Kade Simpson is a good footballer. We need one like him.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

i love him, makes a few blues but you generally trust him with the ball in hand unlike half the other ferals
 
Re: Reece Conca

Moves well, needs another gear when he gets.

Smart user. Like Ellis this year, a very safe pick and someone who will play a lot of footballer but will never be in your top 5.
 
Re: Reece "Squirrel" Conca

He FINALLY kicked that goal. Mentally, for him, it's more then just a goal.
