I was being a sarcastic campaigner... Reece has performed at a very high level this year, cant really see him getting squeezed out either, Prestia, Astbury and Houli gotta fit in for sure, with Corey Ellis still gotta be in the mix as well.

Excellent game today especially the third quarter when the Cats piled on the pressure. Not a hope in hell will he be droped this year going by his output so far. Haters will be pised right off.

CEllis ? Are you serious? Higgins is ahead of him plus you have Prestia Houli and Astbury. You would still play Lloyd Menadue and Miles before him.
CEllis won’t play seniors for us again this year.
WE will see
apart from getting injured he will be back, hardwick has him around 21-26 depending on form, team balance, fitness. He will get another crack as some of our thoroughbreds and work horses will be freshened up, rotated and managed.

Concs is good. Water is wet.
Ironic if Reece is the only one of the current players to throw out a decent F/S!
Cuddles Jnr or two!

Reece has become that solid player we hoped for. Not a star, but does his job to a high standard. Reckon he's set. Does the work inside and outside, and love to tackle and 1%.
We know he can kick goals, but isn't trying to much. So he can improve a bit still. That second rotation quality that premiership teams need

no argument with your post but for mine he always has been. injury has cruelled him and I have no doubt he would have a premiership medallion and be much more regarded by all and sundry.
is doing good things all over the ground and it is just a shame people sweat on his errors and then amplify them.
as you say, 'he is set.' (touch wood)

I won't hold me breath. As I said in the CEllis thread I reckon they have given him a 'good on you mate, keep working hard' recently with the video on him and inclusion in the AFL squad as an emergency. He'll need to kick the door down.
Reece is set to stay as long as he keeps up what he is doing right now.

No star, but actually does a bit of everything, to a good standard. Very few AFL players do that. And he has the ability to improve. But I think he is playing a role of midfielder and setting up behind the ball. Very happy with him. And the team right now.
Have a good break but come back on fire. Cause if we win against Sydney we are very close to top 2. And then the G fortress could take us all the way to B2B
.And maybe Reece gets a premiership medal for himself.
He’s getting better just like he did last year before injury, touch wood. He tries to play like a gun but often falls short but he is getting closer. When he broke that tackle yesterday it was delicious.

Another good game. He’s best 22 IMO.
He’s got good movement in congestion and his defensive intent is good. Kicking and decision making are generally what separates his good and bad games.

Really pleased for Reece. Lives behind the oval where my youngest plays his football. Also waves/says hi. I would have dropped him after a couple of shockers earlier in the season - I think one of the games was against the Saints.
Lucky I'm not a selector as his last few weeks has been really strong.

I like conca at times, but is it weird to say I’d be more upset if we lost menadue even as a fringe player?

Fulfilling a role. Just needs to keep being that inside guy winning it in traffic and getting it out. He’s not a silk kicker of the footy despite his draft notes suggesting he was. I reckon that’s he’s go. I’m coming around to him, just disappoints me when he makes the inevitable momentum howler

Just seen on Trout’s Facebook that it’s his 100th this week. Been a long road to get there but he’s finally managed to get himself into the team consistently and having a decent year
Lets hope he has a great game against the swannies at shitihad stadium, Not going to be an easy game and need to bury these prix
8 point game and extremely important to finishing top 2
Plays well next to Prestia actually and free's up Cotchin and Martin. That is a very hard centre square unit with Graham and Lambert backup and Edwards for flair.
I reckon it will be a pretty popular celebration amongst the players when he runs out for his 100th game. (And most supporters).
