And if we're honest. Conca isn't even B grade yet but his last 2 weeks prove that could be and what a bonus that would be.

For me the most disappointing thing about Conca is that I reckon he is a B grader mid but he should dominate VFL like Miles and Lloyd but never truly does when he goes back.

Usually he's back in the vfl due to injury though.

Can't get a run at it in either level really.
 
Gotta admit the bloke is having a fair dip and showing something these past 2 weeks. Was very good yesterday. His work in close and awareness is a standout, kicking is still shite but thats ok as long as he plays to his strengths and doesnt try to do too much.

Conca is very serviceable, does all the team things and puts his body on the line when needed.
Having a fit and injury free Conca playing well is a massive plus and provides more midfield depth.
I like what I'm seeing from Reese and if he keeps it up he may have a premiership medal of his own
when we go back to back.

Hahaha not sure why but this made me
Laugh.
 
Not interested in comparisons but it’s vital that one of Prestia or Conca stay relatively injury free which considering their past injury prone luck will be no mean feat.
We seen what happened when Prestia was managed and then hit momentum last season, and I’m a firm believer that it Reece just for once got a long run of luck would become one of those really dependable inside bulls too that opens up doors. To have them both fit and firing at the business end ? With God willing Cotch and Dusty in too... beautiful. So many options then.

dion looks the best so far.....conca at pick 6, prestia pick 7, caddy pick 9
maybe all should be judged at the end of his careers, bloody hell we have a wealth of talent at the moment. imagine if we can get 500 games out of these 3 gems.

He's played some great football the last two weeks. Great to see.

It would be hard for the players (deep down) who missed out on the GF. Glad to see him getting his opportunity.

People have short memories

2013 conca had an amazing yr and him
Pinging his string in the final was critical .

He was also amazing last yr till he got injured .

He has been very unlucky with injury , and deserves some luck

For Reece’s standards yes bc his body survived 16 games and only failing us when it counted in his 17th. I really fear we go into a final with him and we’re left one short early like 2013.

My only hope is he has a blinder year and the BIG offers from the west come for him

Yeah Reecey had a good year in 2013 same as the rest of the Team...just good...Bloody hell time flies though! That was 4 going 5 years a go!
Shame he has copped so many injuries..
With a bit of continuity in his game and body he just may end up carrying the midfield through the year for us helping to spred the heavy going so its not all left to Dusty...Cotch and Co...which can only be a good thing...good luck Reecey!

Considering we didnt tackle back then, he was ahead of his time :)

His run in 2013 was crucial to us forward of centre.
 
Man what a bukkake session this is

He's been better in the middle and keeps his spot !!

Good work Reece

Becoming an inside midfield bull. His last 2 games have been really good. Now equal 2nd in the comp for fend offs.

Ok I know it’s a Reece conca thread but how awesome is it that Cotch is equal first for broken tackles with Dusty??? I’m sure Dusty will come out ahead on his own eventually but still awesome.
