Reece Conca is a squib. Blokes soft as butter, never keeps his feet, even when he gets the ball butches it and is not half the footballer Dyson Heppel is. I've kept quiet on this guy, I've given those posters who excuse his poor performances and development on interrupted preseasons but enough is enough. Stop looking through rose coloured glasses on this guy Conca supporters....he....is....average at best. Taking him before Heppel was a shocking call.

A squib? You have got to be kidding. In poor form, skills, pace etc maybe but soft isn't 1 of them.

IF he was you would hope he is donating half of that per year to the FTF!

*pretty confident that was WCE offer and he stayed for less... although I wish he went since they were offering their first pick plus a player

I don't think wce offered anything like that. If it was we would have taken it. Pick 6/7 plus a player? Yes please.

Unwarranted hey! Your kidding yourself,stop using the preseason crap and open your eyes, he's no better than average and no proved anything at this stage. Why can ppl compare him to heppell? We could of had him and we should of taken him, heppell is a very good footballer with no deficiencies in his game!

If you want to write Conca off already that's fine, it literally means sweet farrk all. I wouldn't be surprised if you were advocating Griffith's delisting last year too. My eyes are wide open, and yes I agree Shortsteppel has had the better career thus far (a whole three years). They're both midfielders however, so yes I'd safely assume Reece's lack of a full preseasons has played a part. Just my 2 cents.

ps. Stop whining, it's embarrassing..

The internet has not been this wrong since the Chief deemed Scarlett Johannson as less preferable for our eyeballs than Abbott in budgy smugglers

Conca may be many things, but he aint no squib

Do we just get to make up any shit now?

conca was very skillful and i thought he was quite a good decision maker when he was drafted. so was cotchin, edwards (apparently), vlastuin, batchelor, and a few others.

we seem to take skillful players and ruin them. it worries me a lot.

I agree. Vlastuin and Conca especially are being turned into stock inside players which there are plenty of out there, Matt Thomas for example. I still remember the first time I saw Vlastuin playing, it was in the nab cup against Melbourne and North Melbourne if I recall correctly. He took the ball, blind turned some bloke and just showed elite skill and willingness to take the game on. I just think that these two players in particular need to be more encouraged to take the game on and put their talents on show.

He's very soft, it's why he can't get the ball much and panics when he's got it. Imo

Sorry what!!!

Soft, Conca!!! Not soft. Not in great form. Although he is still getting a fair bit of the ball and doing OK. But towards the end of last year we saw what he is capable of. Lots of possesions and kicking goals. Right now he is at 70%. Unfortunately so are many of the rest in our team, and they have no excuse. Conca will be good. Either B+ or even A grader. He has the tools, just needs to get fit, stay fit and let it rip.

Another loss, another unwarranted "moan-session" about a player. It's the same every time. Reece is far from our biggest concern. He was average on Saturday, but so were many of our mids. We got spanked for a half, and he was nowhere near the worst for us.

Comparing him to Heppel? Give me a break. Reece has had one uninterrupted pre-season, compared to Heppel's 3. Pretty sure the majority on this board were cursing the decision to take Griff, not too long ago. Thank Christ nobody here works for RFC. Reece is a very talented footballer, who's missed the benefits of multiple preseasons.

Ironic. Wasnt the reason we didn't pick up Heppel because of his injury?

I'm not sure how Vlastuin is being turned into a 'stock inside player' by playing on the HBF.
