List Mgmt. Welcome to West Coast : Connor West

[UseR2006]

Even worse, he looks injured for real this week

Simmo confirmed today looks like he has hurt his ankle, no timeframe provided yet though.

 

[FKASC]

So our two emergency draftees are unavailable

 

[Jandamarra]

Possible debut this weekend has me very excited

Pure mid and has to be planted into the middle. Loved how they touched on his endurance on the WAFL show

 

[Cuzz09]

Good to see another debutant.

Good luck Westy

West confirmed as making his debut this weekend.

He’ll be the 261st Eagles’ player, the first Connor, the fifth player in the number 36 (after McInnes, C.Wilson, Read and Hart), and just the second mid-season draftee to play. Points for anyone who names the first.

Robbie and Connor West become the third father-son duo to appear for West Coast, after Michael and Jacob Brennan

Already our best player?

Let's hope he goes as well as another curly-haired, mature-aged midfield recruit we got from the WAFL did.

 

[Bender_]

Will he live up to the lofty heights of former #36 Phil Read by being a punchable pest?

Wikipedia suggests it was Damien Hampson (1992 mid-season draft).

On field yes
Off field the Eagles mods on here still have PTSD from dealing with it

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Good Luck Bodhi!

I put you in my supercoach earlier this week as I had a hunch.

 

[RookiePick]

Stoked he managed to get time off from "Farmer wants a Wife" to debut for us.

Reminds me of Judd

 

[THE A5]

Reminds me of Judd

All jokes a side he actually reminds me of a Rory Sloane. Small inside mid that just hunts the man and the footy with some serious intensity. Tho I think Conner has a touch more explosiveness(from the few games I've seen). Would be anything if Westy's game can translate at the next level. Hope Simmo lines hiim up next to sloaney

 

[Jandamarra]

He’s literally my favourite player already. And I hope he shows you campaigners why on the weekend.

 

[mattyc75]

When we picked him up i messaged a west perth player i briefly worked with asking him about West
We wrote back 'he is a gun'
I responded so you think he'll make it at afl level
He just wrote back 'Gun'
High praise indeed especially when i think of other times he's given me his opinion of other eagles recruits that he has played with/against and is mates with

I was thinking peak Scott Selwood could be the sort of style he'd be suited for, with his toughness the burst from the contest.

Seems to be a better kick than Scott. Also more of a genuine offensive midfielder plus has more pace. Overall I don’t think he shares too much of a likeness, hopefully especially concerning the debilitating ankle injury.

 

[Cuzz09]

lol never even seen him before this pic.

Scott Selwood 2012 is exactly what our midfield is missing. That tough mid who would block , tackle and could accumulate if needed.
