He was sitting up in our forward line as the only forward while the ball was sitting in their forward line for most of the stuffing game what did you think he was gonna rack up a poo load of possies with that scenario?

He wasn't there all game.

Connor did nothing at all. Training was his best highlight.
what do you all expect? Its called a learning curve, or do you all expect our draftees to finish in the top 5 in the brownlow?

Um.... No, no Brownlow, did I say that!!!!

I would expect a 25 year old that's been in the Swans system for 2-3 years to at least show something. Maybe just get the ball a few times...is that too much to ask?

Connor hasn't been in the Swans system and isn't 25

WA Tiger I think all our wires are crossed up here, I am confused, Is this about Connor Menadue, Connor McGordon, Lloyd Odonohue or Dan Connors?
By my reckoning Connor is 18 years old and weighs about 70kgs with wet woolen socks on, if he has been in the swans system for 5 years he must have been weight training with toothpicks.
Connor is a jet and will go OK when a bit more experienced

His eyes were bulging out of his head.
Liked a few things he did though wasn't really enough to form a judgement yet.
Will be better for the run no doubt.

Unfortunately some people believe all the pre season hype and are expecting domination from day one.

The funniest thing is good old Clawski using a practice match for our ressies side against The dogs full side to peddle his tripe and dribble, you would think he would wait until we actually lost a real game
has good old clawski bagged any of those juniors.  absolutely not.
i was even hopeful he would be okay to play rnd 1 but in being honest i have had to adjust my expectations for him AFTER watching the game.

now the one i have bagged is a 25 yr old hack whos been around for awhile. the same hack who needed to play out of his skin to force his way into the team and guarantee a game for rnd 1.
oh by the way while we are all being churlish i still would have taken blakeley over menadue   :whistle

Yes I stuffed up, I was going off Claws 25 year old comment, sorry didn't realise CONNOR MANADUE was that young. But he still did nothing... ;D

Considering what happened the year before, you can't really blame WAT for thinking we'd just used our second round pick on a recycled 25 year-old.
