Title: Daniel Connors - 2011 expectations?
Post by: one-eyed on January 29, 2011, 07:54:52 PM: Next up is Dan C who found a spot in our back six last year and played 14 games in total after a club imposed 8 week suspension c/o that Sydney hotel incident.

What are your expectations for Connors this year and what would be a good year for him?

Post by: Smokey on January 29, 2011, 09:08:32 PM: I'm not sure of expectations but he needs to improve his disposal efficiency. If he gets as many possessions and improves his delivery then I'll be happy.

Post by: Gigantor on January 30, 2011, 08:35:27 PM: my expectation for him is to develop a football brain finally

Post by: Mr Magic on January 30, 2011, 09:25:37 PM: I expect he will cause supporters a lot of frustration before eventually being dropped to Coburg about round 9.

Mixes the brilliant with the shocking and you end up with a mediocre player with too many deficiencies.

Just can't see it with Dan and think he'll be upgraded this season at HB.

Agree, more the issue than disposal quality. Too often has eyes bigger than his dinnerplate
Title: Re: Daniel Connors - 2011 expectations?
Post by: Penelope on January 30, 2011, 11:45:47 PM: his only deficiency is between his ears.

he needs to learn to settle before disposing of the ball when he finds space.

...and keep his shiit together off the field.

Just like Dan - racking up meaningless stats without impacting a contest let alone a match.

However, you are correct - no comment

Only injury could stop him.
