Title: Reece Conca - 2013 expectations?
Post by: one-eyed on February 19, 2013, 01:04:23 PM
Next up is Reece who is coming into the 3rd season with 35 games experience behind him now.

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

25 disposals a game and recognised as one of the best young talents in the AFL

If he improves from 2012 to 2013 as much as he did from 2011 to 2012 then he will be a very valuable player for us.  I'm a fan.   :gotigers

Controlled aggression. Conca plays best when he attacks the ball and plays with desperation. When he is focused and playing on instinct he will be hard to contain. I'm expecting big things from the young fellow as an inside mid this year.  :thumbsup

More in mid-field and would like to see him kick a few more goals.

Conca does show promise in many areas,however i feel his achilles heel is his disposal.Thats the one area I want to see him  improve in,because at this stage i rate his disposal as barely ordinary

I'm also a fan, hope his pre season doesn't impact the year.
I'd like to see him get a bit more of the ball but more so execute better, not sure if its fatigue or skills but his execution lets him down at times.
So more consist quality of ball use would be a massive plus  :thumbsup

Inside Mid. Hopefully is injury free this year. Really hoping for a big year from him. Agree needs to work on his disposal.

Really like the the type of players we are recruiting lately with our first round picks, Conca, Vlastuin and Ellis.

Developing as a footballer very nicely is Reece. He can win his own footy (10 contested possies last night) and mostly use it well. Great goal btw too.

Got a fair bit of last night but his disposal on occasions is just diabolical.dont know if its brain fades or just poor technique,but needs to be fixed asap if he is to take the next step

Does a lot of work in conjestion and somtimes has more time than he realises, thus leading to rushing kicks when there is no need to. That should improve with maturity and experience.
