Title: Richmond has offered Reece Conca up to West Coast ...... (Australian)
Post by: one-eyed on October 13, 2014, 03:02:58 AM
Richmond too is also understood to be considering the position of contracted midfielder Reece Conca. The West Australian was offered earlier this month to West Coast, who were believed to have initially been lukewarm, but could have a change of heart.

Conca, who was the sixth overall selection in the 2010 national draft, has played 71 games since, including 19 this year where he gathered 25 possessions or more in only three games.

Offering up an inside mid must mean Trengove is likely?

With so much risk attached to Trengove, I'd keep Conca. Would go as far as to say right now Conca is a better player than Trengove

Id be disappointed if we offered conca for a trade to get trengrove in our mids....

conca is not great but does have a bit of run about him compared to trengrove probably not being even able to run....

wed want something decent if conca was to move on :thumbsup

because IMO he is average and the trade/pick will be under 30 you would think, and that is fair and reasonable for him

Conca was a stuff up for the Richmond FC. Heppell should have been a Tiger. We ended up with a C grade player when we could have had another A grade player in Heppell. The mistakes that our recruiters make are unbelievable. Add Heppell and Parker into our midfield instead of Conca and Batchelor and we be around top 4 for sure. Id trade Conca to WCE for an appropriate deal.

Has been just as injury prone. I'm comparing pick 12 and Conca, with pick 23, another around there and Trengove. I like Conca but I don't think he is worth the top 10 pick, so it's like getting his market value plus getting in a like for like.

It would depend what we got for him. If its a top 10 pick then I would say yes but I think this is very unlikely. I wouldn't trade him for a second round pick.

He was pick 6 in a compromised draft. Probably late teens type pick if you factor in the compromising.

So if we don't do the trengove deal we will get picks 11 and 12 and lose 23 if the conca deal gets done?

I will do the trade if it suits us.Conca wanted to go home last year and we stopped him and it showed on the field his performances were poor.I dont rate him nothing more then a average player and plenty like him in draft and state leagues.
Title: Re: Richmond has offered Reece Conca up to West Coast ...... (Australian)
Post by: lamington on October 13, 2014, 04:41:43 PM
My instincts tell me Conca can be something. he has these flashes of brilliance ie. bullet passes and knows when its within his capabilities to take a player on. wasn't able to find the goals as much this year (in part due to the awful structure we had in the first half of the year). He helps out Cotch with the grunt work (#1 club for tackles with a 5.1 avg) and had 10 goal assists so he is contributing to the score board.

He's one of the few tigers which doesn't mind getting his hands dirty and considering we don't always come out on top in the contest, I think it's important to keep him.

Is this right ?, he certainly wasn't saying that at a function earlier on this year, said he loves Melbourne & wasn't even sure he would go back to WA after his career finished

Have no problem with you not rating him

But your assertion that he "wanted to go home and we stopped him" is totally incorrect! So very wrong

WA clubs were after him, they offered him more but he wanted to stay and signed a 3 year deal to stay. He even signed the deal without his manager

He never wanted to leave and to suggest otherwise is as I said wrong

again based on performances to date, conca is not worth a top 10 pick. not sure if any club would give such a pick up on him.
for mine jack trengove if hes okay injury wise is a better prospect. he makes good decisions  he uses the ball well  yet to date they have similar output.

reckon conca will be a player for player swap with some steak knives possibly.i cant see reece getting us back into the first rnd of the nd.i know i wouldnt offer up a top 20 pick for him. id be confident i could go to the well and find better with that type of pick.

For me that means if the deal is right ,offload him

na hes on track to be a good solid citizen at best and you know what theres nothing wrong with that,we could do with some plain old good honest consistent players which reece is yet to get to mind,.
for me  the lack of awareness and  poor decision making are not easy things to correct in fact you either have those traits or you dont. its those things that seperate really good players from the so so types. in fact its these things that enable players to buy time as well.

id be happy to keep conca but i have no problem with the club aimning for better.

probably a tad early to say it but looking like those first rounders of jacksons are startoing to come under pressure. when will we do something abaout this bloke.

From BF:

Guys I was with Reece for a few hours today and told him that his name popped up on a few Tiger forums and that there were rumours he had been shopped around possibly to the WCE.
He was PHSL and I had to pick him up from the floor as he lost his balance in the process
Once he regained himself he stated, "mate tell the guys I'm not going anywhere and the club has no intentions of moving me on .i'll be there on all cylinders for a while"

Conca & 23 for Shuey ?
No.

Surely you would :gobdrop

C'mon, why would you want give up a borderline hack and a second rounder for a proven gun? Madness!
How do we get our hands on Melbourne's pick 23 now the Trengove deal is off? Our second pick is #33  ;).

Why don't you offer an opinion about the club yourself instead of just making cracks and whinging about other people's opinions? We already have Chucky for that schtick.

lol most on here have no idea and thus have nothing to offer. most are happy to rip into those who do question what goes on and actually come up with ideas to address the ills of the club. of course people first have to acknowledge theres something wrong to then come up with an idea to help turn things around.
it wont change mate the chicken littles have no balls.they are your typical nuffies who would just walk past a person getting bashed or ignore an old lady  hurt in the street, the minute they have to step outside of the safety of the herd they are stuffed.

anyway we are locked and loaded so it doesnt matter premiership next yr doing absolutely nothing and cutting so few it can only mean this.

Conca needs to look at Luke Parker's year (except for the gf) and take some notes.
He needs to up his strength, fitness and durability.
He needs to make more of the time he gets given in the centre square, and needs to be more dangerous when he is sitting on a hff.
He knows how to kick a goal and loves it, let's see him hurt some sides with a 25 goal year.

Would like Reece to make me look silly.

I've never rated him. Have never seen this toughness that so many people rave about. To me he's just an average footballer, the likes of which should still be available in the second and third rounds. Was a pick wasted, even in a compromised draft.

Fingers crossed he proves me wrong. But I doubt it.

From BF:

Guys I was with Reece for a few hours today and told him that his name popped up on a few Tiger forums and that there were rumours he had been shopped around possibly to the WCE.
He was PHSL and I had to pick him up from the floor as he lost his balance in the process
Once he regained himself he stated, "mate tell the guys I'm not going anywhere and the club has no intentions of moving me on .i'll be there on all cylinders for a while"


http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/conca-to-west-coast.1079907/page-11#post-35713693

What is the acronym PHSL?

I don't need to share my opinion because I am not the one criticising the club, however, maybe I like the sit and wait approach anyway.
I just get worn down by constant negative comments about the club. That doesn't mean I am happy or am an apologist.
Too many people have said  have said we, as a club are happy with our list. We don't know that. How do we know what went on in there? We don't.
Another thing, we sit here and type like experts, thinking we know more than the recruiting staff. Fact is, we don't. We are just mug punters who know nothing personally of the players and what makes them tick. If we did, we would be doing their job.
Imagine having some amateur upstart walk into your work and criticise your job because they seen it done on t.v. a few times.

x 2 to a tee. but just wait until he finally has a 30 plus possesion game and snags a few goals has a blinder. you can see it now all and sundry hanging their hats off it for another 12 months.

the trouble with that is ive seen many upstart amateurs do better than those we pay good money to get recruiting right.
they get criticised because their RECORDS ARE SO SHIZEN.  A kid off the street could do just as well.
maybe some of those amateurs should be interviewed eh.

oh and we can determine how hard and serious we were about f/a and the trade period. nearly everyone was resigned before the trade period began. the options were very few.
you dont need to be in the inner sanctum to know you just need to use a bit of common sense and a few basic deductions.

mate you may say your not happy and not an apologist  but id label you  a typical fence sitter.

as for the players theres only one real question  that has to be asked.and that is can they play consistently well at the level.  i  sure as hell dont need the club to tell me that.

Don't think anyone said Priddis was a dud, I believe the reference was that he was the worst B&F winner since Woewodin, FFS he didn't even win his clubs B&F so take it up with the Cokers if u must and don't tell lies
