If we have a choice who would you want to keep?
It would not be too good if we lost both of them.

Conca. I hope we trade Dusty. Time to shed the baggage IMO

I must say that after reading so many articles about him he could either be very good or very bad.

If he was to be very good (and RFC has done so much for him, he would have to consider where he would be without all the effort RFC had put into him, probably playing with Connors for $500.00 a game in the country) then we keep him.

If very bad then it just does not fit within our philosphy and way forward, so we lose him.

If you look at his history that is not so good, but he has matured well and hopefully has learnt a few things, mind you planning a trip to USA with the St Kilda boys would not seem to be a great career move and probably shows where his heart truly is?

Whatever happens I think if he turned out to embrace RFC and our new culture then he will be a RFC champion. We can only hope the footy gods cards of fate fall our way, whatever the final outcome

Dusty because he is strong & stable body. Prepared to take on anyone in the game where Conca is still learning

Dusty

though they are very different types of player

As I posted on another thread on his day he can be a match winner and they don't grow on trees

Dusty has the ability to be an elite player on the comp; one of the top 5 within the next 2-3 years IMHO. He is a natural footballer. The fact he can play as a mid who can rest forward and give you 2-3 goals a game. You could even play as a lead up forward because he such a strong mark. So much upside

WP I guess the upside for Dusty is enormous and in reality he is a game breaking versatile talent. Conca just does not have his flair and he has the hammy which hopefully is not as serious as grimes. At the moment they both have a downside, Conca is a year older and probably more mature but how much improvement has he got in him? Martin a year younger and if he can get his brain on track....the sky may well be the limit.

Yes, correct  :)
Martin born 91, Conca 92. And I agree on the maturity.
