Reece Conca [merged]

[Oiafi]

Just watched the Westcoast game where Jack kicked 10. Watched Tambo running around in the number 30. I was struct by how much happier I was with our current number 30. Conca's going to be an upgrade.

Surely Reece will be the Rising Star this week. Another 24 possies and in our bests.

Thought exactly the same thing.

Was sensational.

[mightytiges]

I thought Reece was one positive out of today. Mostly because he was one working in the first quarter and finding the ball against the tide when most of his older teammates went missing. Fifth week in a row he's got over 20 possies too. He'll probably miss out again for the rising star nomination because we lost though.

[Judge Roughneck]

Found the ball more than anyone St Richmond outside

deledio. Martin. Cotchin. Grigg. Foley nahas. Houli. Jackson.

2nd out of afl players that can win the rising star this after heppell. Ahead of swallow in 3rd.

Savage gets the rising star nom

[TigerLand]

This round, give this kid an effing Rising Stat nomination for gods sake.

[tony_montana]

any still have any doubts?  He's getting better and better each week - going to be a gun

[Hellenic Tiger]

Surely this week he gets his nomination. Gold Coast has the bye.

One piece of play from the kid whose shorts look too big, will live long.

25.06 of the final term - Check it out..

Conca is going beautifully......is making a mockery of Tambling/Polo/Conners.Already a superior player to those three spuds after only 9 games.

I know he's had a top debut year so far and we are coming off the bye but Reece looked a bit sluggish today. He got caught a fair few times and wasn't as clean with his hands as usual (I know the ball was slippery). It wouldn't be a surprise if the long season and playing every game is starting to have a tiring effect but hopefully it was just a bad day today and Reece will be up again and back on his game against Brisbane.

Yeah agree been superb RC, looked sore after the PA game in Darwin, glad we got the bye for him to rest up. Shows what a long season can do to you. Would benefit from a 2 week break imo

Reckon it had more to do with not being able to come up mentally after having a relaxing weekend before, rookies would struggle with being able to mentally switch on and off.
