Definitely. I watch each day for news on this, hoping something positive comes through in the next few days.

You think so?  :-\

Maybe he is just not happy with what he's been offered?

Robbo on his Tackle column answering questions:

   
Comment From Dave
Hi Robbo, is Dusty Martin signing this week? And is Conca going West?

Martin not signing I'm told, and Conca stays I'm told
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do

I thought there was something about Dusty's father wanting to get something signed last week. Guess that hasn't happened yet. Very happy if what you say is true.

Love this kid in our side need to sign him up ASAP.

we cant afford to lose conca. rather delist an extra player down the list than lose conca coz of salary cap issues.

Yep lets have him stay at all costs  :lol stitch up capt, jack and lids for understand by over pay for Conca
He would be a loss for sure but no one is indispensable anymore at Tigerland - didn't you get the e mail  ;D

your a dill if you think losing conca is a good idea. the kid is worth 350k a year and if thats what we offer he'll stay.
isnt around 350k just about on the afl average. maybe just a tad over.

just a silly opinion but i think conca is very tradeable, not ideal but  tradeable. of course  its  totally depending on what we get in return. still havent seen anything from reece that would suggest hes going to be elite or for that matter consistently very good.
one thing for sure though if we traded him id hope we take a mid to replace him.

just my opinion but if conca goes, with tucky retiring and a need to continue to build midfield depth id say under those circumstances  we would  need to take at the minimum 3 mids in our trade nd period.
taylor adams would be a real get. draft another in the nd and target a mature mid from another afl club or state league. i could name 4 or 5 mids in state leagues atm who i would dearly love us to give a chance.

That is why we need to Conca to stay with Tucky retiring.
IMHO Conca is very underrated but he is a hard nut who gets plenty of it and is starting to kick multiple goals from midfield for us. He shouldn't be traceable but if he is only a first round pick in the top 5 given that he has had 3 years in the system and has performed well with his KPI's increasing each year. I hope now that word has it that Dusty has signed, Conca signs too.
Get it done Tiges. :thumbsup

I don't consider him to be really all that tough.

Has moments of toughness but I've seen him shirk the issue a few times.

However his hands are excellent and his lateral movement is elite IMO. A lot more potential also. Just needs to kick straighter in front of goal.


Must sign.

Conca is not soft. Hence the amount of head injury be got in his first season

I'm unabashed Conca fan, 3rd year pick 6, had his injury interruptions.

Still upside I think, unless you are going to get an upgrade in player then I wouldn't trade unless he wanted to go home, apparently he doesn't.

VIDEO: http://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2013-09-08/elimination-final-conca-gone-for-game

Conca injured his hamstring barely 10 minutes into Sunday's game and was substituted out of the match soon after.
 
Hardwick was not sure of the extent of Conca's injury but said it appeared "significant".
