Gaff is a much better player than Conca.  Runs straight lines, hard, skilled and fast.  Everything that Conca isn't.  Doubt they would give him to us.

Different players entirely.  Like replacing Foley with Grigg.  If we lose Conca then Gaff will not be a replacement, he will be an addition.  We will still need to replace Conca.

The Heppell miss is looking like a bigger blunder every day.

How?  Heppell and Conca play different roles and I haven't seen anything in Heppell to suggest he will be a better player over his career than Conca.

Would be sad to see Conca go.

Conca to the Eagles.  Watch this space...........................

 :whistle

source? is it a rumour or you heard from the club

Rumour from a mate who is pretty well connected in Eagletown and has been reliable with info in the past.  But..........a rumour is a rumour is a rumour!

Had lunch with a Perth footy club director today who told me that Conca
will be in FWCE colours very very soon even as early as 2013. I think
from memory that he is contracted until 2013 but the FWCE want to add
some pace into their midfield and believe he will be one of the answers.

They have apparently told him a couple of months back that they are
unconcerned about his form and not to knock himself around too much.
FWCE have supposedly spoken to Perth about Conca and his parents are
dead keen to have him over here. Conca was over here a couple of weeks
back for his grandmother's funeral and he spoke at length with Nisbitt
before flying out. I am not sure it would be that big a loss but it
could be good draft bargaining material.

I like reece as a footballer, but would he really be adding pace to any side?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

As his running coach, I cannot tell these people anything. But I do tell them to stuff off and mind their own business.
