why do we waste our time on players that the club""hopes" will become a good player.
Troy Taylor was never going to make it, either is this bloke.
Skill wise Connors has too many faults in his game, end of story.

I agree he has a lot of flaws to his game but he has a contract I believe and that's why he's been kept.
Unlikely as it may be, nothing wrong with hoping he salvages something from what's left of his career.

Exactly Mr Magic - he has a contract, ditto it was the same with Taylor. When there is a contract in place it is bloody hard to cut them lose.

And before anyone starts using Fev as an example. Totally different situation as his contract had vastly different T&C's complared to the standard contracts the likes of Connors would be on

Totally agree - been saying it for yonks  ;D

If it helps him out, when his contract is finished I can offer him a short term job painting my white picket fence and detailing my Ford Territory.

  • Yes Hampson has taken a mark!
We are rapidly becoming the soup kitchen of the AFL. Give him some food stamps, a bottle of grape nehi and send him on his way. No more fractured footballers thanks.
Bloody sick of their negative publicity and the impact it has on the club as a whole.  :banghead

He has a definite issue when he drinks but from the times I have spoken to him he loves his football and is a good bloke without the drink ( the old cold can of mixed personalities)

If he feels bad about the past, I hope he thinks of a way to repay the debt(maybe he could ask the victim ) and moves on to enjoy the gifts he has been given, that most of us would give our left one to have.

Either way I wish him the best and hope he gets back to his best form but if he doesn't take his probably last opportunity I hope he doesn't look back and wonder why he didn't just do what he knows he has to do!
