Why does everybody hate this kid! He is better than half the spuds on our list. He has had injuries this year but played some good footy last year in patches. Happy to see him have another go this year and next.
Facts are we have Hislop and Farmer and co getting games.

farmer may not have the ability to do the spectacular stuff the conners can but he has far more composure when he has the ball in hand, not that that says a lot though.

never been anywhere near afl fit which says enough for mine

I've seen him many times last season(when he was supposedly playing some good footy) literally standing with his hands on his hips with no intention of busting a nut to run back the other way. Downhill skier who seems more interested in trying to look fancy and skillfull with the ball rather than being accountable without it. Sad thing is, for a supposedly skillfull player he stuffs up a helluva lot

Agree 100% Tone
The comments on here are ridiculous. He goes harder than Grigg and is a better kick than him and most on the list for that matter.
He adds an attacking and creative element to the team. If I had to choose, I would MUCH rather see Connors get pinged for holding the ball trying to create something rather than what we are seeing atm which is us stuffing it up trying to chip it 20m sideways to each other.

Become a popular view because loud and aggressive people keep saying it over and over again.

Made some mistakes in his short career which stamps his papers for some other people.

There's a rub on his fitness but considering he's been injured and been unable to string uninterrupted pre-season together is hardly surprising. Of course the heroes who are criticising him just need to go for a jog around the block and they're fitter than half the players in the AFL (and they'll tell you so. :rollin).

Kid has hardly managed to get on the park this season, which is hardly his fault, but it seems his game can be judged while doing rehab.

Played very few games but is expected to play like a 100+ game veteran.

Could well be a complete prick in real life but I couldn't care less just want him to play football. He has oodles of raw talent and if given enough games he may be able to reach his potential.

Actually a nice bloke in reality. Comes across as a bit arrogant and a bit of a smart arse but is generous with his time, friendly and grew up a great deal after the Sydney ordeal.

I don't understand the criticism either.

I think Dan has got some talent.

Would be delisted this year if we were a top 8 side.

Will probably be safe for 1 more year as there are 8 to go before him.

Been extremely lucky to still be on an AFL list.

I don't like guys that ride the "potential" wave for long periods of time.

Wouldn't be bothered if we got rid of him, if we do he has 12 months to save his career.
