I really think any recruiting we do henceforth on should revolve completely around 'skill level'.. if a bloke cant kick or be relied upon to hit a bloke on the chest 40m away, or has no idea how to get the ball ,or, what to do with the ball, then he has no place at Fremantle anymore.....No matter what size / potential / where he ia from / draft pick he was
We need to draw a line in the sand, and recruit highly skilled players. Obviously, the ability for said player to 'get on the park' does come into it.
So, that being said, is Conca highly /elite skilled?? ..
I havent seen enough of him during his 8 yr, 100game career, but what I have seen, is that he seems to be a 'hard nosed workhorse' rather than 'elite skills' that we painfully need....
I understand 'Beggers can't be Choosers', and if someone shows an interest in coming home, well, weve got to consider it.
But I'd feel much more comfortable if someone can tell me he is elite skilled....
