Official Connor Tracey

[Milkshark]

Talakais biggest draw card is he commits 2 or 3 players creating lots space around him.

Yep, probably the best centre in the game in that respect.

People thought Manu would dominate him, didn't happen.

Needs to be in the 17

Would he have capitalised on all the missed opportunities?

That loss was a team performance.

Not sure what he offers in the 17 unless one of the outside backs go down.

Yeah blaming one individual for that performance is idiotic

We had three hobbling about at one point. Needed three Connor Tracey's

I think it's not a bad option to bring him on off the bench. He's one of those players that would change the tempo of the game - especially if you are stuck in a rut.

Just don't know how you would use him barring injury.

We should bring Fittler in as a bench consultant.

We need three players on the bench covering centre?

Freddy doesn't recognise positions. Billy might do a chip kick try, he's in.
Hazelton's tall and bald, he's in.
Tracey the underdog. He's in.
Trindall the up and coming wiz kid. He's in.

I don't think another rabbit looking for a hole in a fence would've helped last night. We didn't lack energy, we lacked execution. Tracey (no one person) changes that.

Yeh maybe. We just look like one trick ponys at the moment. When we can't execute our main plays we have no plan B.

I agree - except we've got plenty of tricks, just not finishing them. But I don't see how Tracey fixes any of that.

Maybe Tracey ices those line breaks that Ronnie couldn’t last night 🫣

Maybe.

You think Tracey is a better option than Ronny?

 

[Western Sharkie]

Maybe.

You think Tracey is a better option than Ronny?

Not necessarily no, But on last night’s performance Ronnie looked gun shy with those 2 line breaks.
His timing with his passing (and also the execution) was terrible and I honestly believe that he cost us 2 (what should have been) certain tries in that first half.I will also concede that Tracey’s passing game could do with some work!
He also conceded another but he was no orphan with errors in D.

 

[Capital_Shark]

Ronny had an off night but wasn't "bad". I'd pick him everyday over CT.

 

[apezza]

I wonder of there is a stat for conversion of line breaks into tries. We seem to make a tonne of line breaks with the reward at the end.

Look at Broncos last night - 2 length of the field LB - both lead to tries (albeit they got some luck with the second one)
