I don’t think Will let’s that ball bounce to be honest.

But amazing game by Tracey. When will went down I wrote us off, Tracey (with Trindall and Hazelton) have really helped lift us up a gear.
Probably doesn’t blast that one off his chest

Imagine being the Bulldogs and signing Taffe whilst Connor can't get a fulltime spot.

Brilliant past month by this guy.
Surely someone offers him a fullback spot now for next season of 2025 come November 1st. He can not play nsw anymore. Said this so many times. Way too good for it.

Connors tackle on Cotter was incredible. Took him high ball and all and brought him down. Try saver

It's often mentioned that Connor trys hard and gives it his all but doesn't quite have the ability to match.

Well let me just say that without that give it all energy and attitude tonight our fullback does not have the stellar game he does because alot of what made him good tonight was just old fashioned guts and toughness and running hard and fast.

Bloke gets belted, he knows he is going to get belted. Just gets up and keeps playing, doesn't show he is hurt and it doesn't phase him.

He also executed very well in attack.

Congrats on the Paul Green Medal, a worthy recipient, Connor should be proud

Watching his post match interview genuinely seems like the most humble, unassuming and nicest bloke you would meet. I'm glad things are working out for him in NRL lately and for our Sharks.

He's taken the Tolman and Gallen job of the 4th tackle hit up for a quick ptb before our kick

Whilst Williams has more class , Connor plays the game twice as hard on attack and defense , for his size he is one tough bugger . A big conundrum for the coaching staff , but a good one .
Deserved his medal , seemed to be in everything , and as his confidence grows so will his game , as seen in his short kicking and TA .

The really pleasing thing is seeing Fitz adjust the way the team plays to suit Tracey and Trindall, rather than shoe-horning them into the way MM + WK played. Tracey is never going to be that guy who executes sweet passes out the back - even the one he did execute was a bludger of a pass. He's being used in a way that suits his game. Tricky too. He doesn't just do Moyza dig-in-to-the-line plays. He's popping up on both side of the ruck, playing flat shape, block shape, hands etc. on his edge.

Didn't roll Cottor onto his back. Useless.

Nope, can't even joke about it. Tracey is brilliant. What a game. Love that he got the medal.

Agree his defence has been surprisingly strong and pretty impressive really! Held up Cotter this week and managed to hold onto Dave Fifita last week.

Tracey has been immense at the back with his carries and defence, this is what Kennedy lacks.
