He is finding his groove.
Yeah, I never really realized that until tonight. He is 184cm and 100kg (source: Sharks website)He has some good size on him too so can hold his own.
Connor Tracey dreams of having a game like Ika did.So you haven't seen Sharks play the last two years?
Yeah i agree.I would actually feel more comfortable going into the Finals with this bloke as our winger.
Not a knock on Tracey, he does a good job when he plays on the sting but Ika just seems like a more all rounder winger with his experience. Has size out there, smarts and looks safe defusing kicks too. Gets through some good work too, think he’s ran for 200m every first grade game for us.
Problem is i dont actually know what Tracey's best position is.His height is perfect for the long cut-out passes too. But Tracey has had some blinders this year in proper tough games (like vs the Storm). Tough call.
I thought you’d be bigger….His height is perfect for the long cut-out passes too. But Tracey has had some blinders this year in proper tough games (like vs the Storm). Tough call.
Edit: according to sharks.com.au, Connor Tracey is 1.83m, Ikuvalu 1.84m tall... so I guess height not a factor... he looks taller though!

Yeh I think he has jumped Tracey for a starting winger spot.The extra cm makes all the difference!
Because NRL players on average fairly tall and he's quite solid before we signed Ikuvalu I actually would have guessed he was closer to 174 than 184
He has jumped Tracey as winger for me, or at least for that right wing
Yep, he's good for his utility value but not sure he's a full time starter over alot of our players.Yeh I think he has jumped Tracey for a starting winger spot.
For me Tracey is ideal when you need a reserve in your 17 that can cover multiple backline positions (a bit like how we used Beale in 2016).

I hope we go with Ika and Ronnie as our wingers but will get why he goes with Tracey. Though Tracey might be rested with the head knock he copped.
