A utility who is bad everywhere and contributed nothing to being one of our most important players in attack (assuming you value tries)
Yep, I saw Connor as a nutcase with no fear for his own health. Exactly the way our forwards should have been playing. And he's really quick.

Apart from having no distinct position to fall into, and not being able to pass backwards, I thought he was one of our most exciting players last season. Things lit up when he had the ball.

Plenty of backhanded compliments but that's Connor for me.

Since we are in the Berrell thread though, I'm going to pump his tyres again. My feeling is that Connor Tracey is either in the 13 or he is injury cover. In a game where you don't get injuries he doesn't fit as a bench player. If the plan is for McInnes to play as a running forward and to carry a bench hooker to give Brailey a rest for 20-25, I'll take Berrell over Tracey.
Isn’t this the Hiroshima thread?

I have no personal view on Berrell just what has been said on here and I’d also take Berrell over Tracey as a bench hooker.

Although if Tracey was bench and no injuries I think probably more likely he comes into the middle and McInnes moves to hooker for a bit if we are giving Blayke a spell

Was watching his interview on NRL.com.au he seems like a friendly lad. Has some serious size to him. I have no doubt he will get some reasonable game time this year. Good luck to him!

I don’t see matt or connor as a centre, but they are both decent wingers and capable of hard runs to get us out of our end. Ronaldo has the ability to be a strike centre and i’m hoping we get to see it if fitz can get his defence right

Big call to say Ronnie could be a strike centre.
