Re: Daniel Connors
You just can't do that type of stuff anymore and be serious about playing AFL JB. The old school VFL early AFL, that wasn't an issue. They're expecting 18year olds to be professional now. We need him to catch up in the maturity stakes, because he's a keeper.
Happy for him to go at it real hard on the field, pick a fight, try to intimidate someone. We crave a hard man who's able to do those things. We just need him to be available every week, not just every second week because he's breakin team rules.

How many times would most employers tolerate someone who's continually missing work because of the questionable conduct alluded to here no matter how young or talented they are?

Does anyone actually know if these alleged blinders are infact truth rather than rumour.

If the kids got a tendency to stray out and enjoy the nightlife a bit to much why would they room him with another kid? Wouldn't it be smarter and safer to room him with a slightly older teammate who can guide him a bit.
Probably wouldn't help anyway, some of the senior boys get fairly thirsty as well.

Gun......exciting prospect. A lot of ppl had this guy in their top ten to go in the draft...but it was these apparent off field issues that sent him to the back of the draft pile.....finds the pill, can use the pill and is hard at it - i reckon that is EXACTLY what this club needs.

Re: Daniel Connors
Hopefully the club can get his head right and get him fit for next year. He is a extremely talented there is no doubt about it. However there have been many talented players over the years that never played senior footy due to bad behavior or attitude problems. Regardless as to how talented Conners might be, we have to set standards and boundries in relation to player fitness and player behavior. If we let a player or players to push those boundries, we will compromise the future foundations/fabric of the club.
