I know, but Dimma does speak more realistic (in a collective way) nowadays in the presser. No need to go on about it, just thought the line made in public sounded a bit over the top.

Welcome to the Tigers - Connor Menadue
- Thread starter The_General
- Start date
It's the club's public thank you note to the player for their years of service. They are not going to write that, what would be the point?
Yeah OK. I reckon he'll get picked up by some team in the draft.
He may succeed in another team, similar to how Lloyd has done ok at the Dogs.
Agree. No point. It's all about being ethical and courteous with a departing player. What is the benefit of critiquing them in public? Thanking them for their efforts and highlight their strengths is the best way to move forward in these situations.
Don't know about that he couldn't succeed at the best team in the comp when he was given plenty of opportunities to do so even this season with all the injuries he still couldn't impact.
He might get more games easily at a *smile* club but that doesn't necessarily mean he's succeeded.
At AFL level Connor looked to be more of a reactive player that would often trail his opponent, and the play rather than instigate the play or make the play using his best asset which was his pace, and long kicking.
The RFC system revolves around proactive footy and hitting the space hard, hitting the contest and the opposition and the loose ball hard, running hard, its all proactive footy even in defensive mode, making things happen forcing the footy.
Connor never really looked like it when it came to doing that, he showed the odd glimpse then wouldnt do it again, he never really progressed at AFL level regardless of how he went in the VFL.
VFL is probably the kids level and thats ok.
Good luck to him if he gets another shot at it elsewhere maybe he will take his opportunity and extend his career good luck to the lad.

Nope all done. If there was an y doubt it vindicates the Tiger's move to delist him. Had his fair share of chances.
5 years. Had more then enough of an chance.
Couldnt make it when we were a ordinary side.
Surprised at just how underrated some of our squad are. You'd think a player with elite speed and disposal who managed to be on the fringe of the team that's dominated the AFL for the last 3 years would be worthy of a cellar dwellers PSD or rookie pick
Stats are very similar at AFL level. If anything Schoenfeld slightly ahead. Probably would have let Schoenfeld go to but he's only played 15 games so possibly giving him just one more chance.
yeh but every chance he got he was horrible except the port game when he was just forgettable
*smile*. He was on the fringe of easily the best side. Ergo a walk up start for half the sides in the comp. They still don't get it/us.
