I am not a Connor fan as his lack of pace will always be his nemesis and what stops him becoming a great player just like Jamie Shaul will never be a great player because of his inability to create that link in attack and find the clinical pass.
In defence of Jamie i dont see Connor having a stronger defence as he seems to have worked a lot on this part of his game.
Maybe Radford should try Connor to full back whilst the grounds are wet and soft and use Jamie when the grounds start to firm and make better use of his pace.
Jordan Rankin would have been ideal in this team.
Totally agree....
Not just Shaul's passing & ability to create , but the team needs upskilling in ball skill and attack -IMO..
We should have recruited an attack coach pre-season, but that ship has sailed...
If we had better ball retention, then we would do less defending, therefore we would have more energy..
Our attack heavily relies on a speculative Sneyd kick,or a piece of individual brilliance from Kelly,
we rarely go to our left edge, as we only have 2 pivots(central & right edge)..
Our defence is simply magnificent...
