Kelly and Shaul should be the two players to really benefit and able to hit the gaps with their pace.
Connor is not a running half as he doesnt have the pace.
His skills are better used as a centre where he can use his ball handling skills and get on the end of Sneyds kicks to the corner
Not even a game has been played and you have started, Fash is a favorite, Connor not good enough at stand off and Lewis B not good enough.
Connor has proved in a few games in the last 3 years he can play at stand off, no halfback would have played well with our poor pack the 2nd half of the season, in fact Sneyd was as bad if not worst and got no where near the flack Connor did.
I'd personally rather have Kelly at 6 and Connor at centre, but Radford has chosen him there, so let's wait see how he gets on in this new side. You are too quick to write players off, which has been proven in the past.
Excited for today's game, not confident though.
