Re: Leo Connolly
As mentioned by others, lots of junk time kicks and marks but quite frankly, that's a perfect introduction. He'll know they were easy touches but my goodness, what a lovely kicking action and sense of balance.
And it might be a while before he gets those numbers in another quarter again. But the froth and bubble of the first game nerves are now behind him - he's in the system. Play him as much as possible this year and we'll have a possible contributor in 2022 and beyond.
Keep playing the kids. We urgently need the depth. I don't care if that costs us losses in 2021. They've already shown they bring the hunger.

Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

Re: Leo Connolly
The most important thing was he clearly looked like he was comfy and not out of his element and he has some tools that are going to be useful at the elite level.
