Quote: BumpyMcbump "Can you explain your thinking on that?
I really do not see how x player getting a renewed contract has any impact on who wants to go to a match after that news is released. It's not like we are signing say Tadesco, Cleary and Papalii and it's first game of the season with the anticipation of the new signings, for that I'd go out my way t get to the first game, a mid season contract renewal of anyone on our books, I really can't see it.'"
Positive news and media exposure if re-signing Connor would certainly encourage a few people to come, especially after last weeks performance and those that where 50/50 about coming.
You only have to look at the hype the Kelly resigning had at the game a few years ago.
Hopefully they will do something similar pre match tonight.
