Would you possibly purpose a trade for goal scorer Connor Casey who has challenged head coach, Gary Smith to trade him. I believe he could be a valuable asset.

If he's willing to put on our jersey and play hard and smart... he's more than welcome to come play for us. It would be nice to have a proven goal scorer.

[QuakeFrank21]

ughhhh yeah.

[Inkstier]

He scores goals but I honestly can't stand the guy. From watching him for the US nats, he's so lazy.

[Neuwerld]

I wouldn't hate to have him, but I wouldn't make an effort to get him either. I think he's a lot like Johnson just slower with a better touch. He's been scoring a lot, but Johnson's 11 goals on a bad team isn't too bad either. Conor will be 29 next July, Johnson will be 26 next November; Conor costs $200k vs Johnson's $70k. Also, as Inkstier mentioned, Conor doesn't seem to have the work rate of Johnson. If we're going to add a striker I'd rather see us spend $300-$400k on a quality striker from Europe or South America than $200k and a traded player on Casey.

Sounds like Casey retracted the "Trade me" challenge anyway.

When reached Friday, Casey said he wouldn't take anything back except the trade challenge.

[Beerking]

Does he scores goals? Yes.

Is he slow and often lethargic? Yes.

I'd trade Convey for him as long as Colorado ate some of his salary but as stated before, I wouldn't make any great effort to get him.

[bsman]

I can't stand Casey, and agree he's lazy and thuggish. Would I take him for the Quakes? Hell yes! He's far better than anything we've got right now. I'm not sure if that says more about him or about the Quakes...

[JazzyJ]

Meh, I haven't been all that impressed with him, and I know of at least 2 of his goals that were gimmes / PK's, in back to back games against the Quakes. Take those away and it's 14 goals to RJ's 11, although RJ had one on a PK as well. But I'm not sure he's much of an upgrade. Frank and Doyle probably like him though, and they are determined to acquire a "proven goal scorer", so I suppose it could happen.
