Pretty close this one - on potential it's Higgins by a mile, on performance to date LeCras is marginally ahead - good poll! I've gone LeCras but would expect that to change in the coming years if Higgins get stay on the park.
depends in what context your talking about (are we talking, forward? midfield? overall?)

Higgins 'potentially' could be better, but Andrew McDougall was suppose to be our saviour when we picked up at #5 ..
I would go LeCras for this one, but only in the context of playing as a forward .. they've played roughly the same amount of games (due to the fact that we had sampi in the team, and the team itself was hard to a cement a spot in circa 05-06]), but Lecras has doubled his scoring tally as opposed to Higgins.

Higgins? Isn't this the guy that won multiple polls against the likes of Thomas and Pendlebury?
Surely the likes of Mark LeCras couldn't compete against that superstar.
i detect a hint of sarcasm ;)
always right

Voted Higgins out of loyalty but to be honest he is being judged on potential rather than performance so far. Le Cras has been better to date but Higgins looks to have the goods.........let's see how he develops once he can get on the field for an extended time.
I like them both. I think Higgins will make a better midfielder/pinch hitter fwd then LeCras but LeCras will be a better forward/pinch hitter mid.
It's funny how a guy gets injured and suddenly he's not that good anymore.

Has Higgins been injured? I haven't heard his name for ages. Loved the look of him too.

Personally I feel that Higgins is way ahead in natural ability but seems to be injury prone and those injuries he has suffered have been serious and kept him out of the game for long periods.I hope he has better luck when he comes back as he has shown great skill in his games up to now.

guys with talent will always have that talent, the hard part, like you have said, is staying injury free.
we saw it from lecras today, kicked 3 goals, and he has been out since round 1 with a groin injury... hopefully both can stay injury free .. both are very talented, and you want to see talented players play.
