Brent Stanton vs. Kane Cornes

[bob7965]

Who is the better, more valuable player??

Thoughts..

 

[DapperDon]

Stanton is more valuable to Essendon than Kane is to Port.

I cant believe people have voted for Stanton! I am a bomber fan and even I realise That K.Cornes is atleast 1, if not 2 levels above Stants.

Well they both cant kick which is the most important skill in footy last time i checked....
The fact no team seems to worry about tagging Stanton shows they dont think his 30 possesions are game can damage them and results suggest they are correct.
Cornes again lacks penetration however can sometimes close down a player whish Stanton cant.
Both young however untill they can learn to kick and put some through the big sticks teams will allow them to run around unmarked.

Both perfect dream team pick ups however they are not damaging at all.

Bit hard to perform that skill without the football in your hands

Kane Cornes easily.

Stanton has been tagged in most games this year.

Was tagged last year aswell.

I think that says more about the two clubs than anything.

Stanton would be close to your best young player.

 

[Richo83]

Stanton would be close to your best young player.

That's why we're at the bottom, but we're not talking about Richmond, we're talking about PA and Essendon.

kane cornes by far, his more dangerous than stanton, stanton really doesnt hurt the oppostion as how kane can do so for port

 

[EagleMan87]

Kane is better, and at least he had a laugh after looking like a goose against BBBBBBBB(etc)

 

[DonMania#5]

Kane Cornes at the moment, 4 years older than Stanton though.

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Stanton has a huuuuge tank, keeps running and running, hard working. Both players not as damaging as their possessions would suggest however they find plenty of the ball nonetheless. In all handy players, though Cornes has 4 years up on Stanton, would be glad to have either. Stanton gets my vote for both youth and bias factor.

I reckon Kane Cornes is one of the most overated players in the AFL.

good dreamteamer but gets the cheapest posessions. has good disposal but all his possesions are from cheep marks on the half back flank.

Stanton for me

Stanton for me

He doesn't have good disposal. He is overrated in the sense of being a damaging elite midfielder. He is not overrated as a tagger who gets a lot of the ball himself. If he sticks to this role - he is a very valuable player, but as a stand alone midfielder, he isn't in the top eschelon.

Kane is a good player, but he does not hurt the opposition. He runs backwards to get involved in a link of possesion.

He is a good player but not a damaging player like his bro.
