Bryce Gibbs v Dayne Beams

[Hodgepodge]

They look kinda similar, they play the same (if not in the same position), and have similar physical dimensions.

Also, both players have unusual first names with a 'y' as the third letter, and an 'e' at the end.

Who is the better player?

 

[The Panther]

Beams is having a superior 10' than Murphy had in 07'. Gibbs on the other hand has been an absolute disapointment in 10'.

 

[melbournemartin]

Gibbs comfortably. He does need to be put into the midfield though.

How often do you see Swan in a back pocket

I know this has limited relevance...

but Adem Yze did kick a nice bag of 5 on Swan back then

 

[Joshen]

They don't play the same position Beams is a Mid/HFF whereas Gibbs is a Mid/Back Sweeper.

That afternoon kickstarted his career, quite happy to take a drubbing from Melbourne to gain one of the best players in the competition.

Im really unsure how you came upon this comparison but these two are quite different players in their owe rite.

I chose Beams for the way he moves around the forward line but if i wanted a midfielder that creates run and opportunities then its Gibbs every time.

You know it's gonna be a classy thread when Hodgepodge and The Panther have the first two posts

 

[The Panther]

Dayne Beams - 85% disposal eff against St. Kilda.
Bryce Gibbs - 44% disposal eff against WB.

 

[The Panther]

Beams kicked 3 goals on Gibbs & had a disposal eff of 82% compared to Gibb's 56% the last time they played on each other.

 

[Sidebottom2Beams]

And another 2 goals against the saints

You've been owned Sin City

 

[The Panther]

Gibbs effort in tagging Goodes is comparable to Hocking's effort on Le Cras.

 

[Invigoration]

Gibbs is overrated, he'll be kicking the dew next week if Ratten has any balls.

Riding solely on the back of his draft number.

Beams kicked 3 goals on Gibbs & had a disposal eff of 82% compared to Gibb's 56% the last time they played on each other.

Well the results from that ONE game settles the argument then...
