Hopefully we see plenty more highlights from these 2 rising talents in the future

Is this another Tambling Draft Clanger Talkup Poll?

 

[lids2004roar]

Actually while talking about highlights in another thread we both thought our own player's goal was better, thought it would be interesting to see what other teams thought.

This isn't another Bling vs Buddy debate, it's all about these 2 goals

 

[OneEyedHawk]

Both were great. Maybe it's bias, but I reckon Buddy's was better. The youtube doesn't capture his pick-up all that well...wasn't bad for a 198cm bloke playing his 2nd game.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Youtube isn't working for me, so I can't answer. Tambling's goal was very good, lots of pace obviously and nice balance.

 

[lids2004roar]

I thought Buddy was 196cm atm?

Running through the middle of the ground with pace is where the modern game is heading, there is nothing more beautiful than breaking past a tackle at full speed and kicking from outside 50m

Judd's goals are the kind I like best, bursting through the middle with evasive skills etc

Buddy's was on his opposite foot which should be noted, although only 30m out but on the angle.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

It's a pity that the goal against Carlton where Buddy came flying thru a dispersed marking pack, crumbed the ball and sailed it thru from about 4f isn't up on youtube....it was an absolute corker.

 

[davey_23]

Out of those Tamblings is better.
But Franklin has clearly kicked better goals than that one on there.

That was hit prefered side, left. And the big difference is that Buddy's was in an AFL match, so his was more important. Still thats the best thing Tambling has done to date

 

[lids2004roar]

I picked these 2 goals because I had links to these two goals.

 

[OneEyedHawk]

I thought Buddy was 196cm atm?

Depends which source you use. Is still listed as 196, an article late last year said he'd grown to 198cm.

I go with 198 as it increases his awesomeness even further.

Voted buddys. Both ripping goals but buddys was in the season proper not the nab cup(Not a sledge either).

On the contrary, Buddy's goal was worth 6 points, Bling's was worth 9 haha

Interesting that you think just because it's a NAB Cup match that it is less worthy. It was a quality piece of play regardless of how important the match was. Unless you mean he had a lower quality opponent?

 

[Silvagnis]

Tambling's goal was better.

 

[wce4premiership]

Buddy's is better, i dont really care actually but i think buddy will be better in the long run.

 

[MinerBoy]

Buddy's goal was better. He had to earn the possie himself from a conjested situation and then nail it from the boundary.

Tambling's was good also but he had the ball put out in front of him and only had to use his superior pace to get it and then kick from directly in front (albeit 50m out).

 

[Hawkk]

Franklin's pick up - considering his height, the fact that he had to earn the hard ball and was veering off to the boundary made the goal magical on a wet day...

 

[dipper86]

How bout the one hand pick up by the 196 cm Franklin running at full pace and then slotting it through near the boundary line.

Absolute sublime.

Franklin gets the vote.

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

First, that is not close to Franklin's best goal.

Second, that IS Tambling's best goal by an absolute mile, and probably the only particularly impressive one he's kicked.

Third, Tambling's was in a pre-season match that counted for nothing.

Fourth, Franklin is a significantly better player than Tambling, and probably always will be.

Now that all of those points are made, between those two particular goals, Tambling's was better. However, everything else I said remains true.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Got youtube working today, and I'd say Tambling's goal is better. Like OneEyedHawk says though, it doesn't really show Buddy's pick-up on the coverage, which means I'm possibly judging him unfairly. Both were very good goals though.

 

[lids2004roar]

First, that is not close to Franklin's best goal.

It's his best goal on youtube.

Second, that IS Tambling's best goal by an absolute mile, and probably the only particularly impressive one he's kicked.

Have you seen every goal he has kicked? He's kicked heaps better.

Third, Tambling's was in a pre-season match that counted for nothing.

9 points >>>>>>>> 6 points

Fourth, Franklin is a significantly better player than Tambling, and probably always will be.

Your opinion, not mine.

 

[Hawkk]

It's his best goal on youtube.

Its probably his only goal on youtube

 

[lids2004roar]

Its probably his only goal on youtube

Listen I picked Buddy's goal because a Hawk supporter said he thought that this particular goal was better than Blinger's.

I wanted to gauge the opinions of non-biased supporters.

I didn't choose that goal. I didn't try and pick an average goal or set out to make him look bad.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

you buggered up again trying to talk up tambling, Franklin's goal was average, but much more skill being in play with players all around him, Tambling had nothing in it, uncontested posession from midfield where one players misses a tackle so he can kick it long and hope.


Franklin in rd 22 where he shruged off Harley and then dribbled it in from about 35 would outrate anything tambling can do in his career

Yeah, you're probably right.

You don't need to try and convince everyone that buddy has been better in his first 2 years of AFL football.

Let's see how the next 10 years go.
