Ellis vs Gibbs

[Hodgepodge]

Very similar players, and while Carlton fans are all telling us Bryce is the next Leigh Matthews, Ellis is going just as well in recent weeks.

Thoughts?

hahaha you're a dreamer!

Gibbs>>>>>>>>>>>>>(the margin of Franklins misses on goal)>>>>>>>>>>>>Ellis

Get a job flog.

 

[Hodgepodge]

Ellis is coming good, he's had his injuries but definitely on the rise and on form is better than Gibbs.

 

[inthesong]

Haha you ae absolutely dreaming. Ellis gets most of his touches in the back half and was drafted a year before gibbs, so in terms of developement you should compare Ellis last year to Gibbs this year, n which case

Gibbs>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mark Bolton>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Xavier Elllis

Everytime Ellis gets the ball he looks unsure and panics easily, disposal is poor too. We all know Gibbs is probably the most composed teenager going around with fantastic skills.

********s should be banned from starting polls.


Ellis who.

this isn't bay13, so quit with the mark bolton comparisons.

Secondly, ellis was drafted a year earlier but didn't play due to injury.

Third, Ellis looks very composed with the ball and has great vision and sideway movement and makes good decisions, his trademark move is drawing a player and then releasing the ball to that player's opponent right before being tackled.

 

[Hodgepodge]

this is a public poll and so far ellis leads 1-0.

Do you watch any other games bar Hawthorn.

Gibbs last 6 weeks has been sensational. You have no idea mate.

Why is it that your polls are always comparing someone to Carlton

As you said in the Hodge / Judd thread, the polls means nothing to you. I suppose you would only say that due to Hodge being smashed in the poll.

Hypocrite.

It doesn't, just letting everyone know it's a public poll and that only carlton people have voted for gibbs.

I've learnt to translate sensational to mean 'not bad' when carltank supporters are talking bout gibbs. Someone sent me utube video of him apparently getting a contested possession and then setting up a goal and all it was was him taking a mark, then handballing it off then getting a handball back then kicking it to grigg, who then ran to the left then to the right and dodged a swan defender and ran to 55 and kicked a goal lol. And apparently gibbs set that all up. So yeah i take it all with a grain of salt.

And i have learnt how to translate your threads. You have no ****ing idea about football.

You have a better chance of making sense than Hodge playing well in a big game.

Are you saying hodge doesn't play well in big games?

I was there on Friday night and the North Melbourne final. The 2 biggest games that Hodge could have played in his career to date and he has shown nothing.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Gibbs hadn't done a hell of a lot when he got the plaudits this season for tagging. He wasnt tagging the opponent's best player.

Ellis has been playing on the wing, why, because that is where he is needed at our club.

to say either is softer then the other as some blues fans have implied is just rediculous.

Personally, I would rather a player who does what the club needs then one who does what others do at my club.

I'm sure you were You picked two games one where he was injured, the second where his wife was ready to give birth and now you make the assumption that he doesn't play well in big games? I remember seeing your captain kick to absolutely nobody two kicks in a row against essendon, does that mean he can't kick?

I doubt Geelong was a big game even though there were lots of people there, pointswise, it meant little.

Here's a couple games that meant something.

The second one will also clear up the accusation that franklin chokes in big games too . . . two birds with one stone.

 

[Hodgepodge]

ellis is much harder than squibbsy too.

 

[Pie_squasher]

Ellis couldn't tie Gibbsy's shoelaces!!!!

All those cheap possessions off the HBF playing as loose man in defence is clouding your judgement. May just go down as one of the worst No. 3 draft picks in history!!!!

ellis has been great the last two weeks. 27 touches against the cats and 19 against the saints. Hardly cheap touches either, does his best work through traffic.

 

[nutcase888]

ok hawks fans you's can keep Ellis and we will happily keep Gibbs.

is it a deal? great - end thread.

 

[Hodgepodge]

Of course we're keeping Ellis and as if Carlton would let go of any of their No.1s when they're clearly building a No.1 draft pick social club up there or something.

Gibbs is the most overrated high draft pick since dale thomas lol

I heard on the grape vine they are builing "The One's" gaming venue. As you enter the door you are greeted by signed framed pictures of Kruezer, Gibbs and Murphy, and plaques with large engraving Saying 3peat 2005,2006,2007

Ellis has about 0.5% of Gibbs talent.

He keeps it in a jar with Gibbs' balls.
