Hodge vs Watson

[buddy2fernando]

Essenscum mate and I are having an argument on who the better player is.
Watson hasn't won shit in his career while hodge is highly decorated however he claims Watson is better now even though hodge has missed pretty much the whole year through injury.

Anyway thoughts ?

 

[Jaeger]

Better mark? Hodge

Better kick? Hodge

Better all round skills? Hodge

More versatile? Hodge

More damaging? Hodge

Better footballer? Hodge

 

[The GOAT]

Hodge has had the better career but Watson is substantially better right now

 

[larson]

[Jaeger]

So Larson, you think Jobe is more damaging?

Leading the AFL in turnovers/clangers, I believe.

Without a doubt he is more damaging. I can't believe you would disagree.

Than Hodge? Luke Hodge?

Not even in the top 30, nice try.
Jobe easily atm.

 

[Jaeger]

Jobe easily atm.

Leading Essendon then.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

Not even.

 

[larson]

Than Hodge? Luke Hodge?

hahaha Hodge damaging, lol, maybe back in 2008 pal

 

[Jobe Watson]

Not even in the top 30, nice try.
Jobe easily atm.

No doubt another idiot that is confusing the "clearances" stat with the "clangers" stat. It makes me laugh.

Watson is a much better player right at this moment.

 

[Bazzar]

Only a Hawk supporter could vote Hodge. Watson pure gun.

 

[The Bomb]

Watson will be AA captain 2012 and possibly a Brownlow medalist, so on a individual basis Watson, but Hodge could be a Premiership captain so right team helps alot in these kinds of arguements as they get glorified much more.

 

[Paranoid]

Hodge has had the better career but Watson is substantially better right now

 

[Igloo]

Jobe has been better this year, but Hodge has been injured for a fair while. Hodge has easily been better career wise, so I think it would only be right to say he's better.

Yeah this. Which one is the OP asking though?

Career - Hodge.
Now - Watson.

 

[Jaeger]

If I agreed with you we would both be wrong.

 

[Upgrayedd]

Maybe if Jobe does a knee and misses about 12 games in a season we can then measure him against Hodge's season?

Right now? I would take Jobe because Hodge is unfit and battling a PCL comeback. Career wise Hodge.

 

[larson]

Hodge has never had a season as good as Watson's has been this year anyway. So even if he wasn't injured I couldn't see him being better.

You joined BF before you started watching football?

Not sure if that's impressive or disturbing.

Which season are you talking about?

And here we are with people posting pure lies and parading them as truth

The troll is strong in this one

If jobe wins the AFLPA MVP this year I'll reconsider your argument.
Until then however this statement is invalid
