Jack or Nick?

[TigerTime88]

If Nick was offered up for trade for Jack this year I wouldn't hesitate.....

 

[Tulip]

People are forgetting Nick's talent. Absolute gun and the mark posted above just proved it. Nick's the better player but I'd be tempted to go Jack just because of the phase Melbourne are in. Voted Nick anyway

 

[Simmonds2Hislop]

But, he kicked 10 goals on Eric Mackenzie and Will Schofield or whoever it was, they are nothing compared to some of the players Nick has to play on and still kicks bags i.e the Scarlett, Fletcher, Glass etc.

Name me one other AFL player who has kicked 10 on either of those two.

Your being stupid mate, they are nothing compared Scarlett, Fletcher, Glass, Taylor, Fisher etc.

Jack is a quality player, but comparing him to Nick is a bit dodge.

 

[Almighty tigers]

wow extremely hard decision i rate nick super high and love watching him at his best, but JR8 could be anything at the way hes going, so right now nick at full flight
but jack will pass him soon imo

 

[Jimbo88]

haha wtf has happened. How quickly people forget how good Nick is. This is coming from someone that rates Jack very high, equal with Selwood only in the 06 draft IMO... but seriously guys Nick was the best player in the AFL last year according to some, as good as Jack is I don't think he will ever reach those heights.

 

[Slattery_20]

I don't know who Nick Watts is but he'd have to be better...

 

[blitzer]

The only way you would take Jack is if your list was terrible and no hope whatsoever of challenging for a premiership in the next couple of years otherwise Nick was top 3 in the comp before his injury. In fairness Nick may struggle a bit to get back to his very best and Jack is in ripping form but their overall records speak for themselves.

 

[Rioli magic]

Im as happy as anyone for Jack and Richmond, but this is getting silly, Cale Morton superstar type silly from Melbourne fans. Nick FFS.

 

[ballanFYNE]

Well If Jack can keep this up for a decade him easily. May not have the skills or courage of Nick but as long as he produced 3 goals a game for a decade him by just.

 

[Simmonds2Hislop]

I'll take the one that can kick straight thanks

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

ill take Nick, now, always... will be remembered as a great of the game... to early to tell whether Jack will be remembered in the same light

Nick choked in consecutive Grand Finals, he had a shocking finals series, choking in big games ruins your reputation.

well when Jack plays in a finals series you can make a comparison

Very true, hopefully that is next year.

haha, but don't put all your eggs in one basket mate

 

[Big Bad Buddy]

haha, but don't put all your eggs in one basket mate

Yeah I'm not, I just hope we get off the bottom soon

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

Yeah I'm not, I just hope we get off the bottom soon

if you play like the last half of the season for the whole season you will probably end up around 11-9th

 

[The BRICKSTER]

both those marks are so beautiful its sickening.

Id have that Riewoldt mark as the greatest of all time.

 

[Power King]

I'd take Jack as we aren't challenging in the next 1-2 years.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Very different players.
I'd prefer both.
For example if you looked at replacing a player in Hawthorn's line up, you would replace Roughead with Jack. You would replace Buddy with Riewoldt. ( Not suggesting that I would or that Riewoldt is better so dont go crazy hawks ).

He's had an interrupted year and Wayne carey would have done nothing with the horrible delivery into the Saints forward line on the weekend. He single handedly got them to a grand final last year, was awesome through the finals series

I agree with this

Nick's pretty much stopped playing for frees recently so I'm happier about him being considered a champion
