Not that I'm biased..;)

Bartel definitely! He can play in most positions, has great skills, is a great contested player and delivers week in week out.

Not that Cooney doesn't, but Bartel for me!

Not arguing Cooney is better but you have to laugh at the ignorance of some people.

He is labeled as inconsistent yet has got 20 plus possessions for 35 games in a row now :rolleyes:

He is a pea heart who played the 2008 finals series with a fractured knee cap and all of last last season with O.P :rolleyes:

He doesn't stand up when it matters but was in our top 3 players in last seasons finals series :rolleyes:

I assume this must be one of those joke threads? Right?

Because Bartel is streets ahead of pea heart Cooney.
haha the only pea-hearts are the Collingwood players that lined up last September. Pity Jack Anthony, the only one to show a bit of resolve and nerve is not even in your side.

How often does Jimmy get the oppostion's number 1 tagger as Coondog does every week? That proves how good the other 15 teams know he is.
Saying that the tagger proves Cooney is better than Jimmy is flawed IMO, it only proves that there is a better person in the team.

You can't blame Jimmy for having Ablett in his team.

If there was another player better than Cooney in the WB team, they would get the tagger.

But your point does reflect that its hard to compare two players, one which is tagged and one that isn't.

At their respective best i would take Cooney but Bartel delivers at a higher level more consistently. Although Cooney will always get no1 tag at bulldogs, whereas Ablett gets no1 at Geelong and theres other players that might even get no2 tag at Geelong eg Selwood. So i reckon if i had to choose one for my team i would go Cooney although the difference is miniscule, i just see him as more of a matchwinner whereas Bartel is more your top level consistent player.

Ahh, so you're one of those people.

Pray tell, who is it actually at Geelong that makes all the other passengers look good? According to posters like you, at least 15 of our regular 22 are made to look better because of the class surrounding them...but 14 of the blokes surrounding them are not much chop...:confused:...

We have a conundrum.
