Kreuzer vs Leunberger Part 2

[murph#3]

now before i get hounded for making a poll that already exists, let me just explain that i believe a lot of people's opinions would have changed on these 2 players at the halfway mark of the season. many people wrote off kreuzer before he played a single game only because he reminded them of fraser. i'd like to find out your honest opinions on who the better player from the 2 is. i've got no doubt the 2 will both be superstars of the comp and along with natanui will have some super duels over the next 15 years, but who do you honestly think will be better?

 

[smiddaz123]

Luenberger still.

Both players will have ups and downs in their junior years. This poll has been conveniently posted just after Kreuzer had a good game and Leuenberger has been rested.

He's a good player, and I tipped him as a CHF early in the piece. leuenberger KILLS him as a ruckman.

 

[Palmer Stoat]

I'd still go Leuenberger. Kreuzer's a talent, though, no doubt.

I suppose we're gonna revisit this argument each time one of them plays a good game...

 

[jonesy86]

Let's be honest, a rising star nomination doesn't mean a lot.

Looking forward to seeing which of these two has the biggest impact for their side tonight, which may also see this comparison put to rest.

Lets hope they get to play a bit against one another - although I see Carlton using Kreuzer a fair bit down forward a bit in an attempt to stretch our backline.

Spot on

Kreuzer will be CHF and Leuenberger will be the better ruckman.
It's just the way it will be.

First time I saw Leu play, I mistook him for a ruck-rover, he's that agile. He looks like a better ruckman than Kreuzer and is bigger bodied.

Leuenberger for mine.

After seeing them matchup tonight, Kreuzer is & will be a far better player.

Kreuzer is a freak.

kreuze is 5 times the player at the moment but still early days

 

[SunKing]

Leuenberger for me the guys an absolute machine and a once in a generation player + easily the best ruckman of the two. Kreuzer will be a very good player though

You're kidding me, Leuenberger does nothing when the ball hits the deck.

How so? Rucking against a rookie and someone who he's supposedly better then he managed to dominate with 6 possessions, 1 mark and a lousy 3 hitouts to advantage. Add that to his less then double figure possession count average last year. The signs are not promising.

It's going to take some quick developing for him to turn into this "once in a generation player."

Dont know what you were watching last night mate, but clearly a different gae than me. Kreuzer beat him in every aspect, yet is a year younger. Luey looks a player (hardly once in a gen player), but Kreuzer looks to have him covered.

 

[james Dean]

The hype over Leunberger is laughable.. Yet to show that he is a freak (once in a gen player) he looks to me like being a good tap ruckman nothing else

LOL the benefit of hindsight has proven just how wrong you are
