kruezer v cotchin

[Dazb86]

Who would you prefer and why?

 

[Dan]

Looking at the thread title I just assumed this thread was made 3-4 years ago....

No disrespect to Kruezer, but this is a piss take right?

 

[TigerBlood87]

Both hampered by injury early in their careers and that's really the only thing comparable about these two. I won't vote but if I had to choose? Cotchin, comfortably.

If Carlton had kept Sauce Jacobs and picked Cotchin instead of Kruezer. Rucks: Jacobs Judd Cotchin Murphy now that is terrifying.

 

[Monkey King]

Yes. Kreuzer did his knee and has struggled with recovery. And Cotchin had an awesome season last year. His first.

 

[Heisenberg_]

It was actually his second great season, not his first.

 

[Engimal]

Not even similar type players.
In saying that, Cotchin. But weird ****ing poll.

 

[Bazzar]

Yes. Kreuzer did his knee and has struggled with recovery. And Cotchin had an awesome season last year. His first.

First?

2011 a B&F, top 10 AFLCA, 15 Brownlow votes. Not bad for an average year.

I never said it was an average year? Where did you come up with that? I said last year was his first awesome year. And it was. He was awesome. Looked a million dollars.

 

[Dazb86]

Picks 1 and 2 in 2007. Not a troll thread.

 

[shinboner spiggs]

cotchin, because he is a far better player than kruezer will ever be, with or without injury.

 

[Groupie_]

Would blues fans trade us Kreuzer for Cotchin?

 

[Lets Roar like '44]

How the f has Kreuzer got 3 votes? Was expecting a full 100% verdict to Cotchin. Rigged.

 

[Gone Critical]

Cotchin looks like he will become an elite midfielder with many years of A grade performance.

Kruezer is brave and talented but undersized for a dominant ruckman and without great athleticism to make up for the lack of size. He will end up as a solid citizen player but I doubt ever be A grade.

It was a fair pick by Carlton, no one can predict the future so not all no 1's become guns. Richmond appear to have easily got the better of this one though.

Cotchin definitely takes the chips, but I think Kreuzer can be an A grader for sure if he recover finally from all the knee complications he's has. Was certainly tracking that way before going down with the ACL.

Not sure why you say he doesn't have great athleticism though. Has great agility for a 200cm player, as good on the ground and below his knees as you'll see from someone his size and has a genuinely massive motor. Perhaps you just meant to say he doesn't have a great leap, which I'd agree with this. Can you clarify?

But when you did that () it implied he came off an average year.

You inferred ... I never implied. Sometimes it's just best to read statements for what they are.

I voted Kruezer because the crowd sound better whenever he turns it on. You've got that deep "KRRRUUUUUEZE" noise vs "Cotch!", which sounds like Eton boys at the cricket.

Shame you only get to hear it once a year.

What where all these good games that showed he was tracking so well? He's never shown he would be a top 3 ruck, a poor mans Mumford

 

[De Iulio2Wiggins]

Nope, it's pretty much every time he touches the ball, but I understand why you've got your fingers in your ears for 98% of the Tigers vs Blues matches.

That was just my way of summarizing my thoughts that starting another thread on this combo, at this point in time, was overtly, well ... derp

But point taken. Sometimes emoticons aren't obvious to everyone.

Not sure if there's any point trying to seriously discuss it with you; and I'm not sure where "top 3" came from, but there were a number of genuine footy watchers who rated him in the top 5 rucks the season he went down with an ACL ... as a 21yo. And I agreed with them. To me, that's definitely tracking well to become an A grader.

"KRRRUUUUUEZE"

Equally as cringe-worthy as "Coooooon" and "Toooooooove". All sounds too similar to booing.
