Redo the 2009 draft.

[The full package]

but you think Fyfe is the better player though

No not really, I haven't followed Fyfe as closely as Dusty but what I do know is Fyfe seems seems a little fragile.

I think going off the 2012 season alone Fyfe would win as Dusty in my opinion had a little 3rd blues. But going off the 3 years they have contributed to their respective clubs I would pick Dusty. Fyfe I believe is having his break out year but lets see how well he backs it up next year before we start comparing.

Fyfe has 49 games for 33 goals to his name while Dusty has 63 for 67 goals. That alone tells me they are two different players.

Maybe that is what Melksham needed was a run in the two's. I saw a good post on your board to drop him for the last game against the Pies to get the fire in the belly to work hard in the off season. Goldy, Belly and Cunners are all good examples of what a stint in the two's can do for form and confidence. It still has a stigma attached to it but if you get a positive response it is well worth it.

People were calling for Melksham to get dropped for about the last two months. It was getting deafening towards the end.
He never got dropped, but he was the sub towards the end.

Are you saying I cant have a general opinion on a player from a far. It's like saying north are crap. I don't follow them but I can see they are crap.

You can have an opinion but it's just wrong. Even casual football observers know that Fyfe had his breakout year in 2011.

Either way, lets see how he goes in 2013. Going to be a long summer for norf.....already nitpicking.

And the first 6 games with only one A grade player will hurt now that Boomer is out.

Nitpicking? You're entering into a debate about two players and you clearly don't know one of them from a bar of soap.

What has this thread got to do with North? Oh that's right, the consensus is that Martin isn't the best player in the draft so you feel the need to deflect.

 

[Kaiser Powser]

Fyfe is better than Martin Tiges, no amount of hissy fits or Dusty style fend offs is going to change that.

 

[Bazzar]

And here i was thinking Cunnington and Bastinac were from that `09 draft.

And here i was thinking Cunnington and Bastinac were from that `09 draft.

But we weren't talking about them, were we. We were talking about Martin and Fyfe and how your friend clearly didn't have a clue who Fyfe is.

 

[Bazzar]

Fyfe is better than Martin Tiges, no amount of hissy fits or Dusty style fend offs is going to change that.

And they are both 10 times better than Melksham and Carlisle

 

[Daz]

Yay, more deflecting. Just be quiet now.

Sorry didnt see the OP title "Redo the 2009 draft - Fyfe v Martin Only"

 

[bombermick]

Haven't you disappeared with your tail between your legs yet, Bazzar?

Take your Bay 13 rubbish to where it belongs ...

Alright then mate, since we all agree on 1.Fyfe and 2.Martin, let's see your thoughts on the players you have ranked below those two.

Who said we agree on Fyfe v Martin? Not me. Different players that suit different needs of each club. Freo needs Fyfe, the Tiges need Martin. The way you and others are carrying on Fyfe is 10x better than Martin.

Whatever. Let's move on. Tell me a bit about the rest of the players.

9x lets not get carried away

Cotchins the best player in the comp does that make you happy?

 

[tigerT]

Fyfe is already a gun and will be elite. People talk about his breakout year last year and it was exceptional, but people also seem to forget Martin averaged 20odd possessions and kicked 35 goals, that's huge and IMO should have been close to AA considering he was one of the most destructive players in terms of impacting the scoreboard in 2011.

He has plateaued this season but in terms of shots on goals, he had just as many this season as last, if he kicked straight and topped 30 again we'd be probably saying how incredible a player he is.

Needs to buildup the engine

My opinion has aids

 

[One Eyed Tiger Lover]

I think Martin is better as he is more damaging. But lets be honest my opinion is probably biased. Freo should be congratulated on getting a star at pick 20.

We should all just laugh at how badly Melbourne stuffed up this draft. (Trust me all Tigers fans know what a stuffed up draft looks like)

Don't worry, even with Deledio, no club will ever be able to match the fail that was Richmonds 2004 National Draft.
