Rockliff, Beams, Redden VS Dangerfield, Sloane, Thompson

[Bert Man]

Straight forward poll. Which trio would you prefer as your on ball unit?

 

[scaryness]

Dangerfield < Beams
Sloane > Redden
Thompson < Rockliff

 

[Mitchell54]

Brisbanes Trio

 

[Mitchell54]

Brisbane is gonna have a scary midfield this year with

C: Redden Beams Zorko
Foll: Leunburger Rockliff Rich

The rest of Mids:

Christensen
Aish
Mayes
Hanley
Adcock
Taylor
Robinson
Martin

That is one deadly midfield attack! They have excellent mid depth now.

Martin

 

[TheRoo32]

I would have Brad Crouch ahead of Scott Thompson just in regards to our midfield hierachy.

Biased but have to go with Adelaides

 

[Mitchell54]

Martin

Yeah, I will add him too. already heaps of capable players. Be interested to see how that midfield goes.

Brisbane still have a poor Forward & Defence.
They will target KPP's in years to come in the Free Agency and Trade period as well as the draft.

 

[Mitchell54]

Seems like Brisbanes trio is better according to the poll results

Yeah with the huge sample size of 6 neutral votes.

 

[Bailey01]

Hard to say when Brisbanes trio haven't even played together yet. Tbh I would include Brad Crouch instead of Thompson and you'll see why at the end of next year.

 

[Bailey01]

Dangerfield < Beams
Sloane > Redden
Thompson < Rockliff

What is this based on? Dangers best is way better than Beams best.

 

[The Bomb]

Adelaide's trio win, atleast they have played together.

 

[Mitchell54]

Yeah with the huge sample size of 6 neutral votes.

Just saying it looks like it is gonna go Brisbanes way

 

[Mitchell54]

Yeah, i agree but Beams worst is better than Dangerfields worst.

 

[Bailey01]

Yeah, i agree but Beams worst is better than Dangerfields worst.

Yes I agree but how can you say Dangerfield < Beams?

 

[1990crow]

Yes I agree but how can you say Dangerfield < Beams?

Yeah look Beams is a very good player, probably elite, but not better than Dangerfield.

Jacobs > Martin
Dangerfield > Beams
Sloane > Redden
Rockliff > S.Thompson
Hanley = B.Smith
B.Crouch > Zorko
Rich > Douglas

Brisbanes depth drops away a little here. Mayes, Aish, Taylor are all still developing players. Adelaide on the other hand have van Berlo and Mackay (not great players but established).

Beams is without a doubt elite. I presume you rate Sloane as an elite player and Beams has him covered IMO.

You've clearly chosen to forget our other A-Graders such as Christensen and Zorko. Aish, Taylor, Mayes, Robertson and Lester are all coming through and looking quite promising. IMO Adelaide's depth doesn't come close to the same quality as Brisbane's.

If you bothered to read my post I did include Zorko. Christenson you're correct, I forgot him. But for the time being he's a good player, not great. Like VB. It's good to be a promising player, but the three you mentioned aren't at the level of Mackay quite yet. M.Crouch, Kerridge are just as good as Taylor, Mayes and Aish if we're including them.

Sorry my bad.

M.Crouch IMO is on the same level in terms of potential to Aish and Taylor, but not Mayes. He doesn't have as many runs on the board but I wouldn't worry about him getting there. Rising star in 2015 IMO, kid is very good. Kerridge on the other hand isn't at the same level as Aish, Taylor and Mayes. IMO he is closer to Lester and Bewick's level.

In terms of potential IMO Brisbane's midfield has a higher potential.

Back to the topic.

If you compare the players from best to worst Brisbane are comfortable winners.

Beams < Danger
Rockliff > Sloane
Redden > Thompson

Redden is quite underrated around here. He quietly goes about his business and gets his 25-30 touches a game and accumulates 5-10 tackles. Very good inside mid.

 

[TheHoneyBadger]

I'd take Beams ahead of Dangerfield, but right at the minute I'd take the Adelaide trio ahead of the Brisbane trio.

Brad Crouch is immensely talented, you could swap him in and Thompson out and Adelaide look better going forward.

 

[Mitchell54]

Yes I agree but how can you say Dangerfield < Beams?

Can't really say. Don't know enough about each player to state a fair comment

 

[Wargreymon90]

It's pretty arbitrary when comparing only 3 mids from each midfield group. Every team becomes comparable

Eg. Sydney and gws

Griffen>Jack
Kennedy>ward
Parker=trealor

I think the adelaide trio are better. But the talent in brisbanes entire midfield group is better

I'm confused. Are you talking about potential of Redden better than Thompson or are you going on what they've done the last couple of years? Thommo has been underrated a lot throughout his career.
