Why start a poll asking people to compare an Essendon player with a player from another club? If you asked who is better, Hird or Rhys Shaw most supporters of other clubs would vote Shaw purely because they are blinded by their hate.
Yeah, god forbid that Sherman may actually be the better player.

:eek:

Pretty different players.

Sherman is a gun and is exciting to watch. Could become a brilliant midfielder, but atm seems to play as a forward.

Stanton is very important to Essendon, he has a huge motor and runs all day, he racks up the stats and uses it effectively.

If I was impartial I would say Sherman, but as an Essendon fan, I just feel that Stanton brings so much to our midfield and we could not afford to lose him.

Bit undecided about Sherrmin. He could turn out to be a dud Moloney-type, but will hopefully be better. Stanton is nothing special - lacks leg speed, always getting caught, and just hasn't got the skills to hurt an opposition. Always looks half frightened for some reason. :)

Sherman is the better player, and will be the better player
Sherman with ease
Stants
2006 22 games 485 possesions 12 goals
2005 19 games 352 possesions 13 goals

Sherman
19 games 13 goals

Stants has 2 top 4 B&F finishes. There is no comparison. Sherman might be a good player. Stanton already is a quality mid fielder.

Why are Hawks supporters still jealous of Essendon ?

My apologies on the stats ...I went to the essendon website for Stantons stats and the Brisbane(via the AFL website) for Sherman. I don't care how accurate the AFL site is I know the Essendon one is accurate and Stanton has a 2nd B&F and 4th B&F. Sherman is not in the same post code as a player at this stage. Stanton is well on his way to being an elite mid fielder (who does attract a tag on a weekly basis)

No point argueing, most neutral supporters will vote for Sherman and all Brisbane supporters will vote for Sherman. He is a more appealing player to watch but players like Stanton are worth just as much to our side.

There even in my eyes.

Pretty good question.

I, being a Bomber, would have Stanton in an instance, as I see his value week in week out, and would pick him way way before Sherman.

But I could understand why neutral people would go for Sherman though. He is a top player and very exciting, but not as consistent in my opinion.

Both great players, easily in the top 5 of their age brackets.
