Small forwards

[davey_magik]

Which pair would you take?

 

[cats2rise]

Jnr and Chapman. Each pair has their strength and weakness, but i think over all, the Geelong pair win out. Both players are very very consistant and can play midfield or forward and are dangerous.
Didak is great for collingwood, but as a team with Davis... not better than the Geelong pair as Davis is inconsistant.

Pickett allready has the runs on the board but doesnt realy fit the typical 'small forward' player type. Davey is a bit inconsistant and cannot play through the midfield. Yet. But when he can....

 

[Cerpin Taxt]

Davey-Pickett for West Coast. If our midfield were weaker, Chapman-Ablett.

 

[melbournemartin]

Chapman and Ablett.

Ablett has the best allround skills, even though Davey's can be better when on song but he also doesn't have great consistancy does Davey.

Chapman is a tireless worker with great skills too and is very strong and can play up in the middle, as can Ablett.

Pickett is obviously the strongest and can burst through packs whiule the others rely on evasion.

Overall I chose Chapman and Ablett because they are arguably the 2 best small forwards in the comp. Davey will be there once he gets consistancy and Pickett is great in a variety of roles. I do believe that, defensively, Pickett and Davey combo is the best but attackingly, Chapman and Ablett is better and that's what you want most in small forwards.

oh and yeh didak and davis...yeh forgot about them...meh

Chapman and Ablett closely followed by the Dees pair.

 

[Jumpin' Jimmy]

Milne dog/Nafin Brown

 

[cats2rise]

They play for different teams.... One of them plays for your team, one of them does not.

 

[Jimi]

How bout Davey/Yze?

Anyhow, Chapman and Ablett at this stage.

I'd rather they both played with my team

 

[m.diddy]

Milney does the job for two small forwards, i'd take him.

Although out of those 3 it would chapman/ablett as they get more of the ball whilst doing the tackling and kicking the goals.

Milne is a superb crumber but has a terrible finals record and is very suspect when the heat is on. Although I'll give him one thing he is a very accurate kick whether snapping or a set shot.

[brooksy108]

Just throwing one up dunno if its been mentioned...Robbins and Johnson for Doggies...pretty good all round small forwards both kickin goals and preasure on then teams try and take it out....

 

[tomthetiger]

Chapman/Ablett and Pettifer/Brown.

Didak/Davis a clear last

[Coin_Toss]

My top 5 would be...

5. Fremantle - Medhurst/Farmer

Surely you jest. Didak/Davis are substantially better than Medhurst/Farmer.

Goal Tally 2006

Ablett/Chapman: 53 goals
Didak/Davis: 50 goals
Davey/Yze: 41 goals (Pickett doesn't feature in Top 100)
Pettifer/Krakouer: 35 goals (Brown doesn't feature in Top 100)

 

[Ari]

Chapman/Ablett in a close one.

 

[Ricketts]

Chapman and Ablett can do anything. They're that good.
