Tarrant vs Jenkins

[DangerSloane]

Who would you prefer. Both young guys who have been a bit slow getting going. Both have impressed at stages this year.

I might be biased but Jenkins ability to ruck tips it slightly in his favour.

Jenkins will probably win the poll because he's coming off an impressive performance and Tarrant's in the middle of a lengthy layoff.

Coming along very nicely is Robbie. Has everything you'd want in a key forward except contested marking atm. Given his build, you'd expect that to click eventually like it did with someone like Hawkins.

Jenkins has a lot of weapons. Impressive lad.

This is the thing that had got me sold on him.

Hes deceptively quick, he has very good hands, has a booming kick, hes also very strong. His set shots were good last year but seem to have dropped off a bit this year. Must be that number 4 jumper. If he improves his set shot kicking and starts to use his strength a bit more hes going to be a mighty handy footballer who will cause matchup headaches.

Another one of those polls I'll have to revisit in 3 years.

 

[eth-dog]

Jenkins right now.

Jenkins ability as a ruck is what sets them apart

 

[Bigeasy]

Jenkins vs Daw maybe?

Might be a better comparison I guess. Daw has the athleticism but Jenkins reads the game better.

Yeah well that's not saying much.

You're right it isnt. Too early to see what Daw has to offer long term.
He could be huge or he could peter out if his game is one-dimensional.
Time will tell.

Haven't seen a great deal from Jenkins.

Jenkins comfortably.

Huh?

Despite that fact I have hardly seen Jenkins play, I rate Tarrant that lowly that I would still choose Jerker over Tazz.

Oh right, thought u were being sarcastic or something.
Give him time Tarrant, he has had a number of injuries, but theres probably a reason to choose Jenkins.

Forgetting Jenkins for a moment, I just don't see it with Tarrant. Petrie, Daw and Black is the way to go for North over the next 2 years IMO.

I haven't seen much of Black, but I was very impressed with his performance during the Eagles game.

Disagree I think Tarrant is very capable and when he's clunking marks he'll be a fantastic forward. 69 shoulder reco might have held that back slightly. Honestly haven't seen enough of Jenkins to vote but he def shows something.

Yeah this guy has the package. Great hands, great set shot, great vision, great endurance for a 192 forward. Just need to hit the packs harder and start clunking them.

I hope you are right. I just don't think he'll ever "clunk" them.
