Travis Cloke vs Lance Franklin (Take 2)

[Zeke]

Anyone care to update their preference yet?

I think if you can all find it within your hearts to be honest and objective (just this once) then we will see a very different poll outcome.

Be honest, you'll feel better for it. It's quite liberating.

I cant believe you would even compare Cloke with that dud Franklin. Franklin isnt even worthy off being mentioned in the same breath as Ben Holland yet never mind Travis Cloke.

Franklin is by far is the most terrible top 5 pick in AFL history, im sure Perth Demons will have themselves a handy recruit in five years time because thats the only place Franklin will be displaying his so called 'talent'.

Travis Cloke.

Travis Cloke.

Both very good, but I am a Collingwood Supporter.

So far in there debut season, Travis Cloke has been better, by a fingernail. He has had to fill the void left by Rocca, and has helped Pies to success playing there. Has been good for the team.

Lance Franklin will be better overall you would suspect. He has had an inconsistant start to the year, and does give away alot of free kicks, but I am not takig anything away from him, just justifying why.

Good, accurate post.

So far Cloke has been considerably better than Franklin. He is physically developed and has taken to league footy like a duck to water. Clean hands, good at ground level and a booming kick - he'll make coughing up third round picks for his two dud brothers worthwhile. There is a bit of Warran Tredrea about him. Big call, but I reckon he's going to be a star.

Franklin is as raw as you can get. Still has alot of filling out to do and even more to learn about the game. Thinks he's invinsible but that type of arrogance can be a very good thing once he becomes accustomed to the big league. Kicks like a mule, moves like a gazelle and is as good below his knees as any 196cm bloke i've seen. Could be anything, but will never be boring - an aboriginal Richo with good coaching, perhaps.

From performance up to now you'd be stupid to say Franklin.Who knows who will be better but up to now it has to be T Cloke.

 

[Cyclops]

Franklin could develop into anything, he seems to have more upside as they say. Travis has a great footy brain-his skills can improve, he's pretty gifted physically but his judgement is already at senior standard. Right now he's the better player.

Anyway Rusling will be better than both of them.

Franklin >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Any young player in the league.

Cloke will win this popularity contest though, too many Pies fans on Shyte footy

You're clearly one chromosone missing from a normally developed human

 

[celtic_pride]

I'm still happy to pick Franklin over Cloke.

Amount of Collingwood fans < Amount of people who hate Collingwood blindly and will vote against anything related to Collingwood.

Nathan Buckley vs. Clive Waterhouse would probably swing Clydes way on these boards...

At this point in time Cloke, in the not so distant future Buddy without a doubt.

 

[West Coast Fan 123]

Buddy is a better footballer. Even though Cloke gets down low and has decent groundwork, he often looks unbalanced and clumsy. I dont know, I just think Buddy has more athletic capablities and a far greater scope for improvement.

Franklin still leading comfortably. How about you try 'take 3'?
