    I see where you're going, and yes, I agree that Schneider will eventually become a better in-and-under midfielder than J Bolton.

    Unfortunately, we're not likely to see much of Schneider in that role this year (given a c.6 week injury + reserves for fitness + weeks to regain form in forward pocket, etc).

        Scheider.

        Esp. after Saturdays performance. It was the first time I have seen him play in the centre of the ground and actually run the ball out with his speed rather than a quick kick, alas it was his running speed that brought his downfall. Till that point he set the game on edge, with the chance we may get over the line.

        A very exciting midfielder/crumbing forward. He gets the crowd excited.

          Had me out of my seat with that behind that he kicked. He ran so far and must have been knackered by the time he got there to line the kick up. Was a real shame.

          I reckon Jude is fine so why are we actually in this debate at the moment?

          Geesh, a few losses and the weirest threads get started.

            Here here!!!!

            How can you even compare them? They play different styles and different positions!

            Not going to even bother to vote on this.

              I had thoughts of goal of the year flashing through my head as he hurtled towards the 50, then realised the most important ingrediant was for him to actually kick it. I crossed my fingers, held my hands together in prayer and said, "just kick it Adam, just kick it through" D'OH!!!

                yep, I think the little legs had nothing in them after that run and he was just going too fast to kick straight anyway...

                exciting stuff though! And I love how he bounces the ball, really hammers it down with his right hand...

                I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
                We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                  I don't see much point in this comparison at the moment, but I still think Schneider's missed goal with 3 min to go in Q1 was a major turning point in the game. We were solidly in control at that stage and that would have put us 3 goals in front just as the rain started. Instead, Essendon took the ball the length of the field kicked a goal and then seemed to become inspired and kicked two more.

                  After all the hard work to get to the spot he was, it was a very easy shot - open 40m out directly in front. He missed a few of those running goals last year too. If he can't make them he should dish off.

                    I think he actually tripped on the 50m line

                    I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

                    If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

                      Far from it, he did everything right slowed and steadied the last few steps, really looked like he was going to nail it.

                      As opposed to Goodesy who you can usually tell prior to the ball hitting the boot when he is going to miss!!

                        What a fascinating thread. Just as I often lie awake at night wondering which of the Barrys is the best - Leo or Hall? In the finer points of the game - Goodes or Crouch? Paul Williams or Jason Ball? The permutations are endless.

                          That's why it was so frustrating - he actually did take a steadying step, but he still missed. Very disappointing and costly.

                            Wrong , if we are comparing a pair of players, there are only about 780 possibilities from a playing list of 40 players, hardly endless in my book.
