Bloods ... not even a good example !!!
Would the "Bloods" culture and even committment bonding have arisen if "Gods SON" ...GA.. played his "win it off my own boot" style, glamour recruit....more media attention & blab than Davo?... and more jealousy !!!!
How much would that have taken out of the salary cap compared to Cortina (with a huge donk) LA? Could you see Roosey trying to explain to GA he doesn't want him to get a kick just run with Judd or Edwards or Crawford all day shut him down and get the hard ball and cause a stoppage?
GA is more stylish and skilled for sure....SO FAR.... but less of a team player.... 72 years!

I actually agree with Liz.Luke doesn't have the panache of young Gary.Players like him don't come along often.Nathan reminds me of a young foal still finding his feet.On the other hand,Luke is a damn good footballer who has only one obvious fault which is his disposals.They have let him down on occassions.At least with him you know he's going to give 100% and he always gets in there for the hard ball.He's not showy but a good old fashioned footballer.He'd be one of the first picked each week for the Swannies IMO.Comment

You said Jr has more footy smarts and skills than LA,so how does that make him a better player?LA has guts,determination,puts his body on the line for the team.Sure you need skill and smarts but you also need what LA's got which IMO doesnt mean he is a lesser player than Jr.Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

I am not going to start arguing that Luke is a better player than Gary, much as I like our Ablett.
But it isn't quite as straightforward as saying that just because a player has more skill and footy smarts than another, he is necessarily a better player.
Take Brett Kirk vs Nick Davis.
Or Paul Kelly vs Derek Kickett.
All useful players to have in your side but I know which of each pair I'd pick if I had to choose.Comment

Yes, of course application is important, but would anyone say Gary Ablett does not work hard at getting the football?Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.
