Redden or Rocky

[JKraz]

I had Rocky on for a lock, but today he was pretty substantially outscored redden, who didnt kick any goals, while rocky kicked three, got me thinking...who do you think will be the premier DT mid from the Lions this year?

[Mr.Craig]

Rocky was in the 20's for ages yesterday and then he just exploded, couldn't believe the score he ended up with. Whether it's true or not I see Redden more as an accumulator, not that it's a bad thing. Both great picks but I have gone with Rocky. Below is their comparative DT scores, starting with Round 1 at the bottom. Taking away the 2 games Rockliff missed he ourscored Redden 11/20 times and as you can see there were a number of occasions when one outscored the other by a considerable distance.

Cant pay a lot of attention to NAB apart from rookies you never know which players have been told to take it easy or are just doing that anyway remember it's like week 3 out of like 30 in the players minds

[JKraz]

nice breakdown Mr. Craig....What I would take away from that though is that is almost impossible to split them

[Slap]

seems like Rockliff had the edge over redden.  Even when redden scored higher, rockliff wasn't that far behind.

But that is fine picking between two great and upcoming players.  I do love the way the redden accumulates tackles, being one of the few players that have few touches, heaps of tackles and a great score.

[Big_Cox14]

Hard to split between the two. But Rocky has the edge only just IMO.

[Kuruki]

Check Rockliffs on field percentage before you make any major decisions.

[Windigo]

I bet a few hours before the game no one gave Redden a chance.

People are heavily influenced by one NAB game.  :P

Rockliff is more damaging with the goals he can kick.

[miffysp]

His is a dilemma that is doing my head in also.
I'm looking at them as a SC perspective.
Has anyone got any TOG% of the game yesterday?

[underdog11]

I am a Redden man. He has more to improve  then rockliff and once he estlabishes himself as a gun midfielder his numbers will go through the roof, dont have either though  :P

[elephants]

When Redden finds more pill he will be an elite... I would go Rocky though.
