Andrew Krakouer vs. Dion Prestia??

Prestia: May be 1 too many GC players if I take him, but I've heard his body is AFL-ready, he should get games as a dangerous goalsneak who can rotate through the midfield...

OR

Krakouer: Never consistently scored well when he was at Richmond - was that because Richmond/the players around him there were not very good or was it all down to him not being up to AFL level? Now with the reigning premiers (& flag favourites for this year), a. will he get games?, b. how well will he score? - easy to look at 200+ points, but that was the WAFL, not the AFL...

So the big question is: Krakouer vs. Prestia? Who is the better 7th forward???

def prestia. Krak will find it hard to push through a well balanced team. Only LTI or an injury will give him the chance. As far as I know, I haven't heard any major injuries from the maggies

Prestia for me.
I think he will go well and I just haven't seen enough from Krak, I'm not even sure if he can crack it at AFL level let alone get a run every week for the reigning premiers and flag favourite.

Saves a bit of cash as well :)

Im taking prestia.

Cheaper, and will perform more consistantly than Krakouer

Thanks guys - I was thinking along the lines of Prestia too. Glad to hear others agree. I had Krak in my team for ages, then started thinking that $200,000 was just too much for a player with question marks over job security and points output.

yep, but only cos I'm considering Matera from GC as well as he's cheaper than Prestia - but also changing my mind every other minute ... :P

Get them both ;) If u have to choose one though I'd probably say Prestia but not by much especially after the pies intra-club match today.

roo boys! · February 04, 2011, 06:47:28 PM

I've got Prestia in my mids and Krak in the forwards.

antman · February 04, 2011, 08:04:40 PM
