McDonald V KK thread and poll

underdog11 · February 21, 2014, 10:32:55 AM

I can't decide. Keen to hear opinions on whose better why and predicted average of each.

I would pick McDonald he will play more and be more consistent. K Kol will put up some good scores but may be a hit and miss

McDonald for me, but that's based on KKolo's non-selection in NAB1
and McDonald's looked pretty decent

KK is injured

McDonald, he's cheaper and he's already played a year in the VFL.

He was supposed to play against Brisbane but wasn't named, so i think his 'slight' injury is a little worse then they think.

I'd be surprised if Mcdonald didn't play Rd 1

Yeah McDonald has pretty good JS, Scott likes him. As has been pointed out he has been playing VFL last year and we have seen in the past the guys that have played against older bigger bodies score better once they start playing AFL, as is the case with Jaegar. The same argument applies for the mature recruits, such as Fuller.

McDonald would be just ahead at this stage but I'm not convinced either have great JS

the AFL site has KKolo listed with a hamstring injury and test (for rd1 presumably, Jelwood's listed test too)

*remembers Gibbs last year* he could be given a while, I'd look elsewhere to start with

I have McDonald at the moment yes

Jukes · February 21, 2014, 03:08:33 PM

I voted McDonald as I think his JS and scoring potential are both slightly higher, but if you have two spots for rookies to fill on the ground I'd lock both of them in. Both future stars imo

I thought KK was going to be playing in the 2nd NAB cup game?
