Slater Cronk Smith

[Budgie]

Of the big three, who would they miss the most if out of the team? I know we were brilliant in the 40-0 game, but I somehow doubt it would have been so massive had Smith played. So my guess is Smith.
Thoughts?

Smith by a long way. Losing any of them is a big loss but Smith is very underrated in that team.

 

[MWSE]

Smith hands down. Then Cronk. Then Slater a distant third.

 

[bob dylan]

Schmidt
Crunt
Slagger

About Schmidt, Bob....

 

[Volley]

Smith for sure. But Cronk is closing the gap. He's the best number 7 in the game now pretty comfortably.

 

[Clint]

I'm going for Cronk. Cause the other two are grubs. And besides I think they can cover the loss of Smith more than the loss of Cronk.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Definitely smith. He is storms brain.

Cronk is good, but he does struggle a bit when smith is missing.

About Schmidt, Bob....

Jack was great, wasn't he.

It's just a three ringed circus,billy and 2 other a**eh***s

Smith.
If you take out Cronk, Smith or Finch plays halfback.
If you take out Slater, Widdop plays fullback with Finch at 5/8.

It's like asking us, who would we miss most?
Snake, Killer or DCE?

I think the stats would say Snake.

Kind of depends who they're playing in a way.

...Coincidently, I watched the 2008 GF today. Was that the last game Aitken played ?

For the record, Smith would be messed most in my opinion. Cronk a close second.

 

[Lord Eagleton]

Cronk.
We have a better than normal chance of beating them if their crafty playmaker isnt there. Widdop isnt the same without Cronk there.
Of course Smith is a gun hooker, but Ballin can go toe to toe with him...till you add in Smiths kicking game..still, i think the are more beatable when Cronk is out.

I think smith because the forwards lose their brain, and their effectiveness.

It don't matter so much how good your half of fb is in that case against a good team.

 

[Lord Eagleton]

I think smith because the forwards lose their brain, and their effectiveness.

Good point. Still finding it difficult to split Cronk & Smith though

 

[Hamster Huey]

Smith hands down. Then Cronk. Then Slater a distant third.

This. I'd put 'Daylight' second before Cronk.









And no, not Matt Daylight for those inclinded to go there.

 

[mickqld]

I'd poison all 3 of the pricks , not to kill them just to make them ill. Kind of like the South Africans did to the All Blacks before the rugby world cup.

 

[bones]

Sloth then Crater then Smink

Is Smith underrated? Isn't he the Australian captain?
