Andrew McLeod and Shane Crawford

Question

Both are playing their 300th game this weekend. who do you reckon is the better player?

Shane Crawford is a brownlow medalist, a 3 time All-Australian, 4 times the clubs Best and Fairest, and a former Captain of the Hawthorn footy club.

Andrew McLeod is a 2 time Premiership player, back to back Norm Smith Medalist, 3 Time best and fairest and 5 time All Australian including being the captain once.

They're both South Australians, except because im a crows fan my answer may be a little bit biased

who d'ya reckons betta when they're BOTH at their best?

Answer 1

From what I've seen of them, Andrew McLeod stands out as better value. But I have not noticed that closely.

Answer 2

I'm going to say andrew mcleod. he is good looking and he is the best player out there i reckon. He always seems to come up with the goods when the team is down

Answer 3

At their best, Crawford. His best only lasted 1 or 2 seasons but in 1999 the year he won the Brownlow he was a superstar, and again in 2003 when he nearly won it again. Oh yeah im biased too.  

Answer 4

Crawford's best was exceptional in his Brownlow year, having said that though his best didn't last very long. In my opinion McLeod has been more consistent over the course of his career.  

Answer 5

I think I would say McLoud, but I am not saying that Crawford isn't a fantastic player. They are both fairly even in my eyes, and I'm not biased.

Answer 6

thts a tough one, both great players n r pretty even in my eyes.

wouldnt it be gd to see the ball run away from them two!!

mcleod has more pace n is much more excitin, gd wen he kicks a goal on the run!!

crawford is just a gd all-rounder

so, crawford is more consistent and mcleod pops up n shows magic every now n then but wen he has a gd game he'll be a major part of the game

i would hav to say mcleod to be the better of the two

Answer 7

andy mcleod for sure. as i am a member i will go to his 300th game and i will enjoy a win. andrew mcleod has more speed and skill  and andy has also been the all australian captain in 2007, his knee surgery put him back but for sure andrew mcleod

Answer 8

i'm a hawks fan but I think Mcleod,he is far more consistent and better behaved crawf has spent to much time at tribunal

Answer 9

Andrew McLeod without a doubt he always produces the goods when the chips are down that's why he has two Norm Smith medals and the only reason he doesn't have a Brownlow is he had a lot more competition from his team mates.
