I reckon he could be as good or better then Judd!

Your Thoughts?
 
I am generally fairly reserved in my assessments and I like keep a bit of a lid on it, so I'll keep it fairly short.

Personally I liken his style to being a cross between Daniel Kerr and Nick Dal Santo, only he's infinitely superior to both players in every respect.

He will win the rising star quite easily.
The people in Ireland call him one of the greatest ever and say he could of played soccer, Manchester United were apparently chasing him down but he stuck to the Gaelic game he grew up with.

what the **** are you guys talking about? Dunno how you can compare some kid that cant even kick a footy yet to the best mid in the league
He can kick a footy all right!

Think of like a right footed version of Luke Hodge in terms of accuracy, only with the distance of Be Graham.
 
No wonder we cop so much crap from everyone!
Chris Judd or better? CHRIS JUDD OR BETTER???? Are you retarted or what?
He hasn't even played the game yet, Jesus F Christ! Even if he is gonna be a great player, you're comparing him to Chris F**ing Judd!!!
This is why everyone loves giving us ****. We think our whole list is superior to everyone elses...

Collingwood made a pitch to him that in 2 years he will get a massive contract. He wants to make a go of becoming an AFL legend.

Let me get this right...
Man Utd couldnt offer him what he wanted...so along comes Eddie and provides him with what Man Utd could't?
Pls tell me that's NOT what you're saying.

Read what I said. Man Utd couldn't get him to play soccer this would've been at the age of like 14.

Yep, I agree.

I reckon that anyone who uses Judd as a benchmark to the bloke who will be the greatest footballer of all time is "******ed".

Clarke is already better than Judd. By a serious margin!

Oh God....
 
my sources inside the club say he will easily be better than judd. they also tell me he is quicker than davey around the ground, tougher than pickett and stronger in the marking contests than the bigger players like j.brown and barry hall. they have also alluded to him being handed the captaincy in 2008. they are also very happy with the odds they are currently getting for him through private bookmakers for the brownlow next year.

Yeh, he also wears a blue lycra costume, with red jocks on the outside and a big red cape at night, flying around fighting crime.
Apparently he's faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive and able to leap tall buildings in single bound!!!
Seriously guys, let the kid play a few games before writing stuff like this please!

Clarke > Van Berlo
Hey, hey, ease up there.

I mean, saying that God would struggle to get a kick with Clarke on the field is one thing, but better than Van Berlo.

Let's just say Clarke = Van Berlo in terms of omnipotent, omnipresent brilliance.

exactly, we don't want to go and put undue pressure on the kid by comparing him to van berlo, let alone saying he is better. i mean for gods (clarkes) sake, the kid hasnt even played a game, give him a chance! Isn't all the above qualities listed enough for some?
