But what you fail to listen to, and it's been pointed out constantly....is that he's just finished his second year of AFL.Yeah it is simple, for someone as big as Franklin he does not do nearly enough in contested situations. The stats don't lie in this case.
What he has shown in his short time in the league has been exceptional.
Surely you can now see this?
And getting back to this constant argument you keep putting up about Franklin being compared to Tambling....have you really not grasped it yet?
Richmond passed on Franklin, and picked up Tambling. It's only logical that people will continue to say "you could've had blah blah blah, he has already done blah blah blah...the guy you got has done nothing".
Like I pointed out before in this thread it's Fiora/Pavlich(not saying Buddy is as good as Pav) all over again. The two will continue to be brought up in discussion thru the ages.
