    You're delusional.
    Bratten is a better player than zad.

    I didn't want to ad to the click bait, but was I the only one who figured the thread "True Religion Hats" was going to be about the Jets-Shaped peak as part of the membership pack?

    So disappointed lol

    I love Zads and want him back at the club, but if it came down to a choice between him and Bratten, I'd take Bratten. People point out he's scored 4 goals in his A-League career - well that's 1 more than Kanta, Pepper and Caravella scored for the Jets in their careers combined!

    Ideally you'd have both in midfield.

    Zad has a better defensive workrate, but Bratten has a superior passing range and positioning. IMO they'd complement each other - Zad as a 6 and Bratten as an 8.

    Bratten is a superior footballer though, and Zad a superior athlete.

    And Messi is a better player than Galekovic but if I was going to make the claim that one of them was "amazing at stopping goals", I wouldn't falsely make it about Messi, would I? The point was that "Brattan scores long range screamers" which is a complete fallacy.

    I suppose these aren't long range bombs.

    I did not claim anything. Merely stateing the obvious

    Aye, I know... but RAM is saying Brattan "scores long range screamers" and his evidence is 3 videos... that shows 75% of the goals he has ever scored. He's claiming something that is blatantly not true or at least happens so rarely that it can't be something that he is known for.

    I'm not taking sides, as I would gladly have Rubes back AND Brattan to Newy..
    But I'll just leave this here..

    so you admit that he "scores long range screamers"

    thanks for admitting when you're wrong

    I think Grim is a bit confused about the point.

    He's confusing a scorer of great goals with a great goal scorer.

    Quality over quantity.

    So... Zad scores long range screamers as well.

    Better sign him up.
