What does this actually mean? It is such an overused term and when you really think about it, you have told us nothing.

Basically, Bower has achieved more. He has played on the likes of Travis Cloke and Buddy Franklin and performed admirably. Kreuzer, on the other hand, is still very young and skinny and as a result has been unable to compete with the bigger bodies in the AFL to the same extent as Bower. When you consider Bower has had 3 seasons and Kreuzer 1, it's not that big a logical leap...

break them down to number of games and how they performed,

I used the word potential, because, despite what people think this is what Bower has at the moment, many here think he will be a future champ, just like Krooz, but he is certainly not as gifted as the big fella.

I'm just more realistic then most when it comes to Bower, people used to talk about Setanta in the same light.

I just think it's silly to even propose Kreuzer should be ahead of Bower at this stage. He is behind in terms of development, and by some margin as well.

fair enough, how high do you rate Gibbs then?
