\n\n\nOVER the last week, Draft Central<\/em>\u00a0launched its brand new series of pocket podcasts, a collection of short-form discussions which narrow in on a range of topics heading into the 2020 AFL Draft. In\u00a0the next edition<\/a>, Chief Editor\u00a0Peter Williams<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0again sat down with AFL Draft Editor\u00a0Michael Alvaro<\/strong><\/em> to compare arguably the two best key forward prospects in this year’s AFL Draft pool.\r\n\r\nThe players in question may well also be the best two overall prospects out of the class of 2020. They are of course Oakleigh Chargers’ Jamarra Ugle-Hagan<\/strong> and Perth’s Logan McDonald<\/strong>. Despite being robbed of a top-age season, Ugle-Hagan remains the consensus number one prospect this year, while McDonald catapulted himself into top five calculations with an incredible WAFL League campaign in which he led the goalkicking charts early on. Though they predominantly play similar roles, they do so in such different styles which makes a comparison between the two all the more interesting.\r\n\r\nTo listen to the discussion in full, click here<\/a><\/strong>.\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n
\n\n\n
\n\n\nThe discussion was led by pitting the pair head-to-head across a range of categories, which are listed below. A name in green denotes the player being deemed superior in that category, while orange denotes the opposite. That is not to say that either player is lacking in any of these areas, but is rather a method of conveying which one of these prospects is specifically better than the other in each department.\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n
