I think the fact there is Championship clubs fishing sniffing around Brez more than suggests he is the better keeper.......Brez is the better keeper as he does something that many modern day keepers don't do and that's command his box when defending crosses. After Brez was injured I don't think it was a coincidence that we appeared much more prone to conceding from crosses.
The height thing may not sound rational but that does play a major part in how good a keeper is. Brez probably has an overall reach of about a foot more than Smith which could in itself mean 4 or 5 goals less conceded a season.

Then surely if Smith was the better keeper they'd be sniffing around him......anyway everyone seems to find it hard to seperate the two ability wise so it seems basic logic to me that the taller one must be better as he can reach further and has a bigger surface area with which to save the ball.

Let's drop the pretence of these 'Championship clubs' who are supposedly 'sniffing around' Brez. You've clearly fallen for his swarthy, Slavic good looks (not forgetting the ice blue eyes). It's man love. I'm cool with that, I'm sure most people on the forum are as well (well, maybe not Spacey, he's pretty homophobic to be honest with you) It's all good. Let it all out. You'll feel much better when you do

But Brez's smile is more commanding.

There's not alot in it for me. Both keepers fill me with confidence. Smithy has the shirt and that's fine. It's his to lose and if that happens we have an excellent keeper as back up. I think it's a fantastic situation that we have two fine keepers at the club. Smith may just edge it slightly. I expect his communication is better and I think Brez looks a bit vulnerable to anything low due to his size.

I don't really care, I just wish we'd sell one of then. Having two good keepers hurts my head.
