Who's the best player at the net?

Yes, i totally agree, Sigit is super sharp at the front. Only that sigit might be a little error prone.

For the "show" purpose, my vote goes to Sigit. For the "win", I prefer Tony and KDM.

Hendra Setiawan's netplay has indeed improved a lot in the past 1 year.

i'm a big fan of jens eriksen - especially his deception at the net.. and his height and reach mean he intercepts loads.. pretty good for a guy that is almost 40!

For speed and intimidation, Cai Yun
For skill and athleticism, Koo Kien Keat
For patience and finesse, Tony Gunawan
For sheer presence and reach, Jens Eriksen
For placement and alertness, Hendra Setiawan

For killer deception, style and "Wow! Wow! Wow!", Sigit Budiarto

Yeah, that's where the "wizard" kicks in.

If it's the best frontmen in MD ever, I would vote for Sigit.

If it's currently then it's kind of tough. However I would say the top 3 would be Cai Yun, Hendra Setiawan and Koo Ken Keat. All of them are very fast at the net and can enforce in the back as well.

These 6 front players are indeed the best ones. But personally i still think tony gunawan is the best among them. Reason being; him winning WC MD title with howard bach in 2005, especially playing against candra/sigit in the final.

Well said Nick....we are meeting in AE anyway see you there...hehehehe Ayo Indonesia!

**bh185008** · 02-12-2008, 06:59 PM

The best front players at all time

on my opinion)
- Christian Hadinata
- Sigit Budiarto
- Tony Gunawan
- Rexy Mainaky

**cooler** · 02-12-2008, 07:01 PM

Tony's nickname for frontman is VIPER...........in his heyday, he is the best one along with Sigit...

**taufikk** · 02-12-2008, 09:48 PM

In the past - Sigit
present - KKK

Agree. Sigit at his best is simply unbelievable. A combination of superb physique, superb anticipation, and superb technique/touch.

I have to say I like Setiawan's style most, seemingly effortless yet lightning fast and lethal.
