Given the choice of two types of players, which one would you rather have on your team.

Player 1 is bigger and stronger than most and is good with her head. She wins most of the 50-50 balls and battles for loose balls. She has a very strong leg and can hit the ball hard and fast. She also rarely connects on a pass and doesn't see the field very well. She gets a lot of shots off but often misses the net. She also doesn't think the game very well.

Player 2 is not very big but not small either. She shys away from contact and loses 50-50 balls more often than not. She has a good leg but not a booming leg. She also sees the field very well and thinks the game well. She seems to always find an open player to pass to and doesn't get many shots but when she does, she buries them.
