Well it's really up to you mate.
It's just personal preferance.
some people find them constricting making them not as mobile and comfy on a field.
other people worship them because of those evil neck shots you can receive from a good 'ol bunkering.
i can depend on what and where you play on a field.
as a back-man i don't wear one because of a variety of reasons.
1) i get very hot and steamed up.
2) i cant communicate as well
3) i don't tend to get bunkered alot at the back.
i think if you were playing nearer the front of the field looking into a neckguard is a good idea.
but as i said it's all personal preferance.
Pick up a cheap rhino one or something and try it for a couple of games.
there's no harm in trying.
hope you find your awnser.

They do take the sting out of being hit it the neck, but the neoprene ones look like something a goth would wear
