AFL Player 27: Mason Redman 🐕 - Goes whack

[Lore]

Contract Status: Free Agent 2028
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 24, ghostdog

As good as I thought he'd become that trust you have in really good players isn't there. It took about 12 months for the sheen to rub of Hurley, for example.

I reckon if Redman had played that game last year I'd be pretty thrilled with but it tonight it felt like an out of form batsman scratching his way to 70.

It was his best game of the year. Last quarter was really good. I missed what that free was for. Did he get pinged because he assumed he'd been awarded high contact?

 

[Darealrath]

A couple shakey moments but reckon this might be the game where he's turned the corner.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Shaky start, but was looking more like the Redman of old the more the game wore on.

I saw somewhere that he was battling op earlier in the season. Might explain why he hardly trained and looked to have lost his explosive power.

Should wrap him in cotton wool if he has a groin soreness. These condensed fixtures aren’t going to be good for him.

Huh? Where did you see that?

The guy who runs the lunchtime catchup podcast said it on Twitter, obviously heard it from someone at the club.

Groin too

Groin too

What did you think OP was?

What did you think OP was?

you can have OP in different parts to your body, can't your?

Osteotis Pubis refers to the groin. You can have Osteotis Arthritis wherever there's a bone

Hi, Scott here. Just on Mason, at a player sponsor zoom catch up Mason highlighted that he had been battling with OP. In full transparency I was not on that zoom call but a very close friend who sponsors Mason was. I later had it confirmed by someone at the club through a conversation. He has recovered from the OP and things are ok but he noted it did set him back somewhat. I suspect a full off season break and pre season fitness base will do wonders for a much improved Mason in 2021.

Why the **** do our players keep getting OP?

Makes sense. He's not the quickest of the quick but he's still on the quick side of average, average side of quick. He's also got that power to burst away from congestion and look a bit quicker than he is.

After the return from the covid break he was running like he was in sand. It's inevitable that if you're a defender and you're not moving well that mistakes will flow.

Why the fu** do our players keep getting OP?

We are no different to any other sporting club as far as OP goes.

He’s been playing the last 4-6 weeks through some groin soreness which has apparently been improving greatly the last few weeks. No surprise to see him recapturing his early season form. Sometimes we don’t always have the full picture.

Damn spongy floors at The Hangar

Anyone see this bloke potentially putting on some weight and getting into the midfield? Or is his home in the backline?

Happy birthday big fella.

 

[Tang]

this begs the questions... why did we put a player battling OP on the most agile and dangerous small forward in the comp in Charlie Cameron. Even fully fit thats questionable

 

[Bombers1234]

Playing with zero confidence and cannot win a one on one. Looks weak and has no athleticism in the way he moves on the field. Don't like to bash players, but i hope he is injured, because he is just a pedestrian player with no footy smarts if he isn't.

That was a fair bash for someone who doesnt like to bash haha

 

[eth-dog]

I mean he kept the best small forward of the past decade in Breust goalless and really only gave away a couple of opportunities which someone like Breust will always create for himself.

His offensive game will sort itself out IMO

 

[bombreys]

Had huge hopes for him last year, but really seemed to regress this year.

What happened to those long r50 kicks down the wing? He seems the polar opposite of what he was. Now seems to panic with the ball in hand and either handball to someone under pressure or do a dinky little sideways or backwards kick.

Hope he can turn it around next year.

It seemed to happen to most of the team unfortunately. Makes me think there could've been some genuine confusion with game plan. No one bar Ridley, Saad and McGrath really looked confident with what they were doing. Im hoping, and quietly confident that he can bounce back and be that player we all saw.
