As many posts as games that Redman had played before this weekend!

Also, aliases avoiding a suspension don't last.

 

[eDPS]

Has started as expected, should be a feature for the rest of the year

liking this kid.

 

[Stopher]

The 2nd half of this season is gonna be fun viewing IMO

 

[Mad Bomber Sean]

Like this kid. Once he fully adjusts to the speed of the game I think he will become a good player...

 

[naraku]

A great game from Mason, he's barely wasted the ball either.

He and Ridley will make a good 1-2 out of defence.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Fabulous today.

 

[Westlo]

Looked really good, looked like he belonged. Hope he plays the rest of the season.

 

[Darealrath]

Very impressive.

Used the ball better than most. Good size and pace too.

Bright future with these young guns all under 25! Redman / Ridley / Daniher / Stewart /Fantasia / Guelfi / Stewart / Ridley / Begley / Langford / McGrath / Stringer / Saad / Mckeena

Would love to see Myers out and Clarke and Laverde playing his role...

Need some more key back depth & ruck. But we are covered for these spots for a few year.

 

[JuniorWatch]

Looked good in every facet except decision making when on the break at times.
Can't wait to see him linking up with his other ginger friend (hint: not corgi)

Under 25 Essendon 22:
B: Saad - Francis - Redman
HB: McKenna - Ridley - McGrath
C: Parish - Clarke - Mutch
HF: Stringer - Daniher - Laverde
F: Fantasia - Stewart - Begley
R: Draper - Merrett - Langford
I/C: Guelfi - Mutch - Gleeson - Long

Pretty exciting that all of them except Draper and maybe Long could be considered best 22.

Personally not sure about Draper. Our ruck stocks need urgent attention.

Imagine if we can get a fit Ollie Wines into this team

 

[TheGrizz]

Rising star nomination locked up surely?!?

Draper is doing pretty damn well for a 20 year old ruck.

 

[BomberTime]

Rising star nomination locked up surely?!?

Is he eligible?

 

[TheGrizz]

Is he eligible?

Under 21 heading into this year and played less than 10 games.

Should be.

 

[Zach Package]

Is he eligible?

He's still 20 so yeah, feels like he's been around forever though

 

[Mad Bomber Sean]

Hartley?

Yeah I forgot about Harts. He is defo in that group, people ( including me ) forget that he is still very young.

Draper is so far from being our first ruck, but I wouldn't discard him either. I think he has maybe another two years of VFL before he can hold down a number one ruck position. They take longer to develop so its a bit of an unfair comparison.

Obviously Draper in't close to playing AFL. This is his 3rd year of football. He's at least a 2020 prospect, and probably more of a 2021 or 2022 prospect to be our #1.

Are you liking my post? lol

He'll be a big unit by then.
Let's be patient.
I like him!

Needs more Zerk

 

[Zach Package]

I already have complete faith in him

 

[Pweter]

If this is the result of making kids wait and wait and ******* wait some more until they're ready to eat a football, then by all means, make them wait before unleashing.

In the 2s Redman more than proved his form wasn't a fluke, he'd played well in any role asked of him, his body is sound and fitness is good. Lo and behold he comes in and is in our bests.
