Changes v Sydney

[Big_Money_Papa]

too many beers in the offseason then shreds up for the finals.

What a lad! What a 2015 Buddy. Lock in a round 18 place in first 22 for O'shizzle.
Magpies game this week will be interesting for fringe players form

Inclusion

I think you have told us b4 that your Reddo's mate?

I think Redden makes sense. Plonk him in the F50 with 5-10 minute stints in the ruck to give Ryder a chop out. Even when severely fatigued in that NAB game, he looked like a massive target in front of goal.

Also would be much better for the run against Richmond.

 

[Forzaport]

Big call if it's Redden to replace Butcher. First AFL game in almost 2 years. Excitement building

Expect an interesting surprise at selection tonight...

Last time you said nice surprise and it was redden. Nice as in referencing feel good news

This time you say interesting surprise. I reckon this is hinting a debut someone who is unexpected and viewed as not ready yet. Am I along the lines?

my bet is mitch Harvey..............................or dougie

Harvey can't run himself out of a wet paper bag atm.

is he that much worse off than redden?
In the case edit to dougie

 

[Jumbo]

What's this junk about Impey not having a match up??
He's a defender so we'll put him on a dangerous forward of even use him to defend one of their backmen who may be normally too damaging for us, the lad just played a great game and here's hoping that he's given a tough task and prevails again.

Yes, Redden is 10 cm taller and heavier and can hold his own in the ruck and up forward, Harvey tries hard but he's got a lot of learning to do.

 

[It Just Is]

Harvey can't run himself out of a wet paper bag atm.

That's because he's meant to punch his way out of said paper bag!

 

[Lefti93]

i think redden in for 3 quarters before being subbed, letting paddy ruck out the 4th. pretty disappointed if butch is out, but i can't see it being anyone else unless someone has picked up a knock.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Surprise hey?

Predicting Mitchell in for Butcher, Sam Gray in for Neade

 

[port always]

lol.

If you lol someones opinion and you are wrong ..do you lol yourself we will see

 

[tangolikelama]

Mitchell for Pittard

S.Gray for Schulz - seeing we like to use short people as targets

Yes. Fitness issues aside Redden is an outstanding ruckman who's deft tap work will give our mids a definite advantage at stoppages. Harvey is a young forward who only played in ruck last year because the Magpies simply didn't have a recognised ruckman available.

 

[Chokito]

Impey was outstanding. Does he have a direct match up against Sydney?

thats what i meant, sorry. does he have a match up?

 

[badbeats]

Play him forward, drop Neade.

 

[chimmez]

Play him forward, drop Neade.

Yep. Defensive forward role on Jetta.

 

[AdamMarrett]

Tredders on Triple M said Lobbe is doubtful again, but he reckons Redden may come in. Butch not likely to get a 2nd go according to Tredders.

I hope we don't get burned bringing in another underdone player.

So Tredders also reads BigFooty.

 

[AdamMarrett]

We probably can't ruck Paddy and Westhoff again. If Redden is fit enough and Lobbe can't go we should play him. Eagerly waiting for the team announcement being on holidays from work for a week is giving me to much time to over think about our game on the weekend.

Some of Reddo's ruckwork when he was up and about last season could be described as Lade like, it's great to see him selected, his lack of match fitness could be an issue though.

 

[mic59]

It's going to be good to see Redden back. I can't think that Hinkley has anything too much intended for him. I would expect him to stay in the forward lines, clunk marks in the goalsquare and save Ryder from having to come any further than the middle of the ground by doing the forward rucks. This should allow Ryder to stay on the ground and keep up a lone ruck position for the full night.
Whatever has been said here in the past, it seems that Redden has regained at least enough fitness to run out a game. I can't see Hinkley going with half-fit players. But I'm starting to worry about Lobbe. The first call on this board that he may miss was done 3 days before the Freo game and it was originally touted as something they were being careful about. Now he has missed two and Port in the past have said that an injury is a 1 or 2 week thing and it then stretches out to 4 or 6.

 

[davesnothere]

On the up side The Swans aren't about to let someone who is 205 cm tall and can kick straight run around on his own. If someone runs off of him a turnover would be embarrassing if they don't get back on Redden quickly enough. Redden will win the taps, if his radar is on Ollie Boaky and Robbie will get the best service they have had in the time Kens been there. Really looking forward to watching how this ends up.
