Very underrated for the role he plays for the saints. Does his job. Kicks a couple and sets up a couple each week. He loses focus because other teams concentrate on their stars.

That is the benefit of playing in strong sides riddled with stars.
 
Like to see Bally just go head to head with Hayes. Neither have great leg speed.

Hard tag on Dal Santo. Probably like to see O'Bree go on him.

Heater on Schneider.

Reiwoldt is going to get his few goals no matter who he plays on. He's just so good. We just to focus on limiting the supply, first and foremost.

Goddard is a tricky match up.

Harry O can match him for speed and size, but we may lose some drive from him.
 
I want to see Reid go onto Reiwoldt. Has the athleticism to go with the Roo. Hopefully he has the strengths and footy smarts too.

Couldn't match Green & Petterd in these areas on Saturday, absolute Buckley's that he will discover these attributes against Rooey.
 
The instruction to L.Brown for the game is to get inside Reiwoldt's head, rough him up, knock him about and be in his face every minute of the match...

Yay or nay?

If Leroy can actually catch him, it might be a good idea.

Reiwoldt is a protected species... though he is a champion player he relies heavily on the umpires to be on his side and is a very very good stager who does not mind giving it out one on one but goes to ground like a rabbit when the same is returned

If Leroy roughs up it should be in the spirit of the game during play time... non of this giving frees to a F/F when the ball is in the centre square or our forward line

I believe that there are 4 important matchups that need to be covered for us to win the game.

Reiwoldt- If we can stop his influence we will beat the saints.Expect Presti and maxy and reid/Brown to rotate minding him.If we can take him up the ground
who cares if he gets a lot of the ball on the wing,his kicking will be ineffective in that area of the ground.The thing is though the saints play Etihad Stadium very well.They can clogg us up becuse the ground is not very wide,the G is different.
Counter Reiwoldt and we go a long way to winning the game quite easily i reckon.

Milne-Aside from reiwoldt Milne moreso than Schneider,is a dangerous small opportunist.He feeds off reiwoldt very well so if Harry O sits on him and makes him ineffective,the saints forward structure will crumble.
By making both reiwoldt and milne ineffective,they haven't got the capabilities of scoring high.

Goddard-this guy is their barometer.He is an extremely versatile player
who can quite easily break a game open.Booming kick ,and he can play a very good defensive role as well.For mine he is the crucial player to stop.
Whoever gets the job on him,must play him very tight,and stay with him
all night,not giving him space to move,otherwise he will break the lines and create havoc.

Lenny Hayes-The great extractor.Lukey ball will have his hands full,but i reckon luke will shows us tonight why we recruited him and dispell a lot of rumours.Centre clearances,and stoppages is where we must not let Hayes
cut loose.If he does stkilda will domainate,if luke can close him down we a real good chance.
