With all the comparison on Reid v Brown that has been goin on this year I would be interested in your guys thoughts on the comparison with Presti and Maxwell.

Considering Brown is a pure out and out stopper like Presti and Reid is a rebounding defender like Maxwell is it just the game style that most prefer from Reid or the actually ability. I think that these two would be the most suited two comparisions.
 
Maxy doesn't have the body size to play on the true KPFs, when he has played on them, he has been soundly beaten. Maxy plays on the opposition's 3rd forward option and zones off to be the 3rd man up in the contest to help out our KPDs (Reid, N Brown, Presti). You can't really compare Maxy to Presti, or to N Brown & Reid for that matter, because he plays a very different role.

If the Pies forwards were to play the Pies backs, Presti/N Brown would play on Dawes, Reid would play on Cloke & Maxy would play on JA.

Presti could probably play on any of our forwards and give them a bath, I think he would do best against Dawes and JA though, Cloke would probably still get a bit of it but more than likely higher up the ground.


As said above can't really compare Maxxy and Presti, I'd prefer Presti though as he plays on the best forward and shuts them out and his only real replacements are inexperienced defenders whereas Maxwells replacements are Heater and Harry. Harder to cover so I think he gets the nod.
