If Reid gets fit, I still don't see him in our best 22 noting how well we have done without him. We move the ball faster and with more precision than when he is in the team. Foe me, back up at best - enjoy the rest of the contract in the VFL.

Straight into the team at CHB, if he's fit. He remains the best tall backman on our list. He was probably finished with injury three seasons ago but he's not back up if he's fit.

The tone of the original post is a little disrespectful.

Gee wiz.

I agree. Reid at CHB, Moore at FB depending on matchups

Considering our lack of height down back, I wish he were fit.

Just to have the option of a KPP to bring in.....

Yes, no longer in our best 22

only gets a game now because of Dunn's injury. If Dunn was fit and playing, Reid wouldn't get a game in the seniors.

Not needed up forward nor down back.

Not too many players can play both as a forward and a key defensive player, if and when he’s fit, he’s straight in.

^^^ I believe he was in 2010 and 2011, but after that... probably not.

He is better as a backman

There was one particular day in 2011 that he wasn't particularly fit... Rolling Eyes

His injury in the 2011 Granny cost us the flag.

I think he's cooked and wouldn't be surprised if he hangs up the boots end of year. Really can't find a spot for him atm, even as a defender.
