Was super impressive last night, intercepting well, kicking it well to set up play and showing really good speed. Scored a 102 in his first game back and looks to playing his scoring friendly floating role in the backline. Priced at 302k. Anyone else think he could be a good corrective trade? If Seedsman and Greene on notice in my side for a trade to Reid.

You have to consider him as long as Buckley leaves him in the backline

Last time we had Reidy fully fit we won a flag and he was all australian.
Think people forgot how effective his kicking is not just his defensive marks/reading of the play.
He's a star mate, but he's one of the most injury prone players in the AFL, struggles get out onto the park and will probably play 10-13 games this year. Hoping not tough!  8)

I think he will be left in the backline, Buckley has daid he will. His kicking was awesomelast night. Injuries are the question mark but should average 80, can push that to 90 even and almost be a D6. I started Seedsman so if he has a another shocker will look to offload.
