Underappreciated post.

You honestly can't make this up:

Collingwood swingman Ben Reid will not feature in his side’s Round 2 clash against Richmond after suffering a hamstring injury, according to SEN’s Sam Edmund. |
Still waiting on the AFL report, but found this:

There will be news about Reid on 9 news —“another injury to the veteran has his career hanging by a thread”

It looks like Brodie Mihocek will be available. He did a full match sim today, so that's great news. In his recent presser, Bucks alluded to the impressive efforts of Darcy Cameron to earn a position in the side, so we have back up this time round to cover Ben Reid's injury. In the same presser, Bucks appeared to rule out Adam Treloar, but if you listen closely to his words, not entirely. He suggested that the door was still very slightly ajar if Treloar could do the necessary work. but I am sure we will err on the side of caution with this, so I am sure the probability of Treloar being available is extremely low.

I know that Reid is no longer a favourite among the posters here but since I met and spoke to him at a Season launch function a few years back, I have loved him as a player. He bleeds black & white and it is nothing short of a tragedy that he has had constant injuries. I also think that the younger pie fans have probably never seen him at his best or maybe not at all, so its easy for them to diss him. You cant put mature heads on young shoulders.
FWIW, I sincerely hope he can play a few good games at senior level this season and and that lady luck goes his way for a change. Please God, let this happen and please don't hate my beloved Magpies so much

He,s a Magpie premiership player & All Australian and a great bloke to boot
He’s had a horrible run over last few yrs but fit and firing a champion
He may not be around much due to injury but pay the man respect

I hope Jezza you were not referring to my post, because like you I would always honour a Collingwood Premiership legend like Ben Reid. He has been a really great player for us, and I have always backed his selection in the last few years, despite the injury challenges he has confronted. Like you, I hope he plays quite a few senior games this year. I am simply stating that this year, unlike last, we have extra cover now with Darcy Cameron.

If you were referring to my post, I'm Lazza and not Jezza.
And no I was not referring to your post but just making a comment.

Reid WAS a great player.
Should never have been signed to a new contract. Writing has been on the wall for a few years re: his lack of durability.

The prudence of obtaining Darcy Cameron is becoming evident if big Mason were to be unavailable—likewise Brody

How far advanced do Nickster,s believe Max Lynch is —-he is almost 22yrs old and now in his 4th season
With no VFL for him I wonder will he get a gig this year. (Injuries could fast track that)

Already it is starting to sound like we will have half our best 22 out, and the season hasn't even resumed yet.
Why does this seem so much like deja vu?

If you have a source, specify it. This sounds like more kite-flying, 90nice. |
