they are clearly lying about reid. he has gone from playing in a vfl practice match this thursday to try and get him up for rnd 1, to pulling him from full training to manage him? i am sick of how they insult us with these rubbish injury reports. he is clearly injured again, and we probably won't see him in the 1st month of the season
You are not far wrong. I need to be more attentive.
Not sure supporters could handle another long soft tissue injury to Reid.
That would be extremely scary.

And get Pick 100 for him? No one is going to want him.
His trade value can't get much lower than it is at the moment.
It's already too late to trade him
Did we really sign Ben Reid up for 4 yrs last yr? What on earth are we smoking down by the river side? If our club continue to try and pull the wool over our eyes then they should be prepared ...the natives will eventually get restless .. Part of the reason why their projected total of 100,000 members isn't even close yet
Stop bullshitting us CollingwoodFC... please

The lack of sympathy for Reid on this board is frankly astonishing. It sounds like he has been working his absolute arse off over the past 2 years to get himself right, but his body keeps letting him down. How frustrating it must be for a player who should be entering his prime. As one of the key parts of a Collingwood premiership, he owes us nothing. We owe Reidy some patience and respect.

Believe me there is utmost respect to Reidy he has served us very well and he will always be a magpie premiership player.
When is enough enough though, he is getting old man injuries mid twenties, we have a lot of players who keep getting these recurring injuries, it would be in our long term interest to look at all options including getting something of value now while we may still be able to.
I would like nothing more than to see him get another 100+ games but don't think he will string another 30 the way his body keeps letting him down.
If your not improving you're falling behind as harsh as it seems.

This one here seems to cover poor old Greenwood's injury and at the end it talks about the club taking the conservative approach with Reid's recovery from a hamstring injury, but am not sure if that qualifies as new, sorry, haven't followed it as closely:

I think the problem is we'd be lucky to snaffle a packet of stale twisties for him compared to what he might once have commanded, he's too injury-prone.
Poor bugger (if true)

Has anybody done the BS loading calculations? What are we looking at in terms of realistic return dates?
On a side note, does anyone know why Internet Explorer randomly capitalizes some words in this window, yet Firefox can resist that urge? Shits me no end.

Great post!
We wouldn't get a packet of chips for Reid now.

Reid has said his hammy is fine and that he is sick (ill) but I guess no-one here believes him?
According to media he was at the scanning clinic and claimed he was sick? Haha strange place to go if your sick!

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure that the clinic has both medical rooms and a radiological clinic. In fact, I'm pretty sure our club doctor practices from that clinic.
The fact the Reid said he didn't know when he'll be back is a real worry, couldn't tell us if it'll be rd 1, 2,3 or even 4 .... His words.

Have you not also raised your eyebrows at Reid being "backed off from training" for a day or two? He's been building steadily for the past month has had two hit outs and the club have decided to pull him back just 3 days after the rumors surfaced. It's too stinky for me.
I'm not going to go hard at anyone who is putting their faith in the club, but some critical thinking needs to go into it, IMO.
