Sam Reid

[mayne iac]

Just heard on SEN that we are going hard at Sam Reid. The boys said that the Goosage told em. hmmm....
Hope its true, I'm guessing we might have to cough up our first rounder....
Pay him some serious coin Freo, make it happen. Then get his bro next year.

If this is true, make it happen freo! Offer him some coin, he's on the cover of the new AFL video game afterall.

 

[Lach72]

Now that's what I'm talking about

**** this would be bizarre if we got Sam Reid.It wasn't so long ago when a lot of us would go,Houghton at pick 36 and then Reid pick 39 to the swans,spewing.

 

[malpaso]

Get that boy in the club now!

 

[Perth Bhoy]

Missing piece in our premiership cog this would be! Pretty sure we have some $$$ to throw at him too (given the $1m failed Cloke, Taylor and other bids)

If we got Reid,it would definitely help ease the swans cap space,which will hopefully help us.
I'm pretty sure he was on fairly lengthy contract too.

Buddy seems to play pretty high up the ground, sometimes ending up on the wing. I never really cared a lot about watching Swans games, but wasn't that Reid's role? Even if it wasn't, Reid would surely consider it – one flag contender to another, a big(ger) pay, and a starring role at centre-half forward instead of on a flank.

And he's probably the best target since Riewoldt. And the most likely since Bitch Clark.

Definitely worth a first pick and two players. We are screaming out for a power forward.

Nope. With our outs this year we should have close to, if not 1 mil freed up. Coupled inn the fact it is probably ROK's and Goodes' last year(s) and the increase in the cap by 500k league wide.

If anything he'll be groomed to play Goodes role in forward line or sent to CHB before we consider letting him go

Does the PSCG have wings? Almost forward pocket to forward pocket.

What do Sydney do? Pay everyone outside their top 10 in peanuts?

What about buddy's decade long contract?

 

[pira28]

I've always wondered whether we would make a play for Sam Reid since Franklin moved to Sydney. Hopefully he isn't our next 'Mitch Clark' though but I'm not sure whether he would be willing to move to Perth.

 

[rgauci]

We'll have some competition from Vic clubs. I can think of half a dozen clubs that would jump at the chance.

The buldogs are bound to make a decent offer for him.

According to the web his contract is 5 years and he is about 2-3 years through it. Still if we get him in the trade period then I will be happy.

 

[Nickos66]

2 things, Didn't he sign like a 5-6 year contract this year or last?

I don't want to give Sydney anything they deserve for someone of his quality, the last thing they need is a decent draft pick or a gun mid.

Swans might be looking at cover for Rhys Shaw.

I remembered an interview on the radio with Brad Lloyd and they asked him if he had any regrets or made mistakes, he said not taking Sam Reid was one.

Reid will probably need to decide if he wants to play back for the rest of his career or not. If he thinks he can be a forward, and all the associated kudos and $$$ then i can see him heading west. But he is happy to play his role where ever Sydney want him (CHB) then you'd have to think he'd stay.

Dogs board is reporting that deal to get Patton is very close.

 

[Quokka]

That'd have to be some deal.

 

[EastcoastDocker]
