Journeyman Sam Reid first began his AFL career in 2008 after being drafted to the Western Bulldogs. He played 10 games for the club before joining the GIANTS as an uncontracted player in 2011. Injuries limited him to 14 games in his two seasons at the club and persistent shoulder issues forced him into retirement at the end of 2013. Reid remained at the club as a Development Coach and captained the NEAFL side. After two years of strong performances in the NEAFL, Reid was placed on the GIANTS’ rookie list ahead of the 2016 season. Reid has taken full advantage of his second chance, playing 19 games, including 13 in 2017. Reid has played predominantly as a forward but has also been used as a tagger to great effect.

I remember in one of his early games at Williamstown he had written something on his arm like "desperate" or something like that. I just took a special interest after that. He went up to GWS as Callan Ward's stable pony.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

He won a Williamstown game by himself one week - had something like 15 touches and 2 goals in the 4th quarter. Was convinced he was going to be a player.
Respect to him making a go of it up there.

His best game for us was in R21 in 2009 when we last beat Geelong. Had a fantastic game that night and then missed the finals and most of next year with groin issues.
Hey Michael, Daniel asked if you can stop texting him the Norwood game plan, it's of absolutely no use to him.
OK, went with "Hey Talia, stop texting me the Norwood Game Plan. I barrack for the Western Bulldogs, we won the flag in 2016 without you"
He spat it and started waving and yelling at at me. The Glenelg player spoke to me after the match and said it was the best sledge he's ever heard, Talia lost it and spat it completely. He said he almost cried, then belted the Bays player who was laughing at him.
