Interesting Ray has been dropped

Interesting Ray has been dropped

Yep - he's in the emergencies too, so definitely dropped.

Congrats to Reid, deserves a crack and looks a player

That back 6 is shorrrrrrrt. One of Wight or Everitt (and I note Cam is also in the emergencies and Andrejs is not) has to come into that back 6 for next Friday.

Are you sure he is fit enough to play

Without ANY research, another debutatant in the past @ Football Park v Crows was Giansiracusa

And he kicked a goal with his first kick, courtesy of a handball over the top from Chris Grant.

A dribbly little grubber kick that rolled through IIRC.

The commentators remarked on how 'baby-faced' he was. Has anything changed?

Re: Western Bulldogs v Adelaide - Team

Question for Williamstown watchers.
How quick is Reid? Quick enough to play a back pocket roll on the Rioli's, Varcoe's etc ??
Is his body physically strong enough to hold down a back pocket role?

Re: Western Bulldogs v Adelaide - Team

I dont want to put the jinx on Reid but i have the feeling he is going to have an immediate impact from the get go. Comming from QLD he seems to have settled quite well in Melbourne, may have something to do with his level of maturity?

Now go and watch him get one handball for the game :P

That was an issue earlier this year. The club did some some reservations, particularly as he seemed to be leading another newbie astray. Thankfully the penny dropped & he's now playing good footy.
