    Agreed, it's great news and from my perspective a pretty big AFL story with he getting back so quickly and well. Seems a tough nut both on and off the field.

    Well done Sam, all the best tomorrow night/moving forward

      I do hope the Herald Sun pick up on this story. It is tough playing football with type 1. I only know of two other AFL players who made the big time and played with type 1 Bassett from Adelaide and Dale Weightman from Richmond. I maybe wrong Go Dogs.

          Switching radio stations last night I heard Mark Fine mention how courageous Sam Reid was with his battles with diabetes. Basically said he is a hero and inspiration to many young people in Australia.

            I just hope his dream of playing AFL football and trying to manage his diabetes at the same time doesn't effect his long term health.

              spoke with Sam this morning. He has damaged both shoulders. Will now seek medical advice and what course of action he should take. He is a tough guy and needs all the support he can get.
              Sam you are my hero and the hero of many young children with type 1. Chin up! Go the mighty Dogs

                Great courage showed by Sam, and what a blow to dislocate both shoulders last night (if the report I heard is correct). Gotta hope he is able to come back from these injuries. I think it has the potential to be a fine in and under player for us in the future.

                  Fantastic effort by Sam to get back out there after numerous bumps to his shoulders. Sorry to hear of the damage done. Just hope that he can get his body right and come back bigger and brighter in 2011.
