Tom Harley saying yesterday he saw Reid as future AA centre half back. Seems a good bet. In the meantime he can swing.

I've only proposed Garry Rohan and Sam Reid as a tag on Tall midfielders.
You can get a Craig Bird to go with Fyfe in close contested packs, but Fyfe will kill him in the air when in open play drifting forward. Rohan or Reid are tall, athletic, both have great leaps and Fyfe would not dominate them in the air. Until Rohan is 100% fit and firing I would not give him that job.
I think Reid would be wonderful on Fyfe and may be able to hurt Fyfe in the air going the other way.
If he is going to do any tagging, Reid should tag dre everitt this week. Dre is in outstanding form.
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
He has been given a lot of defensive roles but was set free on the weekend (probably because of the opposition) and absolutely dominated..particularly the first quarter. Had something like 12 kicks 1 handball (100% disposal efficiency) 7 marks (St Kilda only managed 10 from the whole team) and kicked a goal as well...pretty decent quarter of football.
In saying all of that I still don't think he would be getting a game in our current 22
