It's ironic reading posts wanting Reid dropped and saying he will never replace Teddy...
As a forward, Ted was not as effective as Reid and was put in defence as a last resort, he only got a reprieve due to injury....
So history would say, give Reid time to find his feet as a defender. He's already an excellent spoiler, has good skills and size.
His decision making, as a defender, is his weakness at present. Game time, as a defender, should solve this issue...
I think he's going OK, and don't think he'll be dropped anytime soon.
I like the way Laidler plays, he has a relatively limited skill set but he takes his opponent on, and takes the game on, when he gets the chance...He's a brave player in that respect.
Towers performance as sub was predictably ineffective. Hope not to see him and Cunningham on the same team.
OUT : Towers
IN : Smith
No idea about who should be sub.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT
I find Reid frustrating but I think he needs to be given every chance.
I'd be going Smith IN and Towers OUT - unlike some I rate Towers but suspect he may be trade bait at year end
And I'd have Harry as the Sub
Can't believe some want Reid out especially given that we are playing against Fremantle this week who would be the tallest team in the league - his good far outweighs his bad to us
I'd give towers a full game.
More important question is: Will Goodes travel to Perth?
