2007 AFL Draft Prospect: Sam Reid

September 1st 2007 13:19
Name: Sam Reid
Height: 185
Weight: 75
State: Queensland
Club(s): Zillmere

AFL Positions:
An outside midfielder, a medium-sized running defender or a role around half forward are some of the spots that AFL teams might use him in.

Perfect Fit For:
The Lions could see him as a future replacement for Nigel Lappin. The bonus for the Lions is that by drafting a player from Queensland it will eliminate the "go home factor" that is always a possibility when drafting players from the other states.

AFLinsider.net prediction:
Essendon will probably target smaller players in this draft, a round 3 pick used on Reid might be the right option. He plays the game differently to the Johnsons, but could replace them in the Essendon lineup. The Bombers found games for Camporeale and Reid could also be used like he was.

AFL Fantasy Outlook:
If he does get a chance to play a few games next season, Reid could surprise with his stats as he does know how to get into space. A few marks on the wing, some kicks into the forward line and an occasional goal would be enough to double his starting fantasy price. Reid might land on a struggling team that has a lot of playing time available, that could really push his stats up and make him a fantasy option at the centre position.
