Fantastic news? He hasn't played a game yet

 

[Mr Bombastic]

I hope this thread doesn't jinx him.

Three words from the 2015 pre-season. Freeman is flying!

Let's wait until April before making any proclamations on Reid please

Fantastic news? He hasn't played a game yet

I wonder who'll be the next to quote this after me...

Don't Jinx him

 

[Trojan Pies]

He's looking a bit leaner than previous years - which I hope is true. I've been saying he was top heavy for a few seasons. Being lighter would put less load on his hammys. Can anyone verify?

Extra weight puts stress on joints like knees

I wouldn't put too much stock into "he's flying in the pre-season!" talk. Plenty of water under the bridge before the season actually starts, let alone if he can hold up for a full campaign. Still, it's good to actually see him training properly and moving well.

So what you're saying is don't go out and put any money on him for he brownlow?
In all seriousness it is great to see him in full training, he is so important to the side

His arms either got bigger, or his body smaller.

 

[DERKADERRR]

He's looking very lean now, best he's looked in a while now!

Reid is the key to returning to the finals. Let's hope his body is now double glazed.

His arms either got bigger, or his body smaller.

I'd say body got smaller judging by what I saw before Xmas.

 

[jmac70]

But he hasn't played a game yet lol #crybabyabove #playerwatchthread if he gets back to that great form a few years ago it will be great to watch jmac.

No doubt about that. He makes our team at least 10% better.

I second that. let's just sit back and enjoy the young man's talents if everything comes together and holds together.

Maybe his head got bigger.

 

[Go Pies!!!!!]

Good to see.... Let's hope it stays that way for him he is very important to our side and gives us so much flexibility.

[THATSGOLD]

Flying in January. Hope I don't have to dig this thread up at any point during the 2016 season.

Then don't. You don't always need to be a smart arse.

Body fat is down which makes him look bigger.

I think we can make finals without him, but he sure does help.
