Reid dropped 167 in R10 — his 50th AFL game and easily the highest score of his season. Back-to-back 103 and 167 is not variance, it is an elite midfielder operating at his ceiling consistently. At $465k averaging 104 with +$3,971 per week cash gen and a 68 BE he is smashing every week, the price-to-output ratio remains elite. If you don't own him, fix that today. Captain without hesitation.
