St Kilda coach Ross Lyon has become the latest AFL figurehead to sympathise with Harley Reid after West Coast’s No.1 draft pick was stripped of the chance to win the Rising Star award. Reid will miss games against North Melbourne and Essendon either side of West Coast’s bye after being slapped with a two-match ban for a dangerous sling tackle.
The tackle that coast Harley Reid the Rising Star. West Coast challenged the ruling at the AFL tribunal in a bid to halve the suspension, but were unsuccessful. Reid was the raging-hot favourite to win the Rising Star award, but is now ineligible due to the ban. In a twist of fate, St Kilda’s Darcy Wilson, who was the one tackled by Reid, is now the third favourite to win the award behind only North Melbourne duo George Wardlaw and Colby McKercher.
