Kane Curnes has again delivered a scathing evaluation of Harley Reid's performance for West Coast this weekend after admitting on Sunday that he was “worried” about the Eagles Draft selection No. 1.
Reid was disappointed during the driving of 87 points of Andrew Mcqualter against Gold Coast.
Despite kicking a goal in the game, the 19 -year -old fought to put his hands in football, took to reach the contact areas and was also beaten by some online by staging.
Reid had been accused of falling to the ground too easily after being expelled from the ball by Gold Coast defender, Charlie Ballard.
He was also in the center of multiple clashes with heating with Gold Coast players throughout the game and was seen laughing and joking with full -time opposition players, after the Eagles had suffered a defeat 7.7 (49) 20.16 (136) in front of their local fans at the Optus stadium.
Port Adelaide Great, Cornes, had declared Sunday during the first call with Kane Curnes that “was not worried about long -term Reid”, but several incidents and their general form at this time had expressed concerns.
Kane Cornes has doubled his criticisms of Harley Reid's performance during West Coast's defeat by Gold Coast Suns

Since then, those statements have doubled in The Agenda Setters of Channel 7 on Monday night, claiming that the teams would be fools when paying their salary reported $ 2 million per season.
“I have never said that in the long term he will not get there, but I think that in five or six years he will,” Cornes began while reviewing his most prominent aspects in the program.
'What we are seeing right now is a real concern. The same happened. It is probably a repetition of what we have seen in the last 12 months.
'The staging, the play, the failure for free kicks.
When noticing the incident with Ballard, Curnes said: 'This has been shown. I can't believe that it has not yet been fined by Mro for that.
Cornes also highlighted Reid's lack of experience at the AFL level by pointing out that the Suns had attacked it with a good effect during the game.
He highlighted a segment in which Reid was dropped to the ground by an opposition player, but continued pushing and pushing his opponent while he was on the floor, instead of getting up and following the play.
“Then they come after him and he doesn't know how to handle that,” Curnes said.
Reid was criticized by cornes and many others after the match for simulation, after it seemed to fail on the ground after being pushed by Charlie Ballard
Cornes also declared that seeing Reid laughing with Gold Coast players after suffering defeat was the “most worrying lot”
'The ball is there, within 30 m, but is still fighting. He is distracted and is out of his game.
He added: 'This is what the teams will do. They will start with him at the stop and expose it along the way.
When noting that Reid was seen laughing with opposition players after the defeat, Cornes added: “This is almost so worrying about the lot, it is the smile and laughter later.”
Commercial rumors continue to revolve around the future of the west coast of Reid.
James Hird said in the Channel 9 soccer oven last week that he believes that the midfielder born in Tongala will play again for a Victorian club in the future.
Hird had claimed that clubs would need to pay $ 2 million per season to get the midfielder, but Curnes said he would be baffled if a club chose to pay so much for the midfielder.
'There is no way that the Harley Reid $ 2MA season can pay responsibly at this time. You couldn't do it, '' he said.
'You would be nervous to pay $ 800,000 per season. His roof is Dustin Martin, that good it could be, but his floor is Jake Stringer.
Port Adelaide Great also pointed out that Reid was seen discarding with multiple Gold Coast players during the game
Curnes's comments attracted some questions by Nick Riewoldt, also in the Punditry panel, with the great K Kilda asking: 'If the port could now obtain it for $ 1 million per season, I would say: “Don't you do it?”
Cornes replied: “I would be so nervous to pay Harley Reid (that).”
Then he revealed to the young man who is surpassing the 2023 Draft selection No. 1, claiming that Port Adelaide star, Jason Horne-Francis, 21, is far superior to Harley Reid. “
The comments were divisive among fans on social networks.
'This is simply dumb. Absolutely terrible takes, 'wrote an user X.
Another added: 'This is such a lazy shot. He (Reid) had a bad game, and suddenly it is much worse than an uncle who at this stage in his career had already left the ship and had gone home.
But a fan agreed with cornes: 'According to cornes here. I am not yet convinced of Reid, TBH. Too early and after witnessing Lalor on Thursday night, he has made this even more fair. '
