Bio
A local product recruited from South Melbourne Districts, Ray Reed was a diminutive utility who briefly graded for the Swans in the mid-1950s. Standing just 175cm and weighing 73kg, Reed lacked the physical size to play a key position but offered agility as a depth player, likely rotating through the flank or wing. He broke into the senior lineup during the 1955 season, where he managed to boot his solitary VFL goal, but struggled to cement a permanent spot in the starting eighteen. Reed added a handful of games to his tally in 1956 before departing the club, finishing his career with ten matches in the red and white.
