AFL:Sit back and enjoy: Harley Reid finally gets his moment

West Coast star Harley Reid is being tipped to light up the big MCG stage when an expected crowd of 90,000-plus fans rock up for Saturday's clash with Collingwood at the MCG.

With Collingwood veteran Scott Pendlebury celebrating his record-breaking 433rd game, the Eagles will have to contend with the biggest home-and-away crowd in West Coast's history.

The Eagles possess the youngest and most inexperienced list in the league and a host of their fledgling talents will be playing at the MCG for the first time this Saturday.

Reid will be playing there for just the third time.

Eagles coach Andrew McQualter revealed on Thursday the club had already leaned on their psychologist to help players deal with the big occasion.
