Sana Torium "Tori" Reid (22 September 1912 – 19 March 2003) was a New Zealand rugby union player. A lock and flanker, Reid represented East Coast and Hawke's Bay at a provincial level, and was a member of the New Zealand national side, the All Blacks, from 1935 to 1937. He played 27 matches for the All Blacks including nine internationals.[1] Affiliating to Ngāti Porou,[2] Reid represented New Zealand Māori between 1931 and 1949.[1] In a long first-class career from 1929 to 1952, he played 157 games, which was then a New Zealand record.[1] Between 1952 and 1954, Reid served as a New Zealand Māori selector.[1]
