Re: 2023 AFL Finals Series

You're right but EW is saying that we would've pantsed the swannies if we had had an easier time against the giants.

It's of course possible. I just think the Pies have an intensity the Lions can not match.

Him?

Jokes aside, nothing bland about a 2nd premiership medal

I mean, that sounds like a challenge Junkley would be up for.

Taylor Adams ruled out of the Grand Final, Lipinski's position seemingly safer now.

Plenty of Pies supporters would disagree, but then they don't pick the team.

Brisbane has Rayner, Cameron, McCarthy and Bailey as potential match-winning small/mid forwards - even Ah Chee has bobbed up and been dangerous in the finals so far. Perhaps the filth will bring Noble into the starting line-up and keep Ginnivan as the sub this week?

Do you think they need to replace McStay with a tall marking target in their forward line?

there is some talk of that, or Lippa sub and Ginnivan in.

Cox to FF, and Cameron ruck

Collingwood confirms Vice-Captain Taylor Adams experienced hamstring awareness at training earlier today and, as a result, will unfortunately be unavailable for selection in the 2023 Toyota AFL Grand Final to played at the MCG this Saturday.

Adams initially suffered a low-grade hamstring injury during a training session held on Friday, September 15.

General Manager of Football Graham Wright expressed the Club’s disappointment in the prognosis.

“Unfortunate news for Taylor Adams who experienced hamstring awareness during training today which will see him miss the Grand Final,” Wright said.

McStay out and Frampton in is what I'm hearing. He's no McStay up forward but it is a like-for-like at least. I suppose it also gives them flexibility to move Frampton back and bring Howe forward in-game, or get Frampton to do some ruck minutes and have Cox up forward more.

Damn, Taylor Adams has been one of my favourite footballers for a long time. I feel for him.

Did he experience awareness or tightness? I feel like he should already know that he has hamstrings by the time he reaches 30.

Especially given the risk of injury to them in his profession.

Imagine the shock when he realised they were behind him this whole time.
