Suggests he trained well, but they track top speeds, distance speeds, turning bursts, jumping power and heights, you name it . . . And they’d only need to find a couple of small margins to suggest he wasn’t quite there.
Either that, or we weren’t prepared to take the risk regardless.
It still takes real balls to make the call on your captain like that, so kudos to them. And the players know they had a great performance record without him earlier in the year.
its be heartbreaking for everyone if we win, but that’s the ruthlessness of top end footy.Comment

The right call imo. Was wondering if they’d squeeze him in as sub, but I’m relieved they’ve made that call.
our best footy has been with Mills out of the side this year.He ate more cheese, than time allowedComment

Great call. The only change from the Opening Round to Grand final is Sam wicks goes out and Luke Parker takes his position. Not Bad. The players who have played consistently for the entire season get the reward except for Taylor Adams who played 19 games and Sam Wicks who played 16. But both should agree that Parker has done more in the 6 games that he was selected than either of them over a 6 game period. Campbell has to stand up in this game and absolutely nail it. He has everything to be the match winner just like Warner, Heaney and Gulden. Just has to believe👍 1Comment

Genuinely disappointed for Callum, but appreciate that we seem to be making the right call.I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time👍 1Comment

If we win on Saturday, it will be Stuart Maxfield to present the cup. Which I like, because he's often cited as someone who was instrumental in driving a highly professional culture at the club, during the early Paul Roos era. If Brisbane somehow manages to win, it'll be Leigh Matthews.Comment

I would've hated to be in Horse's shoes (pardon the pun) when he informed Mills. Shattered for him. One article suggested he left Horse's office in tears.
Hope this doesn't develop into another Taylor Adams scenario, but rather this turns out to exemplify why the club had chosen him as Captain in the first place.
Ultimately i trust the club has made the right call, as they have all the data we're not privy to.Comment

And I’d be sure that he’d instantly turn his mind to how he can help from here.Comment
