Geelong showed anything this year it's how to manage older players they did it brilliantly.
Easier when you're gifted easy games at Kardinia Park

I’m someone with the slows on him currently. I doubt he’s been fit since 2020 and I’m not sure we’ll ever see him fully fit again based on his comments about his groin late year. He’ll have a limited preparation and has limited flexibility in his game because of his ball use. It’s not a recipe for success in modern footy.
As we stand he’s not in my best Collingwood midfield group so will take a back seat when he returns and if he’s competing with Hill/ Elliott/ Ginnivan/ McReery for a small forward spot it’s a no from me (he’s even less chance down back). I’m not expecting much from him until 2024.

Will benefit from a five man bench if that’s introduced.

Hmmmm. Adams record stands at 78-2-72 (51.3% W rate). Club 105-2-97 (51.4% W rate) since he arrived at the club.

So he’s right then…. We are better off without adams.
Stats don’t lie!
Yeah, such a significant difference that all hangs on Taylor Adams participation.... go figure

They will compliment one another.
Nobody does what Adams does for our team. Not even Mitchell. But in any case, I reckon Mitchell's presence will only help Adams prolong his career. Ease the pressure that gets placed on him.
We keep saying Adams needs help, and now he has it. Its not displace of him, but more with him.
I hope so too!
Just need Tay hand balling and not kicking. That will extend his shelf life.
how long has it been since his last burger ring engagement story?

Looking fit and ready for a big year!
hopefully our fitness staff do another awesome job this year. Our fitness and lack of injuries last year was a big reason we were able to consistently win the close ones last year.

Pretty strongly, it's like you wouldn't believe he did a serious groin injury in september. They have held him back pre-christmas, but he is moving as well as he ever had. So fingers crossed it can be sustained.

Think Taylor is going to absolutely thrive with Titch in there with him. Releases a lot off his shoulders and I think; pending his injury status, can really benefit from the help.

Back to his best with Titch there to help!
