This year will hurt more, I think. He was injured last year. But this season, he is fully fit and ready to go. Just been overlooked. Stats suggest he's had a good season.

Adams was BOG for us in the 2018 grand final. Came 2nd in the Norm voting. Which I'm sure many of you are aware of.

But did you know Longmire was one of the judges and the only judge to not award Adams a single vote when the other 3 either had him BOG or 2nd BOG? Seems Horse might have his blinkers on when it comes to Adams.

Why Longmire would not select a fit, proven big stage player, even if a little past his best, has me baffled. Particularly for guys with injury concerns. You at least know Adams will give his all.

It won't matter tonight - you will still win. But I think there's a good chance you might find out on GF day that Longmire has just dropped a Clydesdale-sized sh*t in your bed if he persists with this decision.

Prophecy!

Must be thrilled with Horse’s decision to repeat 2022 & select a hobbled player ahead of him.

Even worse, a hobbled player who is in no way critical to what we do. At least in ‘22, Reid had just torn apart a prelim.

Too many flashy players and not enough of this bloke.

Welp, I think we have made a double mistake. Not being on the emergencies list at all.

Dropped after he gave it all against the Crows. Wouldn't be surprised if he packs his bags tbh.
