RECRUITED FROM: Collingwood

 

[The Mares Leg]

He did get stuck into McRae in the press after he exited Collingwood.

Has a bit of form.

Interesting.

‘Mouthie’ doesn’t have to mean confronting or bad-mouthing people - it can just mean whining the week before a final - I can guarantee Horse would not cop that- he’s from the same mold as Roos…..he’s the Boss.

 

[GoTheSwannies]

Gotta say I really felt for Adams at the end of the game. Was trying to put on a smile but couldn't hide the fact that he was crushed.

Just a sad situation for him.

 

[BarneyBent]

Whatever might be going on, thought he was outstanding after the game. Standing with Mills, pumping up the boys when BT came up. I'm sure he's feeling a lot of emotions but he's been nothing but professional and supportive from what I've seen, rumours from journos be damned.

Yup, don't think he would've expected to find him in the situation he's in now. Looking unlikely he makes our team on Grand Final day unless there is an injury at training during the week.

 

[swanniesfan]

They should probably extend the premiership medal to those who played at least half of the season as they contributed to the success and result

 

[Superstar swan]

Extremely disappointing if rumours are true about him blowing up. Not what this club is about

Read in another thread that Campbell was limping a bit due to his groin. If true, then maybe Adams will get his chance.

 

[melbournehammer]

It is what it is. Im super disappointed for him and if I see him I'd tell him that I've been super happy with him in the red and white.

Hes not perfect but no footballer is and itd be a hard blow.



But it is what it is for him so Im sorry for him and Im sure horse has tried to manage it

Campbell looked very sore in the fourth quarter

Maybe. But even if they did, I doubt players in that situation will consider themselves premiership players if they didnt play in the big game. I do wonder if James Jordon sees himself as a premiership player seeing as he was the medi sub who didnt play. Anyway, I am off topic now.

 

[MF]

Didn't seem like a player who'd blown up at the club when interviewed in the rooms.
