Yeah he’s done. Ginni into the line up.
I reckon when he starts believing he is a good footballer he will be a very good footballer. Right now he just doesn’t play with belief.
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

He was building beautifully until the incident. Shattered for the big fella.

Very hard to say exactly what the injury is (apart from knee-related...)
McRae indicated that they would know reasonably quickly.
At best there will be no MCL, PCL or the dreaded ACL, but I am not holding my breath.
Would be shattered if he missed the GF- his finals series has shown why we recruited him.

Fly just all but confirmed it. Said he didn’t know exactly but mentioned MCL/ PCL..

Cox rests forward. Simple.
Ginni into the 22.
(Adam’s if he gets up for lipinski). Noble sub.

We wouldn't have won without his contribution. Big loss and typical of our luck.

He really kept Taylor on the back foot and that doesn’t happen very often.
We’re not kicking big scores and he’s averaged two goals a game since he’s come back.
The only consolation I can come up with, is that if it is the Lions, Payne will miss also and that means McStays replacement should at least hold his own against a lesser opponent.

Well done Macca! Solid game…could’ve had 4…but nailed 2 critical goals…such a devastating outcome if it’s as bad as it looks…feel so bad for him.

He really picked a really bad year to move back to Victoria.
Injury free in Brisbane all those years; welcome to Collingwood son....
At least he avoids Luke Ball Syndrome next week...

I feared the worst once discovering he got subbed out as he was the only guy who looked capable of taking a contested mark inside 50. And it showed, a couple of times when we banged it in, in that last quarter. I reckon it was one of the main reasons we couldn't kick away from them. He'll be a significant loss as we haven't really got anyone who could play that role as well.

Sad. Always heartbreaking stories like this in the week leading up to the GF.

Terrible news for the big fella.
Again, somebody else gets a shot. I feel comfortable with our best 26, there'll be a plan.

Just devastating for the young fella, what a way to go out.
He, for one, will be very hungry next year regardless of next weeks outcome
