‘Didn’t warrant it’: GWS coach fumes at ‘extremely disappointing’ HIA test saga
Daniels was consoled by his former captain, retiring GWS defender Phil Davis, after the one-point preliminary final loss. Picture: Phil Hillyard“ really disappointed to lose Brent Daniels for a HIA assessment that he passed comfortably in the last five minutes of the game, which hurt us around the ball with a bit of leg speed, a bit of overlap run, so that’s extremely disappointing,” he said.
He was a source of important speed and creativity in the Giants’ forward half along with captain Toby Greene, who Kingsley praised for the care he showed his teammates in the wake of the heartbreaking one-point loss. “He gets an enormous amount of credit, but I still think he’s played an undervalued part in the impact he has on our group, he’s just been really special.”
Veteran Nick Haynes looks set to depart for a new club but the Giants secured the signatures of trio Harry Himmelberg, Jake Riccardi and Lachie Ash during the season, while Kingsley confirmed former captain Callan Ward would play on again in 2024.
