A Magpies utility has suddenly become the feel-good story of grand final week, earning a recall for the injured Daniel McStay.
Frampton played the most recent of his 15 games this season in round 24 but has been an emergency through the finals. The West Australian trained with the Magpies’ “A” team at training this week in a sign he was firmly in contention to face the Lions.Credit:McRae said Frampton will give the Magpies added versatility, given he can play in defence, up forward and in the ruck.“I am comfortable to say to the footy world that Billy Frampton will play. He gets an opportunity to come in.
“If Bill plays back, we can move Howey [Jeremy Howe] forward, and we have shown that card before. And also in the ruck – if we want to play Mason a little bit more forward, we can play Bill in the ruck. So, normally, it is one in, one out, but, in this case, we have some flexibility.”Vice-captain Taylor Adams, who missed the preliminary final because of a hamstring strain, has also been ruled out of the sport’s showcase event.
