Callum Mills: Sydney rule out captain from grand final contention amid hamstring recovery
Sydney will resist the urge to rush back skipper Callum Mills for Saturday’s grand final, with the club on Wednesday ruling out an unlikely return.
Mills trained on Wednesday morning in a bid to test his fitness following a hamstring strain at training a fortnight ago.
But just hours later, the Swans made the call to put a line through the 27-year-old.
“Mills trained this morning and after taking everything into consideration a joint decision was made by the club’s medical staff and the coaches to rule him out,” a Swans statement said.
It’s a tough blow for the 2022 All-Australian, who has played in losing grand finals in 2016 and 2022 without tasting the ultimate success.
