Lions co-captain Harris Andrews’ eagerness to return from suspension has made him an even tougher opponent to deal with at training, but it has given off-season Brisbane recruit Oscar Allen the stern initiation he was chasing.
Andrews has one game of a three-week ban remaining, meaning he will miss another match on Thursday night when the Lions host Collingwood at the Gabba.
However, that hasn’t stopped the All-Australian defender contributing on the training paddock, and he hasn’t shied away from pushing former West Coast forward Allen to his limits.
