GWS could be without another star forward for Thursday's clash with GWS, with the Giants to potentially blood new talent if injuries and the AFL Tribunal don't fall in favour of the New South Wales side.
The Giants will challenge one-game suspensions for Toby Greene and Jesse Hogan, who were charged with rough conduct and striking respectively from Round 6.
The pair will learn their fate on Tuesday evening at the Tribunal, with their potential absences compounded given fellow forward Brent Daniels is reportedly in doubt for the Anzac Day game.
According to SEN's Sam Edmund, Daniels is dealing with a knee issue sustained in last Saturday's loss to Carlton, with the energetic small forward a chance to miss Round 7.
Brent Daniels in doubt for GWS this week after copping a knock to the knee against Carlton. Amazing how quickly things can conspire against you. Greene & Hogan facing bans, Sam Taylor still in concussion protocols and Coniglio sidelined. GWS have Lions on Thu & then Swans at SCG.

Should the Giants be without all three forwards, coach Adam Kinglsey could look toward a debutant for Round 7, with a number of budding options on offer.
Fringe tall Max Gruzewski has been a key piece of the club's VFL side since being drafted in 2022, while fellow second-year half-forward Darcy Jones could be in line for his maiden match.
The likes of Toby McMullin, Conor Stone, Ryan Angwin and Lachie Keeffe are also likely to be in the selection mix to help bolster's Kingsley's attack.
The Giants will name their squad on Wednesday evening ahead of their clash with Brisbane at Manuka Oval the following night.
