BRISBANE Lion Brent Staker will not get a farewell match after being injured in the warm-up of Saturday's game against the Western Bulldogs.

Staker hurt his hamstring in the warm-up and has been replaced by Zac O'Brien, who will start as the sub.

Sadly it typifies the injury-riddled career of the popular 31-year-old.
