I don't think so. Looks like we view him as a forward who can relieve in the ruck if need be. Direct back up to Lobb unless we go with Darcy/Hannan/wtf Bevo decides.

Re: Team, Round 1 2023
So no Maclean or Crozier and Bruce plays are the surprises for me. West not even an emergency

Re: Team, Round 1 2023
Surprised to see Darcy and Bruce named.
No McLean either who sounded like had a ripping preseason.
JJ and Hannan become the "small" forwards.
Game on.

Re: Team, Round 1 2023
Darcy & Bruce as the swingers. I like that flexibility to play either at either end based on match ups.
Toby as the sub.

Toby not in the 22 is a surprise especially behind Hannan.

Didn't Hannan play one of his better games against Melbourne?

Geez, we've gone in tall. Hopefully we can run the game out well.

Re: Team, Round 1 2023
The average height of our 22 is a whopping 190.6cm. This must the tallest team in AFL history.
Our average age is 27 years and 3 months with 8 players 30+. Probably the oldest team our club has ever fielded.

I am assuming yes.
Having said that, he didn't play well against North.
