No Tarrant or Gibcus but Miller lost his spot to Young,
Millers next game was KPF ruck back up when Nank got injured Round 5.
He's good KPD depth and with Balta fwd, opens the door a bit

I really don't like PRE posters rationalising the AFL's typical machinations. The high heat/humidity game in Rd. zero against Dimma's Suns followed by a 5 day break to Caroon fixture is so obviously designed to intend dispatching any revival hopes for this club on an immediate downward spiral. They cannot stand the very idea that we may become a competitor again,maybe scuppering or harming their plans for the handful of teams they'd like to win the flag in '24. An inpredictable RFC won at least 2 more flags than was ever even tolerable for Gil and his honchos, hence the appointment of Shocking after thrashing the Moggies to end our dynasty with puerile rule changes. Not much has changed.
Can't you just see the AFL site headlines/match report/media articles if Dimma's new mob beat us in the time-slot/climate that is clearly advantageous to them.
Don't try put lipstick on a pig. That fixture is rigged for a clearly intended outcome IMHO. It should never have been devised ... whether we can somehow cope with it or not.
May from the VFL also looked more than comfortable in the role in the match sims i watched
Looks completely different from last year. A year old but still a baby at 19, however very competitive and has excellent foot skills.
.....good one leon.
I'm not quite as cynical about the fixture, but I must admit to thinking the short break has played a significant role in Lynch not travelling up for opening round.
If that's the case, the fixture will play a material role in the outcome of that game, because we will have to find 3–4 goals from another source.
The good news is the fixture has also caused Weitering to miss the first 4 rounds
Is it too late to pre list Archie May? He seems be the most promising tall.
I’m a massive fan but let him earn his stripes in the VFL first.
Not too late. I'm a fan too. Wonder if he will play on Sunday? He played in last year's match sim and looked good.
Bigger, faster and hits harder than Jake the snake Stringer.
Round zero..a new concept. I don't love it but, RFC vs GCS 13th vs 15th.
At this stage I'll take that over the Blues opponent. Grand finalist in Brizbane. Even hotter than the Goldie. I rate our chances in both Round 0 and 1. I think we badly underachieved in 23. Blues overachieved.
5 day break b/n 0 & 1 . 10 day break between 1 &2. ..Clubs can manage.
Ever since i saw the GC fixture, i have always thought that game has us being screwed by the umps written all over it. Our naysayers on that topic tell us it's the coaching/gameplan causing it, we are about to find out with GC this yr & i reckon we know which way it'll go.
with 7 periods of play, he'll play the 5th-7th with the other VFL guys. Maybe the 4th as well if we want to manage one of the snr guys.
Sure they can manage, i just think it's farcical we have Clubs "resting" players for the 1st game of the season due to the fixture.
I hope like the blazes we tear them a new opening round.
