This is true, I reckon the back six puzzle is super interesting. If all fit and form willing you can't have Balta, Gibcus, Young, Grimes, Broad, Vlastuin, Brown and Trezise.

There's four spots for eight if you take it as a given that Short and Rioli are the other two. And if you take the six out of the seven above, then you are slow.

Does Gibcus go third tall forward? It's looking more and more so that he gets trialed there. That's why I like a rotation on a back flank, wing, half-forward Short, Rioli and Baker. That leaves 7 of Young, Grimes, Broad, Vlastuin, Balta, Brown and Trezise fighting for 5 spots (+ the one small, giving six backs) or injury cover.

I think the days of Marlion and Kmac on the wings are gone. Yze will want kickers. I can't see it with the incumbents. The leftovers of Banks and Brown should be aiming for that other wing.

Imagine Banks, Brown, Short, Rioli and Baker on the wings. Now you have some serious kicking skills.

The jigsaw doesn't fit right. Yze has some work.
It's a back seven, with one on the bench, but yeah, we have an oversupply of candidates. Together with Yeezy's comments today and Balta training forward, that's why I hope and expect Noah will start forward. Young and Gibcus back (too much to ask of Godcus to come back and play forward), along with the old heads Grimes, Broad and Floss, and two of The Prince, Short and Bakes. That's the way I think we'll start, which means Brown and Trezise start in the VFL if all fit.

The tough call will come if Grimes struggles again and the youngsters are banging the door down.
 
Just watched his presser. And I’m sold. Not sure how good a coach he’ll be, and that’ll ultimately be what he is judged on, but he’s definitely authentic when he speaks. And I *smile* like him a lot

I got feeling we could see a few senior players in the vfl next season there be no favourites like there has been last couple of years.

Good presser by Oozo. Liked how he said he's allowed the young kids drive the new style and terminology with the older blokes at training. Giving them ownership of the new era.

How's that going to go down with likes of BigV, Grimes and Prestia??
I wouldn't be letting none of our kids free rein. They need to prove themselves.
We need Cumberland Ross Banks Brown and Bauer to make a statement next year otherwise we going to go through a really shiit period.

If Brown has a good pre season he is in our best 22. Too talented for VFL football.

On with Richo and McClure on 3aw shortly
Speaks well Ooze. It's like he's been at the club for 5 years already. Ooze's dad and older bro always Tiger fans. Newy calls him 'Mad Dog'.

What's McClure going to say 'Dusty is going to GC next year?" And Richo 'it looked like point'????
Sam Noclue just casting out the fishing rod to Ooze. Unless Duz signs up quick with us, Ooze is gonna get a headache getting asked this question every time.

Spot on. The burnout factor was high within Dimma's sweat shop gamestyle.

Jnr started to suffer from it last year too.

That said when chaos & pressure was king it netted 3 flags.

Glad we've moved on from it though. The rule changes :cautious: required a much needed change of direction.
Most Likely burnt out George

I reckon Dustin is staying at the RFC hes invested well and truly certainly from early vision this year.

Interesting that Dustins best run of form post 2020 came after Hardwick had gone.

I cant see the greatest footballer in the history of the RFC playing out a couple of pointless seasons at the GC..... But thats just me.
