Mirkov is progressing very nicely and is far from being “miles off it”.
The plan is for him to break into the AFL team this season, but probably in the latter half of the season. To a certain extent, that will depend on our other rucks staying fit and the development of Harry Lemmey; a ruck/key forward.
The change to the sub rule may encourage more clubs to have two genuine rucks in the 23. A fresh De Koning coming on late in the third quarter could create havoc. Alternatively, subbing Pitto off at 3/4 time to add run could be advantageous.
I’d be playing Pitto and De Koning (and Jack) in the 22 to start with. If Mirkov continues to improve, I’d bring him in to give Pitto a break. I’m not sure that you could have Mirkov and Pitto in the 22.
