RCD on his first hitout:“It was pretty quick, and very heavily contested but it was a great hit-out,” he said.
“Surprisingly enough, I didn’t have many nerves, I was just really excited to get out there, and just a great experience and I’m very glad I did it.
“(My focus was) just to play my role, making sure I work offensively just as hard as I work defensively, and that was something I put a lot of emphasis on out there.”
“(The biggest challenge was) not being the biggest out there,” he said.
“There’s some pretty big bodies out there and they’re smashing and crashing in the pack, so that was pretty challenging and something I had to adapt to pretty quick.”
“I’ve certainly got a lot fitter and a lot bigger over my time at the Tigers, it’s been a really good pre-season, hopefully I can carry some of that form into the main season,” he said.
“Everyone aspires to play (senior football), but if I can ply my craft through the VFL that’s something I’ll do, just making sure I get better each time,” he said.
