I'd think Gardiner is battling Payne/Rayner for the 2nd/3rd tall spots personally

Surely Rayners not playing 3rd tall is he? He's going to be seriously undersized. The practice game didn't give much away given the Cats forward line was so short. But we should know more when teams drop tomorrow, as Port will likely play Dixon, Marshall and Georgiades. Brisbane could really struggle against tall forward lines this year without Adams.

Same sort of size as Rampe, Doedee, Sicily, Jonas or Ryan who've all done fine in that role and often as 2nd tall even.

He's a very solid boy and should be fine against most in the role. Especially as Payne and Andrews are very big so unlikely he has to play 2nd tall often.

Could be four talls if Finlayson is fit.
