    Gee I would hate to talk it up too much but it's a dream scenario. For a kid who admittedly gave footy another crack because of his Mum, to be making his debut against the Club he cheered for, playing juniors for Geelong Falcons and debuting on Mother's Day, there is a sense of magical timing about this. The planets have aligned for sure. Let's hope he does well, and has a long successful career with the Bloods.
    Add Cobden Auskick kids playing at half-time.

      That's pretty damn amazing if you were to ask me. Nobody has asked me though, so I'll just say it here. Amazing.

        What is not known yet is whether the Rohans will again turn up to Skilled Stadium, as they did to Blacktown, wearing their Ronald McDonald-style wigs, to match the locks of the 18-year-old.

        When asked if they had worn them to Blacktown, Rohan said at the time: ''Yeah, it's true, they had the wigs on. ''They just thought they might start something up just having those wigs on. It was pretty good, and after spending more than 12 hours getting here, they should be allowed to do whatever they wanted to.''

        It looks like his sponsoship is all sewn up.. Red Rooster or Maccas ?

          For Rohan, persistence has paid off



          Top Draft Pick Set for Debut



          Interesting to see what height he ends up, 190cm is a just a bit short for a key post....

            Ah, but he is quick. He is quick, he thinks quickly and can twist out of reach on the move so tackles become less effective. For those of you who haven't seen him in action I hope that all the planets align and he shows you what he can do. From a Ressie follower I can assure you that he is pretty good. Now just remember to bounce the bloody thing Red.

              In the article it says he's grown 5 cms since he got to Sydney, I'm pretty sure he measured at 190 cms around draft time. He certainly looks taller than 190 cms in person.
              I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
              We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                Red Hair makes you look taller and faster, it's like painting flames on the side of a car.... Well that's my theory..... maybe not a good one. Ryan Fitzgerald grew 30cm after the age of 18. He kicked 5 goals on debut

                    ''I walk past his room a fair bit and I'd put my name up on his [magnetic team] board,'' Rohan said. ''He takes it down, I keep putting it up, he takes it down. I think he's got sick of me and put me in this week.''
                    My favourite bit lol - I hope he shows the excitement i've seen in reserves!!

                      Lol . If he turns out to be a prolific ball-winner, perhaps we should call him "magnet"?

                      Rohan even volunteered to tag Cats champion Gary Ablett
                      Love the enthusiasm!
