Koroit’s Talor Byrne has just missed out on making his senior AFL debut in the opening game of the season.
Byrne has been named as Carlton’s first emergency for their clash against Sydney.
Byrne hasn’t missed out altogether on the opening game build-up though, travelling with the team to Sydney in case he is needed if a late withdrawal happens.
Byrne has impressed the Blues during his first pre-season, including kicking three goals in a practice match against the Brisbane Lions.
The talented small forward was picked at number 45 in the 2025 draft.
