An injury-interrupted 2023 restricted Taberner to just four games in 2023. The key forward underwent back surgery after the Club’s round four clash with the Adelaide Crows, resulting in Taberner missing the rest of the season. The 30-year-old looks to make his return to the AFL side in 2024 and has progressed well throughout the pre-season, providing leadership to young key forwards Jye Amiss and Josh Treacy.
