Good to see JON and Cass also put on a bit of bulk.

Where did Sugar's extra 4kgs come from at his age?! ???

[Fishfinger]

Good to see no players are shorter than they were last season.

Craig McRae and David King were specific at the Club80 night that JON is still growing and is now taller than 188.  I thought 190 was mentioned.

The fact that he is growing is why his stress fractures have taken so long to heal.  Apparently bones will only heal or grow, not do both.

Yeah I heard the number 190cm or 190cm + can't remember which

[Ramps]

Im impressed with the efforts of the clever, jon, cass and tambo. We need clever to play one of the key position posts- he just has to come along for us to become a good side.

JON is hard to tell because he's still slim which makes him look tall like a beanpole. Next time I'm at training I'll have a look if he is slightly taller than Joel or Casserly who are listed at the same height as JON.

I'm surprised Foley is listed as having lost 3kgs since last year. In real life he looks far bigger across the chest and shoulders this year. 

[Mr Magic]

I think Meyer's put on 6kgs, from a paltry 70kgs to a scrawny 76kgs..

Yep Magic since his first year he's put on 6kgs but he was listed as 76kgs last year too.

Bit of a worry. he's not going to have much impact if he can't put on weight.

From the AFL Record 2007 season preview:

35. White          80kg (+2)

The RFC site has Whitey gaining 4kgs over summer...

Matt White – Musashi Report

Progress: His results have been very impressive.  At the end of last season, Matt weighed 76kg.  He is now holding his weight at 80kg, while also experiencing a significant reduction in his body fat levels.  He has also seen impressive gains in all of his strength tests.

but he still has a long way to go to make it as a player, still not convinced about him

we are only the 11th youngest team in the AFL ...

i thought we would be at least 14th, 13th youngest !

Our problem is list balance. The age thing is skewed for us with so many old and young guys and not many blokes in the middle footy-age bracket.

In any case you want the best list no matter what average age your list is. Bottom sides like the Hawks get their jollies claiming they have the youngest list. The Swans have one of the oldest lists while the Eagles have one of the youngest. Both played in the past 2 GFs with a flag a piece.
