Really interesting to see our push in past few years for height, speed and skills with adaptability.

Guys like Fitzpatrick, Watts, Jurrah, Martin, Davis are all super quick and tall. Could be a pretty frightening side to match up on in a few years.

OUR TALLS.....

Gawn 208

Spencer 203

Fitzpatrick 200

Martin 198

Jamar 198

Watts 196

Cook 196

Warnock 194

McDonald 194

Newton 193

Frawley 193

Rivers 192

Morton 192

Dunn 192

Davis 192

Bate 192

Garland 191

Howe 190

Gysberts 190

    There is an "average height of a premiership player" and I'm pretty sure we were well under that when Bailey came on board.

    Makes sense too.

    Wasn't the only thing we were under when Bailey came on board

    Who would win in a race???? Love to line them all up and see who would win. Steph Martin, Jack Watts and Chip Frawley (after his run agaist Jetta) would be up there.

    Gawn could still get bigger......

    All of a sudden our list has become massive. We have been a small team for a long while now, and while we have had some talls come and go, they have often been your Holland type bigs who are big but also slow. We now have talls that can run.... scary thought.

    So roughly half of our senior list is 190cm or taller. With Viney on board we should be putting together some pretty effective defensive zones down the track especially as the new recruits have the mobility and speed.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
