Craig Bradley was the last I remember though Brad Green I believe was a top grade junior cricketer. 

Brad Green was a gun cricketer.  I believe he represented Australia at an underage level, might even have been captain.  I played a game of schoolboys cricket against him in College and he hit about 180 odd.  Crushing everything out of the middle.

He also took a hanger on me in Under 18s footy.  If he didn't end up at the Dees I would have hated him I reckon!

    I'd go with "Lukes" Guy Walker

    Hehe. No one got behind my Chew-Baker campaign for our wild red-headed recruit Oskar but I certainly endorse Lukes for this random new guy on our list. Maybe they can form a little crew together with CP5-O and Clayton 'hands-solo' to track down Princess Lumumba.

    Yes but in those days the average height of the male population was about 165cm.

    Yeah, Steyn is from the stone age. I picked a selection from various era's. You said 184 was to short to be much of a fast bowler. Do you reckon any of those mentioned wouldn't be as effective now? 

    As far as I know 160kph hasn’t changed since the early 00s.

    So you're saying that the bowling speed of a male bowler is a function of a bowlers height relative to the average height of males in that era?

    As Nasher said - 160 kph is 160 kph whenever the ball is bowled and by whoever bowls it.

    Far too old for the rookie list I believe.

    Tannishtha Chatterjee is 1.65m tall and she’s wearing an 8cm heal in the above photo. Lee’s still about 14cm taller in the image which would make him 1.87cm in total.

    Where's his hands? That would make him stand taller

    Good to see the recruiting staff still thinking outside the box.

    I hope they continue to follow Will Sutherland's cricket career. He was an absolute weapon as a junior.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
