    Rosman is 194cm and Smith is 188cm - that's a fair difference

    Sorry Pollyanna I was thinking more their style rather than height but nice to know he has him covered by 6 cm or almost 2 1/2 inches in my world.

    looking at the end of the number reveal video, Rosman already has very broad shoulders and well developed lats.  He looks like he's going to be a much bigger more powerful specimen than Isaac Smith when he fully develops.

    6 cm is a fair height on an opponent and a big advantage l hope he can use his  speed , stamina  and athletic ability  to the maximum in his game.

    Probably more along the lines of Brander but faster (and better I hope)

    Hope to hear the crowd yelling "Rozzie!!!!" at the MCG in the not too distant future.

    If we’re aiming for Isaac Smith why not aim a little higher? And a big physical wingman who took time to learn his craft (as Rosman will) with 99 games in the reserves?

    Let’s see if we can make him the next Dipper

    Good in theory, but the way the VFL is run these days, it might take him 6 years to reach 99 games if he were to play in every available game.

    I believe you mean the VFL/East Coast Second-Tier Men’s Competition! 15 games against half decent opposition might be optimistic

    Hes nothing like Isaac Smith, no idea why people are comparing them

    Unless Isaac Smith is a 194cm athletic beast with a huge leap?

    They’re both tall athletic left footed wingmen. Obviously a lot of differences too but I’m fine with people daring to dream.

    Who?

    West Coast player recruited as a key forward but couldn't get a gig with Kennedy and Darling there, so was reinvented as a 195cm winger given his endurance. Played a few games this year without setting the world on fire.

    It might be terrific to have a Dipper-type but I think Rosman might also have too many smarts to be the second coming?

    I don’t get the Isaac Smith reference either. Never seen Smith consistently take marks like that, which was the clear standout of Rosman’s highlight clips. As for his prospects, he looks good on paper but let’s see I guess.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
