That struggle isn't due to height...

You're forgetting Plowman, Jaksch and White, but I agree that we need to replenish in the next 3 drafts.


I didn't forget anyone, I mentioned Jaksch...

As for White, he played against the Tigers (with Jamo, Rowe & Weitering), so how does he replace Jamo & Rowe?

And Plowman, at his size, seems more like the logical replacement for White.

We're asking for it if we want to play 4 talls in defence again this year without a clear tactical reason.

And for those lamenting one player of those I listed, I'm just listing the depth chart. The depth isn't great, but it's not awful either, though it's very thin for defenders that can play on developed 196+ key forwards, but we drafted two such players last off-season and tried to trade in another, so it's not going unnoticed.

As for Plowman, the official AFL stats have him at 193.

So, just a few centimetres shorter than our premier midfielder. Sounds reasonable for a tall defender.

There's more to it than height, I'm just pointing out he's in an acceptable range.

Rance is no giant either.

For me, full back should be around 195-197, centre half slightly less is acceptable. If I wasn't at work I'd dig up some stats.

Looking at that I'd say Daisy for Buckley will be the only change
