Given both King & Heath are named Max yours is certainly one of the more confusing posts on this forum aussierulesrules

Touché!

The Max that looks clearly taller of the two and significantly taller than the 201cm listed Roma. Especially across the top of the shoulders.



He was listed at 204cm in more than one place in his draft year. Was surprised to see him listed at 202cm once he came to us.

All reports are Max is in great form and progressing extremely well.

Hopefully in the side ASAP.

RTB's management of our young talent has been second to none so far.

Yes he was. It was mentioned that he was a couple of centremetres taller than his twin

He sure as hell looks it here. Especially across the top of the shoulders.

That's pretty impressive Heath is the same height as King, seeing as his head is about 10cm shorter

Yep boofheads don't help your footy at all. Unless they have a good footy brain, a brain shaped like a footy fits more readily in a boofhead.

Batch's Review: Bytel goes big, second-gamer's defining moment

Reading the review of the game and there are lots of positives; Peris sounds like he would suit Ross Lyon with his speed and endurance, the comment that the backline is always under a little less pressure with him chasing up the field is what we’re seeing from Seb Ross and Hill to a tee in the 1’s. He must be close to getting a game off the back of this alone, even if he doesn’t get heaps of the pill. If he can pressure like any of Hill, Seb or Byrnes then he’d possibly come in if any one of them went down.

The Moose kicking 5 and playing with a lot of aggression as a forward is encouraging and will likely get a debut this year with that pressure and results. RoMa 2.0???

Bytel basically leading the way and being the man carrying the midfield, worked through a tag, should come back this week. Becoming what we were promised.

But for me, the best bit was this.






BIG JIM. Rag dolling Essendon pillocks who were trying to start some tough stuff on our midfielder who was controlling the game. “Not condoning putting him to the ground”, relax Jake, this is a PC Police free zone, say it how it is. Big James Van Es is going to be a take-no-shit, big dog defender.

Obviously Ross was reading this thread, since it is one of the finest in the land, and he read my post ...."BATCH GET IN HERE NOW !!!!! Where's the bloody review ".

 

[bergholt]

Interesting to hear Highmore is playing key back these days

King wins because he has a bigger head.

Tbh if Batch wasn’t going to do them we might as well sack him

 

[drawza]

The expectation for Sandringham is linked to the injuries of St Kilda, if the Saints have the amount of injuries we have at the moment then the expectation isn’t as high. having said that the win on Sunday was amazing and topped a great week for both St Kilda and Sandringham.

Enjoy a snap of Peris tackling

Really?

 

[saintmike65]

De Koning is better, but he should be. He’s 3yrs 4months older.

I have no problem having them both on the list, but not at the numbers being bandied about.

De Koning is about to sign an extension at Carlton!

He’s a brutal tackler, despite his small frame.

Both Max’s are 204cm

 

[saintmike65]

Still a work in progress, but miles advanced on last season.

Less physical than Van Es, but was very good in the air, particularly when intercepting. A bit of a lackadaisical kicking style, which can lead to some sloppy disposals, but there’s a bit to work with.

Moves well.

Adams more the 3rd tall type..Van Es a future key defender with his power & speed!

 

[saintmike65]

Going to be interesting.

Might be the first time the sub isn't activated and we just keep playing with the 22 we have

I'd go Sharman but Peris makes sense coming on when everyone us tired and just running the length of the field

I’d love Peris..his speed & tenacity could be very handy late in a game!

 

[Barrels]

Thank all that is holy.

A 200-odd cm “3rd tall”? Sign me up.
