I call BS. He's heavier than that at 188cm surely90kgs? Is that all?

He thought they asked him to give his target weight.
I remember watching him in the VFL game where he was probably BOG.
I actually didn't know who he was at the time and I just thought (by looks alone) that he looked like an absolute monster out there.
Kinda reminded me of when Mummy was first running around in the VFL before he was on our list... He just looked much bigger than the others on the ground and it stood out.
Then I found out he was 18 years old lol.

Seems like it's all just estimates before the official stats go up - given they don't have Wiltshire's weight, and Stevens had his weight on Rookie me as 101kg yet now they have him as 90.
We'll know all the official stats when they've done the new team photos, IMO
I don’t think the real stats ever actually go on the website. I remember a former player saying the social media/website team just ask them their height and weight, and some players just completely make it up.
Wow that explains a lot. Explains how Nick Daicos is listed as over 6ft at 184cm, but he's only an inch taller (at most) than his 5'10 brother at 178cm and 4 inches shorter than Pendlebury at 191cm.
League would be littered with examples of false data if this is true. Examples below:

Yep. I believe Rookie Me Central website was updated with their measurements from the draft combine, which has Stevens at 100kg.

League would be littered with examples of false data if this is true. Examples below:
I remember a story a few years back, where McGovern & Fyfe where still listed as 191cm, but both had clearly grown past that. Fyfe even refers to himself as a '195cm midfielder'.
Not sure how they do it these days, but certainly back then after the first year or two they either stopped updating the player bios, or let the players do it themselves.
For instance, JHF is listed as 97kgs. He's a big, powerful kid for sure, but at 185cm, I'm not sure he's that big.

Pretty amazing the amount of footballers that are still growing taller past 18!
Anything beyond draft camp would have to be taken with a massive grain of salt.

Good theory.
Say your a few cms shorter hoping to get a smaller opponent.
Add a few centimetres to become a big bodied midfielder

Team Captain
He'll do whatever it takes to get himself up to AFL standard - outstanding character.
Premiership captain, 3x premiership player, All Australian, B&F. Not setting the bar too high there
.What will help him is I think he will be a CS favourite. I remember CS raving about Ben Cunnington every chance he got. George seems like that kind of player. It might help him get games early.
Yeah, CS likes blokes like this guy, and blokes like Atkins. They will do the dirty work.Premiership captain, 3x premiership player, All Australian, B&F. Not setting the bar too high there

Does George look like he would be a bit of a cheeky. prankster type of bloke?
Look at that face. I think that he may be one of the really interesting characters around the club.

He will be a disciplined hardworker type. Leadership type, will set examples on others.
Was a senior coach (bush leagues) when he was recovering from his ACL.
