Looks like he's put on a couple of kegs in muscle. Jeez isn't Caleb a solid little nugget! His arms are as big as his head

Wonder if Dale has grown since we drafted him. Wouldn't surprise me.

Will they update all the measurements on the website or is that too much to hope for?

I'm pretty sure he would've grown. He looked like he'd barely hit puberty when he came to the club and I think someone was saying on here that his dad had a very late growth spurt.

 

[King Bont]

Agreed.

By putting up Murph Im just saying that some guys are ectomorphs and just wont get as big as other blokes and the muscle they do put on will come more slowly, no matter what they do. But if they are good enough, they can still play. And Unless Declan IS growing as we speak, which would account for his slight muscles, he looks like a classic ecto to me.

As an aside, I dont think shoulder width of 'frame' is much of an indicator of anything except bones - Im super wide across the shoulders and a classic ectomorph (slight muscles).

Whereas Jake stringer, for example, is narrow across the shoulders, but built like a brick shithouse. Puts on muscle just thinking about the gym, I expect. Another similarity with Ablett senior who had that relatively narrow frame but super dense muscles layered on top.

Stringer has the Ablett Sr build

He's definitely put on some size. From some angles, his frame is actually starting to look very Bont-like, or is that just me?

 

[bontshow]

Murphy is a lot bigger now than he was when he started. Hamilton is starting from the same point Murphy was and needs to get to the same point as Murphy has. Now's the time to get stuck in to it

It's not just hamiltons upper body either. No power base from the lower body at all. Dude has work to do.

Separated at birth - Declan Hamilton and Mr.Bean

So any one know what players are tearing it up? Anyone out of shape? In particular how are the 2014 draftees going?

i heard they are tearing up the track and the grass
may need confirmation

just saw the most recent training update video. Mmm, Tom Boyd's shed a few. Doubt the club will even mention that in their videos. Keep it real low key but he is already looking lighter and fitter

Until he crashes a pack of 5 players and takes the mark

 

[BrisDog]

T Boyd has also ditched the mo, and is sporting a bouffant style haircut - good early signs

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Hamling looks like he's put on a bit of size too from the training vid.

I reckon Webb has bulked up a bit as well

 

[Doggy Dan]

I'd rather a skinny kid who can play than a bulky kid who can't. I think Deccers has some great footy smarts and he is a real leader out on the ground. I think he'll make the grade.

Not to mention that opposition VFL teams are already putting the time in to curb his influence.

 

[Pugz89]

Not sure if it's relevant to this but I love how active the Dogs are becoming within the community. This is a great initiative and I'll be heading down for sure!

Yeah Webb looks like he'll end up a pretty big unit

Libba looked so ginger running in those highlights! Heard his rehab is going well but gee I can't say that filled me with a lot of confidence

Could have done a massive session during the week?
