    He looked tall on the weekend, the equal of Buku who is listed as 189cm. The eyeball test puts him well above 182cm.

            Grown in between GVGjr and Mofra seeing him?

                Can't argue with that. Then we need to mid season draft him. Can play big and small. We need that flexible type on the list.

                  He was listed at Brisbane as 182cm, when he was drafted. That is a few years ago now.

                    Yeah I was the one that pointed that out - twice!

                    GVGjr reckons he looks more like 182cm, Mofra reckons he looks more like 189cm. Someone is wrong, his listed measurements are beside the point for my post that you quoted. Plus I'm just joking.

                      Dunkley completed a VFL pre-season with Footscray and is averaging 18.5 disposals, eight tackles, 4.5 clearances, 1.3 goals and 123 SuperCoach points as a 19-year-old for Gippsland Power.

                      The hard worker, and brother of premiership Dog Josh, is a being considered by some clubs.
                      Should we be looking at him?

                        The Bulldogs website "VFL Players" page lists RW as 183 cm.

                          What's your guess Smads - you would have seen more of him than anybody else on here.

                            I'd be surprised if he is 189cm but 183 to 185cm is more believable to me.

                            Either way, he is better suited as a running defender more than playing tall and we do have an abundance of them already.

                            I quite like him as a player though and thought he could be a rookie list candidate last year.

                              He's a 19yo playing against 17 & 18yo's. He should have some very good NAB League numbers, so I'm not too taken on them alone. I wonder why he chose or was told to play NABL and not VFL? And his kicking would want to be elite, and quick by foot. Another hard working, mid paced, flawed kick midfielder doesn't do it for me.

                                Can he kick better than the rest of his family?
