    This comes from Emma Quayle's top 25:

    ZAK JONES (Dand. Stingrays, 183cm, 76kg)

    GEORGE HEWETT (North Adelaide, 185cm, 74kg)

    The visual perception from the photo is that Hewett is a good deal bigger than Jones in both height and weight. Given his age, I think George will end up close to JPK size.

    JPK is something like 96kg

    my guess is Georgie Boy will end up more like 83 to 87kg max !

    Luke Parker "Manchild" is 183cm and built like a small truck and only 86kg

    JPK is 188cm and 96 kgs. Not many of that height can carry 96 kilos. But I do think George will be something like 188 cm and around 90 kgs. Remember, he's not even 18 yet. I don't know when they take the official measurements for the website, but it will be interesting to see what both Zak and George come in at.

    Following up on this post, look how much taller and larger frame George has compared to Zak, and George is almost a year younger. This is just off the Swans' website:

    I think George is going to be the big bodied midfielder some think we need to compete with the likes of Freo. I wasn't too concerned, but this ends the debate IMO.

    A person might 'catch' a H/B as you say and rightly so as a mark is only on a kick. But normally I would say he/she took the H/B or call it a take not a catch.

    In the run of play you might 'take' the handball, but in a drill like that, I think 'catch' is more appropriate.

    why oh why won't the site give us a vid? I just want to see them move in HD (well better than the grainy low res youtube vids). And a 30 sec interview with the new kids. I know two of them did a mini text interview. I just want to see how they carry themselves etc. Nackers seemed pretty good in his pre draft interview/highlights tape.
