Michael Hurley, but he's only 193cm. David Neitz, who I thought was well taller than 191.

Dustin Fletcher debuted in R2 when he was 17 and 11 months, but he was 198 so we can cut him some slack.

Weitering 196 R1 debut but it was for Carlton and as Jack likes to point out, he is a back pocket player. But I think Gibbo starts there too.

Butkus looks like he could have stepped out of 1917. Think Grimes had a similar style at one stage. Bodes well.....

Josh Shelby.

Can't wait to see the lad. Debuting in round 1 is an amazing effort. Teenagers are a dying breed in our game. Always get excited to see them.

I played juniors with Dave Neitz and he was always the same height as me and I'm 194 :))

Just wikied him and yep he's down as 193.
