After our summer signings I passed comment on the (lack of) height in our signings.



Marriott, Waghorn, Holmes, Jozefzoon, Wilson and Mount, all of whom are between 5' 6 and 5' 10.



Last night, my mind wandered to the up and coming players from the Academy who may be on the verge of making the senior squad. I looked up the following........



Luke Thomas 5’ 8

Jayden Mitchell Lawson 5’ 6

Kellan Gordon 5’ 10.5

Kyle McAllister 5’ 9

Timi Max Elsnik 5’ 10

Cameron Creswell 5’10

Calum McDonald height seems to be unknown but he doesn’t look tall. The same applies to Louie Sibley and Lee Buchanan.



Are the days of the 6' 3 plus player going/gone or are we barking up the wrong tree?
