Not sure what they claim the heights, but our website lists BigH as shorter than both TDK and Pitto, do you think?

Maybe BigH is shrinking as he gets older, I think he is the older twin!

Harry’s official height has dropped from 203cm to 200cm over the last couple of seasons ?

Watch the interview with Ben and Harry again; Harry has 4-5cm on Ben.

Agree Harry looks slightly taller and a bit wider, about the only thing shrinking on Harry is his hairline.

Harry was up to 205 cm at one point i thought. There was a running joke on the Carlton website about it.

Either way, i wouldn't worry about it.
They spoke to Aaron Sandilands about his height once and he said he hadn't been measured in a decade and had no idea what it actually was and didn't seem to trust the clubs existing measurements.

I suspect the old eye test is better than the research test in most of these situations.

In the video he is, but in the photo Ben looks taller ?

Jees the inclusions are underwhelming on last weeks 2nds game.  Binns was far and away the best of them and it was his worst game for the year, Durds was busy-ish but not impactful and Marchy and Mots stank it up.  On the strength of last week I couldn't contemplate rewarding any of them other than Binns, and that's more on body of work than that performance.

Just looking at Essendon's tall forwards suggests to me that Marchy might be a chance, but I can't see Boyd missing out.

We have been going with eight defenders but one of them is Cincotta in his midfield role and that won't change.

Binns for Fantasia would be close to like for like.  That would probably see Carroll as the sub again and reward him for his performance in the Magoos.  If Carroll is in the 22, I suspect that Motlop will get the sub role over Binns.

Durdin for Fantasia... no surprises there.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Problem is if Langford pulls out. We end up too heavy.
