I'm not so sure about the height and weight figures on the roster sites. Goodes is now listed at 191 cm. I've seen him listed as high as 194 in previous years.
I wouldn't make too much about a centimeter or 2 as for defining a KPP, especially when it comes to younger players. They still can grow a bit up to 22 yo. Lockyer is listed at 191 cm, 91 kg. He has a fairly big frame and is likely to get close to the 100 kg mark, as Grundy is. If he has he ability, I don't think size will prevent him from holding down a key position spot. Josh Gibson is 189, Dale Morris is 190, Craig Bolton was 190 also I believe. Some of the best KPDs around are 192 cm, Richards, McFarlane and Matt Scralett. I don't think being 1 cm shorter would have changed much.
