How tall is Tom?

[Freagle]

Seriously...there’s now way he’s 6’4”. Brad Parker is 193cm apparently, and Tom is towering over him in this pic.

I’m thinking more like 6’6”?

Yes I know...sweating the important things this morning rather than working!

I do not know how tall Tom is

All I know is at the moment he is standing taller than any other player in the NRL with his devastating and dominant plays

I am 194cm and I got a photo with him the other week and he looks a little taller than me... but I was holding my 7yo in one arm and tend to slouch a little... I reckon he is 194-196cm... or 6'4 to 6'5...

Perspective time!

Brad is in the middle, between Croker & Turbo, bearing the weight of their arms on his shoulders & slouching to compensate for Croker's shorter stature.

Therefore Brad appears much shorter than Turbo but it isnt the height in post match photos that matters, it's the stature one displays on field that really matters.

This is what I’m questioning... club website says 194, but to me he looks way taller. Everyone is right though - head and shoulders above the rest of the playing field!!

Hmmm. I don't trust the Manly site's details as they have been confirmed as incorrect on many occasions, including young Saddler's height.

I always pegged him as 6'5.

The unknown in the photo is the old 'boots on or off' variable. Perhaps Tom was wearing boots and Brad wasn't?

 

[Stevo]

He's 6'5 - 6'6. That's how tall i am and i look him straight in the eye.

No its your mum

And Ben Trbojevic is recorded as being taller than Tom at 195cm or about 6'5" and standing near Tom he looks taller, and apparently still growing.

He was born just 3 days after our beautiful victory over the useless Dragqueens in 1996

He's very small, about the size of his dads thumb but he looks taller.
