Being short doesn't mean he can't be a good fullback. One of South Sydney's greatest ever, Clive Churchill, played fullback and he was 175 cm tall (i.e. 5 foot 9 inches). Gray is only 5 cm shorter.

Heck, Preston Campbell played fullback, five eighth, halfback, and wing during his career, and he was only 167cm tall. Height is not the issue in my opinion.
Did Clive play the game this century though?
The games changed a lot since then

Jai's size would become more of an issue if he was singled out at 6 in the defensive line in my opinion. I think height only really becomes a problem in the modern game if you're a winger or a centre and you're getting targetted with bombs, but on the flip side the smaller wingers are usually incredibly quick off the mark.

So Molo’s management has reached out to south’s twice now about a deal. But south’s don’t want to touch his asking price of 600k and dragons won’t pinch in and cash
