Which one of these bulls is bigger framed to those who have seen both? How do they compare to monopoly frame wise?

Two Monopoly Moneys we have this year are carbon copies of each other and bigger frame, taller calves than Monopoly's.  Good bone, nice calves.  Neither cow milks the best so I'm anxious to see how they do on feed.

Obviously MM is a year older so he's easier to score on frame. He's a notch bigger than Monopoly in my opinion. MM is very good fronted and designed well.

Walkie Talkie in my opinion is the correct frame score for a yearling clubby bull, he's not a dink, but big enough to have some grow. WT is bigger boned, bigger hipped. Honestly if I didn't have a prejudice against using new bulls he'd be right at the top of the list to try. Phenotypically he checks a lot of the boxes off the list. I'd expect (obviously just a guess at this point) him to throw a wider skeleton and notch more power than MM.

Thanks, I was aware they were a different age but forgot to ad that part in. I really appreciate your input. It's exactly what I expected to hear jut from my judgement of their pedigrees. Glad to have it confirmed by you. Thanks again!
