Would have been Port and Collingwood with King. Ridiculous that our most important player has only played one game.

Liked his aggression. Angry King is good for us.

Great having King back, and we sure need him, but the media overhype is ridiculous. So much attention on him, may help Caminiti, Membrey.

Yep. He’ll also have at least two defenders flying against him most of the time, which will leave someone without an opponent

Anyone in a glass-half-empty mood can muse on whether King won us the game yesterday ...

Because without him, where would we be tonight? A lot of players are down.

Midfield lumbering and trying hard but nothing like what is needed.

Don't think we'd beat a single team in the current top 8 if we played 'em tomorrow.

We limp to the bye and recharge. I think we can, it won't be a moment too soon.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

It's just the way he is
Looks like he's been pulling cones

A great first game back
What also excited me was how much bigger he looked around the shoulders and chest compared to the hammer and poo.
They're not much shorter than Max , so in 12 to 18 months once they've filled out , they could be anything.

Showed how good he is and crucial to our side. Had an ok game first one back and kicked 4, imagine when he’s up a firing!?

Kicking looked good too 👍

He'd forgotten the words, been a while since he played in a winning team.

Max is now tipping the scales at 100 kegs and it shows.
His challenge will be second game up this week when players that had a long layoff tend to struggle backing up.
King, Caminiti and Membrey is a nice balance!
It also allows Mitchie to go into the midfield, an exciting prospect..just need Windy to come into some good form!!

Reading between the lines and after listening to the coach's presser, maybe King who was roughed up a bit, wasn't impressed with the lack of support he got from his team mates.

Trade for Humphrey, Anderson, Rowell. 2 out of the three will do.
