, he’s 2 goals off of leading the Coleman. He has to be doing something right.

, he’s 2 goals off of leading the Coleman. He has to be doing something right.

He was my whipping boy for the first few rounds but has definitely changed up his game. Doesn’t stand around like a statue and always consistently moving around creating options

 

[Southern Sun]

Love seeing him get up the ground and working back to goal. Doesn't need to be all the time but walter is a great match for King as he can also play deep or high. Starting to see him hit packs a bit harder also, which was something he was always good at pre knee injury but has obviously struggled with since coming back. Looks like he is starting to recover physically but more importantly mentally.

 

[GC2015]

For all the crap this board hangs on Ben King, he’s 2 goals off of leading the Coleman. He has to be doing something right.

Kicked his 29th goal tonight and is now leading the Coleman by 2 goals! I believe it's the first time King has ever led the Coleman. Let's see what Charlie Curnow (27) does against Sydney tomorrow night and Jesse Hogan (26) does against the Bulldogs on Sunday arvo. Would be nice if King could end the round on top of the Coleman tally.

[SandyToes]

We definitely got the good one

Kingy (42) is only one goal behind Curnow (43) now, despite playing just one game in the last three weeks. Big opportunity for King to put up a big number against North next week.

Blues play the tigers tomorrow/today so good chance Curnow is 5 ahead by Monday

Close but thankfully in our favour that Curnow is 3 ahead after the Tiges game.

 

[GC2015]

Three is very manageable. Especially considering we play North Melbourne in our next game and the Blues play GWS in Sydney. Would be awesome to see Kingy standing atop the Coleman tally this time next week.

 

[KaySwizzle]

He’s a game down because of injury too. He’d likely kick a goal or two afainst Freo.

He is a very consistent goal scorer and very reliable in front of goals too. Having an excellent year.

More so than his brother, imo.....

being traded, likely BS but would we want to entice him to play with his brother? We have the draft collateral to get the Saints interested.

 

[kreglze]

I don't think they both work together FWIW, but we would need to lose a decently paid player and key forward to even consider it.

Lukosius
King
King
Read
Walter

All these players couldn't make it together.

The irony considering St Kilda’s complete unprofessionalism after the 2018 draft is quite amusing.

Quite happy with how that pick turned out.

 

[Supersuns]

Max isn't worth what it would cost. No need for him, we have the better brother.

 

[nutstar]

I just don’t see the two working so well together.. to top it off, we already have the better King.

Don't have a spot for him

 

[TheGoldPersons]

It won't happen because the slander St Kilda would get for losing both brothers will be generational

 

[MarcLocksCrustySock]

Imagine how confused opposition defences would be if they made sure they had matching hair and facial hair

Almost worth it for that

Would be hilarious banter

I know the draw card of playing in Melbourne must be hard to turn down, but you’d think Ben is pretty happy sitting in his massive house at Burleigh, playing with his mates and (hopefully) building a bloody good team, in the warm weather, on $800k per year, with very few people interrupting him day to day or copping much from the media, after watching what his brother has had to go through.
