Recommitted Ben King [re-signed until 2024]

[Lore]

 

[staffonly]

what part of 3 games is long term?

Yes he’s shown he has the skill set to be a long term option.

 

[Foxman98]

Are St Kilda the new North?

If reports are to be believed they have thrown their "warchest" at King and then Butters and missed both.

And according to Caro they are still fishing.

Bailey Smith next?

 

[Atomboy]

Its good that B.King is staying at the Gold Coast.

For my Clubs POV he would have cost a lot and mids are far more of a pressing need.

Totally agree, Ben King is the last player we need to be selling the farm for. Saved us from ourselves.

Mids, mids, mids please

 

[Atomboy]

Bailey Smith next?

Hope so, but only as long as he can cover Hannebery’s output

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Sensible on his part to only sign for 2yrs.
No use committing any longer until you know for sure Clarkson is your coach.

 

[HirdyLannister]

Will be wearing red and black in 2023.

Will be wearing red and black in 2025.

It actually the opposite. Ben wants Dew.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Will Ben to St. Kilda be the new David Swallow to North?

More like Josh Kelly to North I reckon

 

[Red Bull]

And now Saints fans never really wanted him at all …

 

[Turbocat]

Doesn't look happy... with big Walter coming in...would a move be possible?

 

[Big Red Machine]

Nope

Victorians need to stop trying to create a narrative that isn't there

 

[Turbocat]

Nope

He is happy to stay then fine... I think there is a chance he could end up like Peter Wright. Walter looks a ripper

. Is there a more overrated forward in the competition?

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Another day of nothing from Ben King. Is there a more overrated forward in the competition?

His brother.

 

[adammania9]

His brother.

Max beats his brother in every relevant KPI.

 

[The Kings Ransom]

Max beats his brother in every relevant KPI.

Set shot accuracy pretty relevant
And games played.

No doubt I’d pick Max if I had a choice of the two.

has kicked 33 goals the season after coming back from an ACL.

He's been hot-and-cold like the entire team has, but I'm not sure where this narrative of him being some useless spud is starting to spring from.
