Yep he is hopeless but he has a few friends like Williams & Walker.
All three should go.

Nothing wrong with Walker. Anybody remember how hopeless Presti was in his first two years? Big blokes take ages.

labrooy, some of the sentiment might appear to be overly harsh, but I think you're missing where it's directed at.

Ben is a good bloke and tries his guts out and none of us here deny him that. However the anger and "dud" claims etc.. are more directed at our football department.

There are plenty of players not up to AFL standard. It's just our department have had three chances to put this poor kid out of his misery (first time was excusable)! What's worse, they keep bloody playing him!!

That's where the anger is going. It might be misdirected by calling Ben a "dud" or "useless" but the deal is, that it should be blatantly obvious, both to us and the football department, which is why people get frustrated and feel the need to resort to such terms.

FIGJAM,

That is what I am saying. Everyone who bags Ben personally is doing him a grave injustice. I have already stated that I don't think he is good enough and the highly paid members of the football department at Collingwood should also have come to this realisation. But why direct our anger at Ben himself? He has done nothing to deserve it. You may as well abuse me and other Collingwood supporters on this board who were never good enough to play for the team and win that elusive premiership.

If rumours are true, we will be seeing Kinnear again this week.

If this is true, please direct anger to football department, and not BK, who can't help being bad, nor apparantly can he help being selected.

Has he heard of the word retirement? I know he's heard of the VFL. I'm not sure he's heard of the concept of obtaining funds under false pretenses.

Oh, well.
Another week of "Oh, no, why did you kick it to him?"

 

[labrooy]

BK is back in the VFL this week. Should make a few very happy.

The 7 year 50 game Ben Kinnear experiment must surely now be over.

HEY FOOTBALL DEPARTMENT - HE CAN'T FCUKING PLAY

 

[hotpie]

Replaced by a rookie. GO NICK MAXWELL!!!!!

 

[dunno4]

Can we make this board BK free.

I'm well over him, lets concentrate on the future.

Come on, he hasn't been that bad in recent weeks...obviously aside from that kick against Port.

He hasn't been as bad as Williams, but he's been bad nonetheless.

Oh how I wish Tommy didn't have gammy knees!!
