Ben McKinley

[Goroyals22]

Senwa and Tim Gossage just did a great interview with Benny Mac. Well worth a listen just to see how well he has kicked on in life after footy..
looking back through this thread he was much maligned but he still averaged 2 goals a game which isnt shabby at all..

He was the shining light of 2008. When he kicked 7 v the Bombers in 2008 , i was at that game and i was thinking we finally got a good FF! haha

His first playing season was insane. He was going to be the next Peter Sumich

 

[Cainozz]

I remember the 2008 season when Kennedy debuted for us against the dogs and thinking McKinley would be a much better forward by the end of both of their careers. How wrong was I

 

[cottoneyeYeo]

mckinley already our best player

 

[FKASC]

Didn't need him anymore since we have Mr Jack Darling, who can actually chase

RIP Darling defensive efforts

 

[Goroyals22]

RIP Darling defensive efforts

B mac had 7 tackles in his last game for the Eagles.. oh for a forward who did that in a game now

 

[Truckosaurus]

Would have been a champion if he'd debuted 10 years earlier and a premiership player if he'd debuted three years earlier.

Wow that’s like our entire forwardline’s average these days. And he was supposedly poor defensively!

Should have had the ball himself

Was that the Brisbane, wooden spoon, Mitch Brown vs Jonathon Brown game?

 

[The Passenger]

McKinley's seven tackles came against Melbourne at the G earlier in that 2010 season. A rare win at the G, which I got to witness. The G is great when the crowd is up and about. Watching two teams at the bottom of the ladder in front of 20K was a bit of a preview of what the Covid seasons would look like.

So what is he up to these days?

So what is he up to these days?

Hes a partner in a law firm in melbourne and since his wife showed his 5 year old child his you tube highlights of a 5 goal game against port a rusted on eagle supporter again.

2010 off-season: McKinley traded, Cockie delisted.


Clubs gone downhill ever since.
