King is the leader of our team. He is 202cm and 105kg, why should'nt he be crashing into packs making himself felt against the opposition, like Gary Ablett does every week, even though he is half his size.
I rate King very highly, but this year he has been awful. If he is injured, then dont play. Rest up and get ready for next year because this year we are pretending. You cannot get respect from teams after getting beatin by Collingwood, Fremante, Bulldogs & Essendon.
If King was not soft (this year only) he would actually compete in the ruck dual, rather the running around the opposition and attempting to avoid contact whilst obtaining an easy stat. He should take a note out of Damien Bourkes book and actually make a contest!

If you were telling me to 'go and get.ucked" as you put it, as i was clapping my team off, I would have knocked your ar$e out to put in bluntly. If you are a real supporter, you would accept the fact that your team has up and downs, unfortunatly, the last 9 weeks we have struggled.

You say Shannon Brynes was soft and fumbled, yet you say Tennace was good. Whilst i agree with what part of you say, Tennace was good at finding the ball, his ball use was shocking again. He needs to work on his skills.
If i were picking the team, i would take Byrnes of Tennace every time. Tennace lets himself down with his kicking, Byrnes on the other hand has wonderful skill... Remember his Debut? Have you even seen Tennace kick a pressure goal from outside 50 from a setshot? The answer is no. He fumbles, handballs, passes off, etc because he lacks confidence is his kicking.

Does clapping my team off after incipid efforts and saying "all will be good" when we are perilously close to slipping out of the Top 8 make me a real supporter?
