Excellent - would be great for Hungry, for the Tigers and the AFL in general.
Bartlett was an absolute champion and IMO stacks up very well alongside other AFL players already cast in bronze at The G.

Get it done Benny! :thumbsu:

Not only worthy as a player but has also spent his whole life giving back to the game.

Today he influences AFL rules of the game and while the public will almost never support every decision of anybody is such a role, his influence is widespread. Great commentator too!

Thoroughly deserved!
 
Absolutely not.

He's the reason the game is frustrating, hard to understand and occasionally unwatchable.

Good player but such a moron who doesn't deserve anything other than being muzzled and put in a retirement home.

Did you ever watch him play? He was much more than a good player. Absolute champion player.

Pretty unlucky as a coach given what a rabble the administration was and how little money he had to play with. I remember Chris Naish being asked who was his best coach after he left for Port Adelaide and he named KB.

I also think you give him far too much credit for his role in making the game unwatchable as you put it. So many people involved in rule changes. The fact he's on SEN gives him far more exposure to criticism than the rest is the BIG difference.

You are an idiot! I have watched Richmond for near on 50 years and have barely missed a game in that time. KB is the greatest player the Tigers have produced in my time. Better than Royce Hart and an absolute gun. No on baller dominated the game like he did. Best rover of his era. Better than Mathews as on baller and delivered on the big stage year in year out. Even at the end of his career as a small forward he was a star. Regardless of what his opinions are and your take on him, what he delivered to the game at the MCG makes him deserving of being immortalised alongside other greats of the game with a statue at the G. KB thanks for the memories!

Is that you Stan Magro?
 
As I said I'm not talking about his on field ability.

I agree that he receives more criticism because SEN gives him a forum to back up his rule changes and ideas but he's so stubborn about them and refuses to take criticism on board from the public.

As I said, good player but his media presence ruins his legacy for me.

Happy for you to not watch it then...

For all the annoying things he might do in the media, his constant trolling of Carlton more than makes up for it.

I haven't listened to SEN for a while but I'm sure he'll be ramping things up again about this time of the year.

Just a minor detail there oi watch out , it's rules committee and not really as you've mentioned "his rule changes" . I don't necessarily agree with the rule changes etc either but I wouldn't go as far as laying it all on KB. For me as a whole his contributions to the game as a player, coach, involvement post coaching, promotion of footy more than justify a statue. Love him or not I don't think it can be denied that overall his positive contributions to the game far outweigh any negatives...just my 2c worth
 
Make it happen Benny G!

Thoroughly deserved IMO :thumbsu:

You need to bring his name up in front of any Collingwood supporter older than 30 and to see their face when you mention his name will highlight to you exactly why he needs a bloody bronze statue LMAO
