Is Matthew Allen...

If we lacked HIGHT in the middle of the season why didn't we play Mckee???

You see now you have confused me.
I thought we were discussing Kinnear.
OK so now you want to move the discussion on to McKee.

Ok lets go.

McKee was umpired out of the game with the centre bounce rule.
Josh asked MM if he could take on the Ruck role
McKee is even slower than Kinnear and both should be given the a.rse.
If you combined both of them they still wouldnt make a decent footballer.

So what is it Kinnear or McKee you decide.
Hope I haven't put too much pressure on your head bone.

I dunno he'd be a pretty big bloke, with 4 arms and 4 legs, he might be handy in the rucks...

What I don't under stand is that if he is such a 'bad' player as you people are making him out to be, then why is he still on the list,

I haven't understood this for 3 years.

continues to get a game, when there is better players u say, well that says it all, either BK is a good player or

I can only assume they are trying to give him some trade value. It didn't work and he will be delisted.

Sounds a lot like Licuria and Molloy.

Licuria is a good stopper and a good ball gatherer. They are redeeming features when he is as good at both as he is. He has also improved every aspect of his game every year he has played. Kinnear has improved nothing at all since day 1 except his pay for some strange reason. Mooloy's redeeming feature is his crash bang body work. However I have lost patience with his 2 year injury/form slump and IMO he should be traded.

Players like mcgough deserve bagging as the **** up every week but Bk's games this season have been enough to keep him in the side. If not for the injury he would still be in the team. He played 1 game last year and was still named emergency in the granny.He is tall,He is mobil.His kickin,though questionable at times ,is certainly not the worst at the club. He puts his body on and tackles.He can mark better than a molloy/Mckee/Walker all big men fighting for the same positions. Redeeming feature? Which players have them? the star players. Jason Johnson is a great player and what are his redeeming features, his effort? well Ben doesnt lack effort.

McGough is 18 years old. he is a very good clearance player and a good ball gatherer. He has a lot of upside because he has play reading ability. Kinnear has none of these qualities. His last game was terrible. How can you say it ws good. We were dominant, he played lose and turned the ball over with no pressure. That is when he didn't take far to long to dispose from a set kick and still kick poorly. Seriously, Ben has been at the club long enough to show he will be a player if he ever will be and he hasn't shown a thing. Compare what he has made of limited chances to Scotland.

I agree with you there Scotland has had a big lack of opportunities yet he takes them when he gets them

Mark you never miss a beat.

Scotland is the classic example to compare with Kinnear.
They are like chalk and cheese.

Compare the exquisite skills of Scotland, his great footy brain and his ability to be "where the ball is" to Kinnear who has none of those skills.
I ask anyone - Who would you prefer to have kicking the ball to you and hitting you on the chest - if your life depended on it, Scotland or Kinnear.
You can use that analogy for any footy skill and Scotland wins every time.
