not really, he;s just plugging gaps I feel for this season and that may be it for him.
 
I dont think it is, if KK shows form for the rest of the year i can see him fitting in well with our foward line kingsly , richo, petts, tambling/krak, hughes/riewolt, brown and whom ever else we rotate in there, if he has a slump in form and doesnt improve i think it may be it for him as well

Keen,

Don't believe those that expect Kingsley to be a Champion at Richmond and therefore are disappointed.

If the only thing Kingsley leaves us with is a bit more professionalism in our fruitcake forwardline at the moment, I'll take it.
Forget the guy gets the 'yip's bad, (but so does Richo & Schulz), as soon as Kingsley hit the field Saturday night, Kingsley tried to look for guys (he hit Krak in space) and straightened us up. Kingsley wanted to be part of a forwardline unit. He realises you need others and you need to bring other members in the forwardline into the game. For spreading the goal chances and for the overall confidence of this area of the field.

Now if someone like Pettifer gets the ball, and he could be in the carpark, he will have a shot. He BS's that he is looking for someone in a better position when you know he just wants to blaze away. When he misses, he pretends he's down on himself by punching one hand into the other. (A school kids show of fake disappointment).

If the young bucks can pick up anything from Kingsley that's better than the nothing they're getting off each other at the moment.

Kingsley isn't the future at our club, but heck, either are some of the duds we've got running around our forwardline at the moment.

On Saturday night and with Kingsley running around, they guys actually looked like they cared how the forwardline actually functioned.

He'll be good for the rest of the season.
We might learn some things from him.
Cheers

I thought KK was pretty good on Saturday night.
Considering it was his first run in a while, all be it for his new club...I thought he did okay. Nothing outstanding. But definately played a role.

His passing inside 50m was very good, and if I remember correctly, he even set up a few shots on goal. Give him a bit of time to catch up again with the speed of the AFL, and he should do alright for us.
 
Will probably be around for the rest of the year then who knows.
I hope he will be gone next year because that means that one of the younger key forwards has raised his game another level. If not then another year.

He should be drip fed one year contracts - at no time should he get a two year deal.

Yeah 3 of his kicks inside 50 were marked by a Tiger

TBO, i thought he had a good game and he seemed confident, if he can work on that he will be a good forward, can't see why he can't be a 30 to 50 goal scoring forward and contribute for while he is at richmond.

He was drafted to create more competition for our young forwards, to make them work harder to hold their spot but he's done a decent job. Still very rusty, he was a average kick but its even worse with a lack of match fitness. He's great at finding the ball though.

Kant Kicksley showed why he gets that name...

0.2...He's miss in the 2nd quarter was the biggest shank ever.

Had a good start but just died down for the last 3 quarters.
