Max King

[Falcon3518]

Please tell me you're no older than 14?

God forbid I criticise Max King in a Max King thread. People think he’s Jesus on here. He’s a gun but he hasn’t proven anything yet, it’s almost as bad as the $1m a year Jackson stuff.

Except play at league leading levels in goalkicking and contested marks over the past 13 rounds as a 21 year old with under 50 games

 

[aussierulesrules]

On which planet would Max not absolutely dominate if played at CHB!?

He’d take 20 marks a game and his field kicking would be a weapon.

Which has led to what exactly? Team success? (Meaning Finals) no, individual awards? no, Costing St Kilda better draft picks by keeping them middle of the road instead of bottoming out and actually rebuilding, yes.

I don’t think he’s strong or experienced enough to take on key forwards. He might later though but I doubt he’d ever play there so we’ll never know.

My comment had nothing to do with any criticism of King.

 

[schmuttt]

Could genuinely be the best player in the league. He has a ceiling I’m not sure any player his age or younger can reach (Maybe Jackson).

Yeah nah. How often has a played taken 20 marks a game?

You sure?



And remind me, how many finals did Richo play?

Not getting to at least a prelim in a season is a failure, you’re just making up the numbers and not contending at all.

With Richo don’t know the exact number of finals (It’s very low) but I’m pretty sure he got to a prelim final in 01. So yeah unfortunately not much team success but he did win individual awards. I’m not biased here Richmond also have many players like Richo and King, every club does.

Max “The Junk Time” King played alright today against GWS pfff hahah 1.7 is so bad I don’t think I’ve ever seen a forward kick that in my life. Saints won as well against a bottom 6 side [emoji23]

I think you might be the funniest poster on Bigfooty, congrats

 

[Chaisa]

If he sorts out his kicking I honestly could see him cracking the 100 goal in a season mark. Looks extremely difficult to stop already and you'd assume he'll only get better too.

Franklin did it once, too. And he kicked 2.11 as well. Our coach even kicked 0.7 once. Funny that all of those were in wins...

Or the worst. Line-ball.

You haven't seen a lot of football. This is just from Lance Franklin:

2.11
1.7
1.6
2.7
2.6
1.6
0.5
2.7
0.6

You must be prepubescent then. Watch some more matches during the school holidays, might add to your knowledge bank.

Judging from your comment you have no idea what exaggeration and sample size means. Buddy would obviously have more because he almost finished his career. King does this on a regular basis. It’s pretty well known his set shot kicking is not the best.

Now tell us how well Balta played

4 disposals, 2 marks, 0 shots on goal was it?

Yeah terrible, but we aren’t saying he’ll be Tony Lockett [emoji23]

We also played against the Dees not GWS lol

Let's compare them over the season then shall we?

You may not be suggesting Balta will be the next Lockett but you have said he's better than King

King is a year younger and missed the majority of 2 years of footy in 2018 and 19.

Seems to be tracking very well to me

Balta is a better utility, not as a pure forward. Idk why this is so controversial. Balta has only played 4 games forward and has already shown potential. He’s also one of our best backman that can pinch hit in the ruck.

Who cares if he is a better utility though?

The question is if he's a better footballer. I doubt anyone would be taking Balta over King
