I wouldn't be using King as the benchmark for anything, the Tiges are going nowhere until he is moved on.

That's why King is the bench mark. Hard is a cats head, competitive, very good defensively but limited skill. If King's in the team ahead of you then you're not good enough to be in a top 4 side. If you get better than him then you are. Right now I'd prefer to use the spot for an extra midfielder but if we get a guy who can do King's role for our side it would help on our way back from a joke to a consistently competitive side.

Not with you on this one, can't afford to carry a one dimensional player like King. We have enough of our own to offload.

Complete Spud???

In his best year 2012 (22 games) he averaged 1.6 goals a game from and average of 13 disposals around 36.8 goals for the year (23 rounds), well above our best foward for last year and definately better than any of the existing small forward options mentioned. He made 83 tackles averaging 3.8 a game. Both of these stats are incidently higher than Jack Kings. He is definately not a spud and crumbing around our talls kicking 36 goals for a late draft pick in my opinion would be a good thing.

There is obviously a reason King is preferred at the Tiges but I back in Roos to make him the player we need and I recon he would be a great pick up for the Dees.

This is one instance where I wouldn't trust the stats. He peaked in 2012 no doubt, but look at his stats from last year. Couldn't get on the field and when he did he had no impact.

He's a fluffer.

Can't kick to save his life. Can't convert. One sided. One dimensional.

Spud.

Who now plays for North. :)

He's just been delisted by North.

Worth a punt on a 1 year minimum money deal?

I would rather re-draft Lucas Cook.

Why would we recruit someone that has failed at two clubs, for farks sake?

Mitch Clark?

No we don't want to draft Robin

A Grade VFL Player

The End.

I think calling him an A Grader in the two's is generous but I get the point.

He's done and from what I have heard a bit of a tool.

No, thanks. Garlett will do be fine for small forward. Kent will hopefully provide some nice back up.

Against us at Etihad marked at 25 metres in front - fluffed the pass to someone 5 metres out.

Too similar to Garlett.

Wouldn't say no to him though.

check out Gartlett's career stats and compare them to Nahas...not even close.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
