Big men take time to develop. Not saying he'll get there but you can't make a call on a big man when he's 19.

    true ,never much good until about 25 ,but there have exsptions

    King can take a contested mark at 19. He has great hands below his knees for a big man and above average skills. Anyone writing Kingy off at this stage of his development obviously hasn't seen him play or has any understanding of how big who are slight progress.

    have you read the last 2 match day reports about king?

    Err yes i have. Nothing to be excited about mate.

    round 5.

    Max King: He kicked four goals in the Development League. He took 10 marks and he played the best game of his life. He probably kicked one of the goals of the year and took one of the marks of the year. Maxy’s heading in the right direction and we’re really happy with his past month. He’s going to put himself into senior VFL selection this week, which is exciting.

    round 4

    Max King: Max continues to improve. He kicked three goals and had another strong game from a marking point of view. We rate Kingy and we’re grading him a little bit harder, because he’s playing against more developing bodies in this league. His past two or three weeks have shown really good improvement. I don’t think an opportunity is too far around the corner for senior VFL selection.

    True....it's the development league, the thirds..can he get a game in the VFL now, where he will be competing against some better defenders.....

    If Spencer is still on our list after all this time, then King deserves at least 20 years to prove himself.

    King well be retained. He will pay some VFL seniors this year and will then pay all of next year there.

    If he played seniors this week he would be the third ruck behind Jamar and Gawn. Better he gets a full game.

    If King can play like this consistently in the Casey firsts then we can be excited. Not sure why we need to be at half mast about a few goals in the VFL seconds though.

  • Quote

    This would be King's second year on the rookie list. Isn't there a maximum of 3 years a player can remain on the rookie list? If this is the case (can't recall the rule so it might not be) then king really only has another season to show he has got what it takes to advance. Looks promising but there is a heap of time and development to go with him.

    Mitch White just snuck forward and drilled a goal from 45m out.

    Good to see White, Neal-Bullen and Michie getting a lot of touches...(13, 12 and 10 respectively)

    Neal-Bullen is the sort of kid who could play straight away. He's physically more advanced than his mate, Billy. He won't set the world on fire but he'll pay his way. A 150 gamer assured.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
