I think they’ve handled him dreadfully. Why put this in the public domain? That club stinks. They haven’t known when to put their arm around their players and when to expect more.

He’s a first year player in the system. He’s clearly fed up with getting no support and learning very little.

I don't disagree with that either  but the media frenzy has also fed off this rubbish as well.  It's like Jack Watts all over again in some sense. 

I also think it's a severe double standard.  Let's see the jurno the wrote the story take an ice bath until someone else says it's time.

    How dumb is footy sometimes?

    Clubs employ a person to stand with giant cards telling the players how many minutes left. It looks like something from a weird Japanese TV show. A middle aged person in full sponsors gear holding a giant paper sign that says ‘90’.

    Can we get the mascots to do it for a laugh?

    As good as king is he might just cost the saints the game

    How is King 5th in the Coleman with kicking like that? Saints lose it's on him.

    I thought Max's goal kicking technique was bad. King is atrocious. Spins it in the hands and his grip is totally wrong. Surely he should go around the corner everytime. His drop punts are no chance with the way he kicks them

    I feel sorry for this poor kid. It’s a flimsy reason for dropping him and what’s worse is he won’t get a chance to play in Adelaide in front of his family and friends, ie, people who actually do want to support him. 🙁

    It must go with the name Max that just miss simple goals. 

    Watching the saints supporters looking away when King was lining up is how I am when Gawn kicks for goal.

    St Kilda are the worst team in the AFL when they have ANYTHING to play for. The minute they have nothing to lose they come good.

    Wow - you'd want to skin King alive right now as a Saints supporter.

    So king is a professional footballer. Full time job is to kick goals. 

    0.5.

    I'd trade King. Has cost the Saints quite a few games this year and they'll get plenty for him.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
