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?

    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: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
