Looks like he got one kick in the first half today.

At least he got on the park before his brother.

Sadly I reckon it'll take a few seasons for the twins to become regular players.

At which time I hope they are both in R, W & B

He was very, very good.

I reckon his best spot is down back however. He will be a gun.

And we got the good one apparently!

Geez it could be exciting next year....new coach (Ratts), King and Bytle on the park. Hanners at full fitness (hopefully). B. Hill possibly. We're due some luck and next year is the year of the Rat(t) so I'm going in with a glass half full.

Yes, I know it's the year of the Rat(t) but the Chinese also believe that double numbers are lucky. In 2021 it will be 55 years since our last flag. We'll make finals next year but 2021 is our year

the headlines will look better too when they write; "It's been 55 years since their last premiership"

Not so. Ben is now a regular and a f****** good footballer already.

Great to see him play so well. He's getting those first few years of development done and we're not paying for it.

Looking forward to bringing him here in 15 months.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

Listening to SEN this morning, Tim says that Ben King has told friends he will be returning to victoria.
Not sure how this gets done, is it this years first?

He needs to chose his friends wisely if that's true.

The good judges say that gc needs stronger playing group / onfield leadership more than early draft picks to build the culture, so you might be on the money

Hmmm Assuming Jack Steven wants to be traded, Ben might be a part of a trade involving Stuv.

You would imagine that he would wait till his two year contract is up, and that he would then seek a trade.

I would prefer that this year's first be used on a mid. Whether that the be best available mid (kid) in the draft or to be involved in a trade.
