His height seems to depend on the writer!

He prefers to stand in one spot.

I'd rather we played him around the ground as a tall, marking utility or try him in the backline even.
Yeah he seems all at sea in the forward line. Not a silly idea to trial him somewhere else on the ground because he's had a few years at FF and it's not working for him.
A 22 year old sitting 4th in the Coleman race

“Nup, clearly can’t play in the forward line”

Genius.
Always get a laugh on this site
Maybe let’s ask King to go deep defensive half way through quarters…
Funny stuff

Even commentary just noted
Hawkins leads up at the ball
Cameron fills space behind
They never lead to the same area
Compare that to our shambolic , bombing game plan
We desperately need to sack Lade (forwards coach) and McGlynn (midfield)
We won’t sack Brett cause the Board has shafted us
But our forward structure AND the transition of ball into it badly needs work
Why not play Sinclsir in the guts now? He’s our best player by a margin and adds the skills by foot into forward 50 we desperately need
Play him and Clarke through
But for gods sake get someone in NOW to rejig the forward line set up
A number of times on Friday we had King, Marshall and Ryder all in the same pack flying for the ball.

It’s laughable.
Yup
There is no forward structure at all
It’s like kick to kick at high school and everyone just flying for screamers
Then it gets rebounded easy
Dumb stuff

Membrey and Billings High

Gresham

King

Higgins

Ryder/Marshall

I’d go with a basic Wishbone set up

Long or Butler as 7th
