Just because it’s not what we want to hear, doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be said.

Inferiority complex much?

King deserves criticism

Be nice if he had Josh Bruce as a foil to do the donkey work

And while I’m at it

The ‘young’ excuse is wearing thin

Thilthorpe is younger
Georgiadis is young
Koschitzke is young
Allen is young
Naughton is young
Logan is younger
His twin brother is the same fkn age

They are doing alright!

He needs to fkn man up and start owning the f50 and stop looking like bambi!

And while he’s at it, get in the fkn gym!

I reckon Billy would second that.

Brown and Lyons are both St Kilda hating arseholes.

Their commentary yesterday was so sickening they had me yelling at them to STFU instead of abusing the maggots,

And weren't the arseholes shocked when the Saints nearly had a chance to sink their love child late in the game.

Couple of real brainless turds if you ask me. :evil:

The whole commentary was bizarre.
They couldn’t believe that when you knock someone over 50m from the ball a free or penalty might be paid. These are the same guys who couldn’t work out why King wasn’t getting to contests.

And the great Brenton Speed watches a guy drag the ball in, make no effort to get rid off it and get pinged. He’d never seen anything like it in his life and it was going to change the way footy is played.

He does need to stop looking like Bambi
Fake it til you make it, stick the chest out want the ball
That body language is looking very defensive
And he wouldn't want to repeat that flop again.

Max needs a shot of testosterone and start lifting some heavy weights.
Hes a great kid with massive potential , they need to get around him.
Marshall a huge loss for this reason

I’ll say it again, the best key forwards are peacocks

It’s more an attitudinal thing, which says - I’m the man and I’m better than you!!

From early ages, the best key forwards have swagger
Brereton, Carey, Brown, Reiwoldt, Fevola, Franklin, Walker the list goes on...

All great key forwards think they own the forward 50

Max doubts himself, it’s very obvious he lacks confidence and his hunched shoulders, sunken chest and lack of strength is concerning

The other thing
He lopes around at half pace constantly, forward shouldn’t do that

It’s 100% full pace repeat efforts

How is all the 'opinion' on the commentary, which was just 'opinions' from mouthpieces outside of our footy club, going to help Max King and help Saints win more games of footy?

Useless thread

...but I did get a few chuckles
Who said the threads purpose was to help Max King given what commentators say?? It’s a fan Internet forum ffs....what an odd thing to say...
I chuckle every time you post and miss the point..... :D

Yes it is an Internet forum and some people spend way too much time on here to be considered healthy.

Thanks Dermott - it’s all weights and being “tough” like Wayne up forward......seriously 1970s thinking ...
Forget the fact he had **** all help on the day????
What’s the help Naughton gets weekly??? How’s the ball delivered to Naughtin weekly....???? Has Ben King had a full 12 months in the system longer??????
Of course Max has work to do but stop with the cliched drivel around”peacocks” and being tough and face facts King ain’t Lockett.....ffs Nick Riewoldt was no enforcer!! Different style of player and anyone with half a brain can see that
We need King to learn where to run and when......we need balls kicked in the forward 50 not to be kicked along the ground or bombed......we need a forward game plan style that allows King to lead up and jump into space .....he’s 200cms they ain’t going to stop that..right now the way we move the ball into forward 50is comical.
But it’s all because Max isn’t Swarzenegger......funny stuff.

No one said there shouldn’t be commentary on King or that he shouldn’t be criticised. It’s the degree to which it is being done. It’s over the top and King is being scapegoated all for the glory of audience entertainment and ratings.

Brenton Speed is a total numpty. Speed and Howard sound like they should be hosting Family Feud or some tacky game show. Loud, brash and clueless.

Surely Fox doesn’t need 4 commentators to comment on one game of footy and surely the can do better than these boofheads.

The coverage is a total put off.

Tacky.

No . I don't agree. It was just a f****** pile on. Rubbishing a young player who was clearly struggling.

Now we find out that Max actually hurt his back at training last Thursday and re-injured it yesterday afternoon.

I'm willing to bet my dog has a higher IQ than that hillbilly Brown. Lyons is just a turd. Who f**** their best mates wife FFS ?

Actually No! Yuk!

Best watching it live at the ground where you’re not influenced by all the unnecessary commentary

I prefer to mute most of them when I watch a replay.

Lyon banged Brownless’ Mrs?!

They were close mates too and work colleagues.

Teflon - don’t be so sensitive

King has been shocking for weeks, and his body language is poor

He has been in ‘the system’ the same amount of time as his brother. And longer than most of other I mentioned

Fact is
He is not working hard enough (getting to contests or leading)

All he needs to do is present time and time again

I think he is an enormous talent but has a lot to learn about how to play as a key forward in the big league.

Some talk of a back injury? If so, it would explain his lacklustre efforts when the ball hits the ground. Looks a shadow of his early season self. Clearly needs a rest. Will do him good. Everyone wants him to be Tony Lockett or Dermot Brereton. Max is a stick insect. There's no bashing and crashing when you're built like that. Needs time and a few more kilograms. We want him to be a 12 Year player. Let's not destroy him at 20
