It was announced at the players' sponsorship dinner tonight that Edwards and King will play their first game on Friday night.

With thanks to Mayonaisse sauce  :thumbsup

Great news. Well done and well deserved to both  :clapping.

That's obviously what the two big cheers at training today were for  ;).

There's not much of him but Edwards uses the ball well more often than not. I hope Terry gives him gametime to show his wares a la Polo last year. 

King will need to play in the BP. Moore didn't train yesterday  ??? and Rainesy isn't 100% right so Jake may just swap with one of them.

 ;D that's what I just posted on the training thread - knock to the knee but Oki doki.

Rainesy was very funny last night on the panel  :thumbsup

Actually wasn't a bad night ;)

Great effort by Jake the trade"y" and young Shane - wish them the best

I met HK Tiger last night - nice bloke  :thumbsup
Shame the guy didn't meet Foley, but they're all pretty approachable.  I went up to Nathan myself, so maybe he was a bit shy - which happens.

Article on Sportal about King and Edwards playing this week.

Gee Paul Armstrong has put some pressure on Edwards comparing him to John Platten.

Hope he is as good as him  :thumbsup

Good luck to them both.

He's played one good game X - last week! Up until them his forms been patchy. The 1st round of the VFL he struggled

The other 2 have been consistent through the entire pre-season and now in Coburgs first 2 games - they deserve it

I sat next to Gas, and I gave him all the best from my friends on here lol
Didn't talk footy - we talked babies.  His wife is due tomorrow week - identical twin girls.  I refrained from saying he couldn't get that right lol
And I had Andrew to my right and Richo on the next table.

Good night  ;D
