Why Kingsley may play this week

[bluey_21]

I guess we are going to have to agree to disagree

[WilliamPowell]

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he plays. The facts are he is experienced and I like crackertiger's thinking about him being in the team means he will mostly like get Michael and who cares if doesn't kick a goal especially if that frees up young Jack to kick 5 or 8

Sarge toweled up Michael, whose to say Jack can't

I like crackertiger's thinking as well. Fletcher is playing more a zoning off role this year similar to Joel. If Michael takes the bigger bodied Kingsley that would mean Fletcher to Schulz and Jack would then get the third Essendon defender.

The Tigers last night said the inclusion of Riewoldt would not preclude the selection of former Geelong forward Kent Kingsley, who kicked five goals in the VFL last weekend.

"We haven't had final selection, but I wouldn't rule Kent out yet. That's not to say he's playing, but the decision hasn't been made yet," Richmond football manager Paul Armstrong said.

I don't like Kent, just my opinion. Just doesn't impress me. On the weekend he may have kicked a bag but they were all gift goals that he didn't have to work for.

Also him playing would be a complete contradiction to where we want to be. Playing him would just set back the development of another tall

Kent baby worked hard to make space and find himself with no opponent

Go Kent!

Kent did not work hard at all for those goals, as I said they were all gifted.

His first goal came in the goal square after he conned the umpire into giving him a 50m penalty.

His next couple of goals all came off the hard work of Jack and Mullins.

Go Kent!

A full-forward's job description is to kick goals. If he has only 5 kicks and kicks 5 goals he has done his job.
He is there to finish off the hard work done by the players up the ground.

I agree fish, look at Fevola, Riewoldt and lately Hall. Posession figures in the low to mid teens yet still bagging 4 to 6 goals on average. I'm not going to bag the guy before he is given a chance. Obviously the club sees something in him. I'm hoping Kent gets a run so we can see what he is capable of in the 1's before I pass judgement.
Good luck Kent! Kick some Bomber Butt!

Will Kent be playing in 2011

I doubt he will make it pass this year so what is the point of giving a game to someone who isn't going to get us to a premiership. Cannot see the logic

[GoKent!]

Will Kent be playing in 2011

neither will jay!

What did we all think of Kingsley first game in Y&B?

9 kicks, 3 handballs, 8 marks, 2 behinds.

 

[Life goes on]

Back to Coburg and play Hughes for the next 4 weeks.
