    King Hit by ex-Teammate

    King hit by ex-teammate

    SAINT Steven King's father, Ashleigh, last night launched a bitter attack on his son's former teammate turned rival, Mark Blake, saying the Geelong ruckman had slurred his family.

    Just hours after Geelong's win, Blake alleged one of King's brothers sent him malicious text messages after last year's Grand Final loss to Hawthorn, and it was "good to stick it up (King's) a---".

    As the feud intensified, Mr King said last night he was bewildered by Blake's comments.

    "I've asked my boys (Michael and Troy) about it and they said they've never texted Mark Blake in his life or got his number," Mr King said.

    "If he's got a text, he might be very surprised where it may have come from, because we don't know.

    "He's probably only assuming someone from our family texted him . . . It could have been anybody."

    King, 30, took Blake's place in Geelong's 2007 premiership-winning side. Blake swore he would leave the club if King didn't, forcing King's trade to St Kilda less than two weeks later. He played on Saturday, but did not shake hands with or talk to King.

    "No, we didn't shake hands . . . I didn't probably get around to him," Blake said.

    "But I copped a few text messages after last year's Grand Final from his brother, so it was good to stick it up his a---."



    .............


    Disgraceful. Mark Blake you are a F%&^ING TOOL!

    You've won a premiership, how about some winning with dignity???

    He looks a bit of a goose if it was someone pretending to be King's brother that sent him the texts last year.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Why would King's brother care if Geelong lost to Hawthorn?

    Exactly. Blake is just being a selfish little dickwad and harbouring a grudge from a few years ago regarding a decision King didn't make. I hate when winners behave so unsporting like. Just shake his hand and then walk off...

    My guess would be 8-10 years of football left in the body.

    How would you feel if Luke Darcy hasn't been so good in the media, and said to the club i think i have another 2 years in me, and the club trades him away for nothing to keep a disgruntled Peter Street. Who then it turns is a sooky little bitch.

    I'd be a little upset with my club and pissed off that my players could handle winning with a little more (or any) dignity.

    What a twat, he's just won a Grandfinal and his first concern is slagging off an ex team mate and his family.

    Nomally that doesn't happen until the fourth or fifth beer.

    Over beers in the inner sanctum is fine, telling the media... what a tool. I dislike him now, so much so he and the tip rat are at the top of my most disliked tree.
