Nick's Collingwood Page - The 2004 Team

From Glenelg, King was drafted at pick number 58 in the 2002 National Draft. A former baseballer, King spent 2003 in the Williamstown seniors, where he was a member of the premiership side, as well as being touted by Mick Malthouse as possible Grand Final chance.
However, the dream did not become a reality for King, who watched from the sidelines as Collingwood lost by 50 points. 2004 was meant to be the break through year for King, who made his debut in round four against Fremantle. King showed toughness and skill in
his short period in the seniors, scoring a goal against Port Adelaide in round six. King was then demoted to the VFL, where he appeared to lose his way.
