The moniker for him in our household is "Little Richard". All wild hair, glintingĀ ivories, sassy moves andĀ stage presence to burn. Twists and turns and hits the scoreboardĀ rather like LR hit the keyboard. Some of the shots of him bear an uncanny resemblance.

    Heā€™s put the competition on notice now, so get ready for the tag and defendersĀ roughing him up. I donā€™t know why but I can very easily see Nibbler being the first in to protect him. I think the boys should be ready to ā€œfly the flagā€ against the cats.Ā 

    For that matter though Kozzie tackles as hard as anyone in the team so he will be up for it!

    It's alright, Spargo will come to his aidĀ ?

    Joe Daniherā€™s initial trade request bombed out. But how different would life be for the Dons had they done the deal with Sydney?"

    Article on HS about Dons potentially missing Kozzy and Logan McDonald due to their reluctance to trade Danniher to Sydney. Good to be on the other side of these articles for a change.Ā

    Instead Essendon paid Daniher to rehab for the Lions the following year, genius from Dodoro

    I feel a bit for Josh Mahoney having to spend his working life dealing with clubs who are in the "really crap" phase of their cycle. I think he's in for extended pain with the Bombers.

    Do you consciously stop at the keyboard and write the word Essen(drug), or J(eelong), or is it automatic for you these days??

    Sorry for thread derail...genuinely curious.

    Itā€™s no longer us in the trade revision gun, itā€™s the Bombers but like us with the Josh Kelly, May for Pick 6 and trading up for Kossie Picket calls, I still think the Bombers have done ok with Cox and Perkins.

    Jones has shown a bit so far and itā€™s only very early days.

    Very happy to have KP, he has tricks that you just canā€™t teach

    There's at least three blokes in MFC that one should not tangle with, and one of them might surprise.....

    And it will be a total duck dive bonanzaĀ from theĀ  the Geelong wussys come the weekend.

    The plan of course is like always. Use the poor buggers in yellow to exaggerate everything while playing on, snide hits behind play, and stretching the rules to the point where no rules apply to them.

    What i want to see is Goodwin walk through their huddle at three quarter time or/and Ollie best on G...

    Kozzie has totally injected this side with life.Ā 

    Similar to Ryan at the Eagles.Ā 

    Betts when he was at Adel.Ā 

    Papley at the Swans.Ā 

    So good to have him in the side.Ā

    Koz would have to be delivering some serious one-liners out on the field, having a father who is a stand-up comedian.

    Kozzy generates a level of excitementĀ whenĀ in the vicinity of the ball that I haven't felt since Jackovich. His ability to recover his footing, his creativity, his physics defying movement, finding the goals - scintillating stuff.

    Jacko moved more like a well oiled slippery caboose though.... whereas Kozzie well you have to really watch him carefully as he is that quick and zippy.Ā  If you don't you are likely to miss it as it allĀ happens in the blink of an eye.

    Mind you when you add 30 years plus a ****ty day with rain foggingĀ glasses you weren't wearing back then, missing KozzieĀ is more likely.

    I was one of the people a little suspect on how soon Kozzie would have an impact.

    Extremely happy to put my hand up and acknowledge I was wrong -Ā he's now keeping his feet, nailing chances and creating some real headaches for opposition teams. His work in traffic is first class

    Watch the highlights and listen to the crowd when he swooped on that ball inside 50 and kicked the goal.

    It felt like the days of Jeff Farmer or A jakovich lighting up the G' on a wet day.Ā  The whole crowd knew something special was about to happen.

    That was Kozzies first game on the MCG since he really arrived in round 2 and you can feel hes going to make the stadium his own.Ā Ā Ā

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old sideā€”the Tigersā€”coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking?Ā I mean by ā€œtheyā€ the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.Itā€™s no secret that the Demonsā€™ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack.Ā Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryanā€™s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winningĀ 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
