It was a very nice debut. But let’s face it. It’s far easier to kick goals in the dogs forward line. From memory reports were dogs and port would have taken Kozzy if we didn’t and had him ranked over Weightman. Personally I think Kozzy has more upside with his pace and manic pressure as well as a more physical presence. may end up more a Jamie Elliot type which will be a very good pick. Fingers cross Kozzy becomes Cyril Rioli! 

Cyril v Elliot?

I know who I'd be taking.....

    Actually I meant Weightman may end up more of a Jamie Elliott. Probably came across wrong in my post.

    I think I made that read Kozzy might end up like Jamie Elliott. Meant Weightman.

    Didn't like the Selwood style lean-to-the-side-and-drop-his-head into op shoulder for a 'high' free.  Umpire fell for it.

    Was just making sure he was fulfilling Toby McLean's Role.

    Loved what Weightman did last night . . . and it shows that many posters on 'Land were spot on in November last year. Having said that, I'm convinced we got it right with our early picks in 2019 . . . although time will obviously be the better judge of that.

    Small marking forward? 0 tackles, 0 goal assists.

    Bruce is now a comical announcer.  He's truly hopeless.  His fawning for Weightman was on full display.

    It was a good debut, however, they overlooked his poor kicking - other than his great first goal.  Small forwards can vary greatly and Pickett is more the type we need.

    Just on McAvaney.  Try listening to him commentate and count the number of times he asks a question after he makes a statement.  You won't believe how often it happens and nor will you be able to correctly remember the final tally.

    Here's a taste of what I'm talking about:

    He's truly the pits and you'll never listen to his commentary the same way again.

    And he does it EVERY single game.

    6 tackles and 3 score involvements vs 0 tackles and running around packs waiting for a lolly?  Kozzie>>>>weightman.  That haircut could only get a run in the Western suburbs

    Someone on Demonland pointed this out a few years ago and ever since then I can't stop hearing it.

    Drives me bonkers!!

    As an aside, I actually don't mind BT so long as there's no "Lloooyd" playing. The pronunciation is insufferable.

    No. Because he is a completely different player to Weightman.

    When I spent time with Spargo at the bushies, he played his best footballer as a midfielder. He was voted best player in the under 16s championships when he was playing as a full time mid then resting up forward.

    DD what's your thoughts on Spargo playing a similar role to Caleb Daniel.

    Spargo made some very good decisions with ball in hand during 2018

    He should have been retired 5 years ago, He's a festering joke. No idea about the game. And we have no interest in listening to him prattle on about carp.

    Well commentated Dennis, I mean WTF even is that?

    Thanks Duck, Lingy. He's a fawning sychophant.

    I can't stand Bruce. BT is good value, love his roaming BT segment, and even funnier that he did it at Rick Levers wedding.

    With BT, only one player has a first name “Orazio Fantasia!”  Everyone else is a surname or a nickname “The Bont!”  Just call the game you bag of [censored].

    “Unctuous” is a nice description of his style. Your correct, he really should have retired years ago!

    But back to young Weightman:  another product of the Hailebury College football factory! They churn ‘em out down there!

    Already kicked in one game as many goals as Pickett has for the season. I'll take the guy who kicks goals thanks.

    And he hasn't got close to having the impact on a game that Pickett has in terms of his team play.

    I'll take the whole package, thanks.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
