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.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
