Kozzie has the X factor that makes you go wow & most of the X factor players are indigenous.  How lucky are we with Kozzie & Bennell in the one side to provide that !!!

Absolutely @rjay!

There will be games where he'll be rested, but for me he just needs to play as much games as possible.

Him and Jacko gaining more experience so early can only be good for their development. 

It's exciting to watch 'dazzle'.

They had some nice cameos today but with more game time they are going to be a real handful.

Weightman. Game 2. Ineffective. 4 possessions. Didn’t even know he was playing. 72 minutes.  For a small player in wet conditions, he was completely unsighted

Both players will be good in their own way. I dont understand why threads like these need to be brought up every single game just to prove a point. 

I liked Weightman in his draft year and he has all the tools to be a good small forward of the competition in years to come. Same as Koz.

Right now both Koz and Weightman are just young kids finding their way through their AFL journeys. 

I'll continue to enjoy watching both talents for what they are.

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

2 games for 2 goals vs 5 games for 4 goals?

Pretty foolish to judge 19 year old kids so early. Too much water to pass under the bridge. Both might not make it, or have 12-year careers.

Comparisons can be odious!

Give me Kossie anyday. His defensive efforts are way above Weightman although Weightman is a better mark.

Pickett has far better defensive pressure. He is running blokes down out of sight, creating opportunities for us - his presence alone creates fear in backman, and can result in turnovers due to anxiety (that isn't a stat). We definitely chose the right bloke. Pickett is already a jet, and already makes our side better. Weightman is going to take time. Looks like a good pick considering where he was taken. Could be a player for the bullies. Doubt he will have a better career than Pickett though.

Not sure if this is a media trolling of the highest order, or Weightman is in play:

Picket + Weightman would be a lethal combination, although the high pick cost would not be worth it. Tomlinson + 2nd rounder please!

Reckon he may be simply donating some of his old gear

He's an hour late. They close at 5pm. Should've ducked in earlier.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
