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

    • 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 side—the Tigers—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? I mean by “they” 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.It’s no secret that the Demons’ 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. 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 Bryan’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 winning 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.
