Kozy on Selwood

Say what you like about Selwood, but he’s been a champion player, who has set and driven standards from the day he was drafted to Kardinia Park.

Players like he Hodge, Hayes and Kirk are a rare commodity who change clubs.

Would have loved to have had him

    Agree, he has been a champion player no doubt. His record shows it...

    A Kozzie taking down Selwood thread, that becomes a TISM thread. What time to be alive.

    Although it does need more Les Murray.

    And did you see Selwood give Jonesy a friendly pat on the back when the ball went out of bounds.  I think they enjoy the contest,


    pretty much the same age, grew up competing against each other at school athletics carnivals where Jonesy had Selwood’s measure as a junior.

    I totally understand and agree with @Pennant St Dee that Selwood is a champion and future hall of fame player who should be respected. 

    However there is a strong distaste for him especially amongst the players especially within games. Every week I see players giving it to him. I even noticed Sparrow give him a nice shove after getting him in a tackle where he was called for throwing the ball.

    It might simply be that he talks a lot of [censored] out there or the well known narrative around him milking/playing for free kicks but in the heat of the game as others have mentioned these things happen. It's all part of the game.

    Only one I don't love is when a defender is beaten in a forward marking contest or gives away a free kick and while his man goes back to take a shot another opposition player will come and really rub it in. Unless there is malice I don't really like it.

    Yep, an absolute champion and an exceptional leader. Would also have loved him at the Dees.

    That said, I do get a kick out of seeing his face when we beat them.

    Agree, I dislike C.Scott and Selwood intensely but if I was a Geelong supporter I'd love them.  Scott's press conference after last weekend's match was very good.

    Selwood to me is like the Eagles, you don’t like them, you love beating them, but you have to admire them

    He was involved in plenty including  many of their chains forward, particularly off HB.  Without Selwood they probably lose that by another two or three goals.

    While his slippy arm raise is annoying it still works after all these years and so many players still haven't learned or at least try to attack him lower at the hips.

    There is by-play in every match.  Some teams more than others.  Joel dished it...Kozzie gave some back.  Kozzie may well have dished it out first after that half time goal and we just saw the retaliation from Selwood thinking he initiated it.  Who knows who cares.

    Regardless, good competitive stuff that builds rivalries i reckon.  And one is definitely building here.  I for one am loving our matches against the Cats since we rolled them twice at the end of 2018 and again on Sunday.

    You beauty Newc!

    Yes his press conference was a ripper wasn’t it. He was honest in his answers but without being cliched. He was interesting to listen to and entertaining. It is a difficult line the coaches have to walk, particularly with the emotions still running high, but he seems to be able to do it.

    I think Viney has also had a bit of history with Selwood. I remember the story of when he spent most of our victory against them at Kardinia Park whacking into Selwood in 2015. After Selwood had to get patched up, Jack's priceless and facetious quip was 'Why do you keep bleeding?'

    Lol

    We didn't roll them TWICE we last at Kard Park by less than a goal then beat them in the Elimination Final.

    great player but he's ducking and playing for high free kicks is a big part of how he will be remembered by a lot of fans.

    They have who can run the slowest races at athletic carnivals?

    If so does that mean Jones finished behind seleood?

    Huge Selwood fan. One of the best captains I have ever seen, and has single handedly - on numerous occasions - dragged his team kicking and screaming over the line for victory.

    But my daughter and I went to see the final v Geelong in 2018, sitting near the boundary. We witnessed his whinging, playing for free kicks, and getting stuck into opposition players after the ball had gone. I can't help but be impressed with him as a footballer and skipper but can't stand all the other c**p he goes on about.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
