Thanks for this.

Too early to call.

Ill just say its exciting to keep winning but also exciting to see just what Kozzie will do each week.

Get the feeling hes going to rip a game totally apart.

    Cyril...4 x Premiership Player

    3 x AA

    Norm Smith medal.

    An impressive career.

    If Kosie does that with us I will be more than happy...

    Kozzie is going great for a youngster, but to say he’s already better than Cyril is a bit silly. Cyril is a Norm Smith medalist and three time All Australian. Kozzie has a long way to go to be better than Cyril. 

    That said he’s on track to become a star like Cyril was!

    It has to Kozzie by a country mile. The old footy adage applies - you're only as good as your next game and Cyril doesn't have a next game.

    How some statistical article can get excited comparing 7 game averages agains a 30 - 40 game average is beyond me.  Wounder if you went cherry picking a 7 game streak from that first two seasons of Cryil if you'd find something where he's smashed Kossie in some stat or another.

    Don't get me wrong, I love Kossie and I don't even think we've seen the peak of what his 2021 season can produce yet, but comparing such dissimilar sample sizes of games is rather silly.

    The pole of who would you rather have is a bit silly too isn't it.  So 53% of the footy public would rather have a player in their mid-late 30s with a busted up body that 19yo Kossie?

    So Charlie Spargo is better than Gary Ablett Snr?

    He'd be happy with that.

    Oh, fer chrissake. Can we just wait until after Spargo's retired and see if he's involved in murky circumstances surrounding a fatal drug overdose before we start making comparisons?

    Not yet but he will be.
    Confidence growing in front of the goals every game.

    Love the statistical comparison but everyone is different . His chasing reminds of me Davey , his ability to do the unthinkable like Cyril , the marking of the Wizz and the likability of Betts .

    I thank my luck stars he plays for us and fingers crossed we will see him for a decade .

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
