The issue is next year when his current contract expires. Don't think I can stomach another season of speculation and distraction like we just had with Jackson

Yep I know. But Port will have to use their future picks to secure JHF. Kozzy would demand at least 1 pick in the top 10 and an early second rounder.

Still, hopefully they get Kozzy signed and secured after trade period ends.

    Cornes clearly knows something. He wants a long and successful career in the media and he won’t last long in the caper if he’s flat out making stuff up.

    There’s no way though that Port can satisfy our trade demands given he’s under contract and we’ll be asking for some serious compo.

    If Kozzy is unsettled then we have a heck of a job next year of retaining him after 2023. Our forward line would be so bland and meh without him.

    There was a false rumour floated by Clarry's management two years ago that he wanted to go to Carlton. This was purely a negotiating tool in order to boost Oliver's future contract. This could be a similar situation here with Pickett.

    Clayton had genuine interest in going to Carlton...

    If Kysaiah leaves. What or whom do we get in return...

     

    If you look at their returns, Butters and Rozee would not get the deal done alone. Seriously. It'd have to be Georgiades *and* Butters.

    I’d say he’d last 30 years doing that.

    The real danger to his career is if he has to limit himself to facts and avoid click bait. He’ll be replaced in 5 minutes by the next ex player desperate to stay relevant if he did that

    1. Frog's droppings; he admitted that he made it up. Then went on to double-down on 'the rumour'. 
    2. Frog's droppings IS the caper.

    Ha. Ha. 

    You bump a thread with some flippant remark and call it satire.

    Not funny.

    As a positive - Port have 0 currency next year - so there goes that move for them.

    He has a partner? Might be time to make the leap… I know when I moved in with girlfriends it came with very good, mixed, sometimes bad results. I’m sure it will be great, meh, lead to him wanting to leave the state.

    Happy for Kossi to go actually. We'll have your F1 this year and next and throw Mitch Georgiades as the steak knifes.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
