    My two big hopes for next season is another flag and for Kossie to sign a new contract.

    Footy has become a meat market with clubs, players, agents and the media all participating in the frenzy. It’s unpleasant  but that’s the way it is. It gets worse each year. 

    I am increasingly detached about it all and try not to invest emotionally in who comes or goes. Contracts no longer provide security to the player or the club. And speculation will continue to haunt the industry as player agents and the media have a vested interest in ensuring that a story keeps bubbling away. There will always be a core group of elite players that will commit to long term contracts but the rest will be fodder for speculation.  I would be surprised if Kozzy commits to a long term contract given the emotional tug of family. His value to the club will depend on whether his heart is at Melbourne or elsewhere.

    He should have been given midfield time to spark us last season and particularly finals ... no review needed to work that out ... l posted on her that l told goody and richo that at pre finals training and they totally ignored me ... choco agreed with me though

    One has to assume that the Club has done everything it could to get him to extend his contract before entering what is now the final year of his contract. I'm sure they would have preferred to have avoided another Jackson like circus but here we are again. Can't help feeling he's gone.

    I suspect you're right

    Freo has given Port the play book... Pick 16 anyone??

    Except Port have already given away their first rounder next year so at this point have nothing to offer.

    Is that not the playbook?

    Still hope he plays the majority of minutes in the forward line.

    We need to utilise his amazing goal kicking talents as much as possible. He can do things around goals that nobody else can.

    As for his re-signing, if it's not done by the mid season break or thereabouts then I'd say he's gone for sure.

    That is entirely premature in IMO. We have 3.5 mths prior to 2023. Let's not fuel the fire just because others go earlier!

    Feels a bit "if it ain't broke..." to me - Kozzy has kicked 40 goals for 2 straight seasons and is as dynamic as anyone in the comp around goal. Would prefer to see him stay forward TBH

    Sometimes bulking up reduces speed it will be interesting to see how he goes in the coming season.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
