Something is up with Kozzys Instagram. The club has deleted the “thick” post referencing him (not all kozzy posts) and Kozzy has deleted all his pics and references to MFC. Just has #36 on there. 

Weird. 

 
 

The thick post was particularly thick, we really don't have to descend in to such silly social media stuff. But I'm not entirely sold the 2 are related.

Excuse my ignorance but what is the “thick” post and what is it in reference to.

The club posted a picture of a shirtless and clearly bulkier Kossie with the caption Kossie Thick-ett.

Sounds pretty innocuous. Am I missing something? Apologies if I am and am being insensitive.

I saw the pictures in another thread. Can’t wait to see Kozzy tear through people this season and hope he ends up staying.

Is Kozzie offended by this saying or what's wrong with it. 

I was thinking that.

The common usage of a person being 'thick' is they are not very bright.  So 'Thick-ett' could imply such of Kozzie and therefore easily taken as an offence if not by Kozzie by those close to him or senior people at the club, on Kozzie's behalf. 

Sloppy wording by whoever wrote it and it shouldn't get past the club's editors of marketing material.

On that point alone I can see why it was taken down.

For the post to be deleted by the club someone was offended. It might not be Kozzy but the “Thick” reference could be interpreted as fat shaming or body shaming and the club is just being PC about it. 

Perhaps Kozzy came back out of shape, not my opinion as I think he looks to be in beast mode, but maybe he came back a bit heavier but social media didn’t get the memo and posted what they did and then were asked to remove it either by Kozzy or the FD. 

Anyway this is all purely conjecture and probably has no bearing in reality.

this is plausible too. 

I really hope a poorly worded social media post hasn’t soured the relationship between Kozzy and the club. 


TBH, when I saw that ‘Thickett’ post - I thought that it was unfair and mean and brought unnecessary attention onto his physique especially considering skin folds are an important metric for the start of pre -season.

Social media platform in the some of the AFL clubs are dead set [censored] cringe. Worse I've ever seen it. Remember the Freo one when they recruited Jackson?

Looks like we've just joined the party unfortunately. 

Do better Melbourne Football Club. Keep it simple and stop posting cringe stuff as you can tell from Petracca's response.

Yeah they should have just zombified Max and captioned it Gawn of the Dead. I’ll see myself out.

WOW!  That is really bad.

Making fun of people's names is not OK. 

It is worse than mispronouncing someone's name; something most people get offended about.  It certainly didn't please Petracca at the Brownlow when Gill kept misprouncing 'Petracca'.

Although I can’t be sure I doubt Trac was WTFing about the title Tracula. He was probably just creeped out by the image of him as Dracula drinking blood. 

He was however definitely [censored] off about the league boss not knowing how to pronounce one of the premier players in the leagues name. 


“Thicket” is also slang for the pubic hair which grows around a males crotch region.

Oh ffs. 
 

A harmless play on a name rhyming. 

If this is the crux of his account content being deleted I’ll bare my bum in Myers. 
One day we’ll all be banned from speaking. 

 

i loved the tracula post, nobody is making fun of his name, it was for Halloween

It's just a bit of fun Shaun.

Maybe someone from news corp is helping with our social media?

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
