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?

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance.

    The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
