Operation keep Kozz 

Are they mates? 

Does anyone have any observations of these guys in action? Or if Burgoyne is over his injury run?

    His highlights were as a midfielder with pace and reasonably good disposal, he maybe the piece of the puzzle an outside midfield runner complimenting our inside powerhouses.

    His problem with injury and Covid would have stopped his development in his 3 years on the PA list but he played last year with some breaks showed he maybe over his injury and with a good preseason he may blossom.

    Must be surreal for Mark Williams. Coached his dad to their only premiership and is now a development coach of his son.

    Looking at his highlights I reckon he would make a great running half back.

    This has Choco's fingerprints all over it.

    Showed some pace and skill as a junior:

     

    That is not only pace, that reel shows white-line fever for the ball and the direction. Notice how he straightens up to a direction through gapping, and in turn, straightens up the whole team movements, as well, as a consequence? Even to the oncoming forwards readying for the 'receive'. Eyes up, always, entering the forward zones. Like it, not fazed by big bodies around him looking for action.

    That's very interesting. A connection like that can be the difference.

    Question for Kev Martin - did you see much of him? I'm really regretting not keeping an eye on him now but as we've said there was a lot going on.

    Anything to keep Choco with us another couple of years is a good thing 🙂

    Maybe Trent came for 2 reasons his friendship with Kozzie and Peter Burgoyne relationship with Mark Williams as well as recruiters like Kelly O'Donnell who look at players who were delisted.

    Can't see any real downside with giving this young fella another chance

    Has pace, good disposal skills and will be well coached under Chocco and Co 

    If he is one of Kozzies mates that's an added bonus

    Too many run ons for me to recognise him. Now I know his number 43. What I did notice was he was sided up with Kossie and there are quite a few first nations people around. Whelan has an offsider, and a run on #33, who is a whippet.  

    Later in the Monday session he was on the training bike. I assume they want to to increase his fitness levels and ease him in slowly.

    I thought I saw him getting a little physiotherapy on his hip area.

    This could really be great for both of them, Rivers isn't the slowest going around.

    Wow! nice to see a P.R.O.P.E.R highlight reel.  He looks a real chance based on that

    I like this move. neither player nor club has anything to lose and everything to gain. I'm happy to rookie list him and see what happens. he will be a good acquisition for Casey if nothing else and could be a smokey to play seniors if all goes right.

    Quite a highlight reel.  Very fast in running and with his hands  

    hope he still has the pace

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
