Come on Kozzy. This thread needs to be put to bed. Sign the deal!

Nah, wait for another three months so we can get this thread to 100 pages of angst. 😅

    For what it is worth. A youngster at training yesterday asked Richo in front of 200 fans and over the P.A about Kozzie and where would he play. Richo paused and as luck would have it the question coincided with Kozzie entering the ground and he clearly heard the question. He gave Richo and the kid a thumbs up which Richo acknowledged.

    Theatre or a portent of what he has decided, I don't know but Richo was quick to point out that Kozzie had acknowledged. Richo replied that Kozzie is a much loved player loved by one and all at the club and that Kozzie loves the club.

    It's amazing that previous posters ignored this when it was posted not long ago. If he was leaving more likely likely he would ignore it and hurry onto the ground

    There is nothing in that interview to give us any hope. Sounds like they have done what they can and it’s now up to Kozzy.

    Unfortunately, I agree with you, in fact it gave me less hope ….. but I oh so hope that I am wrong……again…… just like I was when I tipped us to beat Brisbane and Essendon.

    Mitch Cleary on the tradies podcast stated that the deal with Kozzie from the Melbourne camp is that its really close to being done. There's been a shift.

    "Tracking the right direction" with the club and his family being on board.

    Talk starts at 7:55.

    When I saw the vision of Kozz and Trac in his hometown I also got the feeling that something was really starting to cook.

    If that's not cause to be hopeful I don't know what is.

    Rest easy DD.  It is just about done.  They’re just sorting a couple of points with the Dees. There is no other Club as a spoiler, just working through some small operational t’s & c’s with the Club.

    The benefits of having ridiculously long contracts with your best players is that they are suddenly very invested in keeping talent around them.

    When there is no escape one tends to want to drag others into the doom.
     

    ….

    That went dark quickly.

    Does seem like hes staying, the only question left is for how long?

    2 years wouldnt suit any camp you would think.

    4 years perfect. Will be at his peak by then and can re sign on big coin if he is an elite player.

    Based off absolutely nothing but general vibes, Kozzy has signed a 5 year deal and it will be announced tomorrow.

    (only saying tomorrow because how cool would it be if I was right?)

    Cheers mate, always good to hear from you!

    Makes perfect sense and I've always felt this was the case, pesky I's and T's to dot and cross.

    I'm confident we'll be getting some good news on this one.

    Fact or I’ll timed humorous conjecture? 😀

    Plenty of deals have been torn up at the last minute. 

    Terrific to have some insight from posters but until the club announces it I’ll remain cautiously (but very) optimistic.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
