    Will NOT get a scrap of work done today. Nothing productive, all day, nothing. Soz, clients, but KOZZY HAS RE-SIGNED! Everything else will just have to wait until tomorrow.

    I’m whooping and crying like a crazy person and my son just asked me why I was so happy and did I just win Tattslotto. I said, “Better than that.. KOZZY’S RE-SIGNED!!!” He said “What’s a ‘Kozzie’.” 😂😂😂 Bless his ignorant lil heart!

    Great news... his development physically (Look at him now)  and experiences is really clicking this year.  He has become such a dangerous player over the whole field, not jus in the fwd half.

    Given how young is still is and talented, the future is bright as he makes such a difference to the dynamic nature of our side.

    I didn’t realise it was King's Birthday round coming up already!

    I can't begin to say how wrapped i am about this. I just love watching him play footy so, so much.

    Already one of my all-time favourite dee's player, only one demon player is ahead of him for me in terms of just loving watching him play, and that's the Wiz - and now he is dee moving forward i'm sure in time i won't be able to split them

    Big, big tick to the footy club for how they have managed this situation - and all the other recent big contract negotiations, including Jackson’s - which by the by is increasingly looking like pure genius.

    They have locked away not only our best players, but heart and soul players.

    Salem, Maxy, Trac, Oliver, Gus, Lever, Petty, Nibbler, Viney, May, Fritter and now Kozzie all locked in (not sure where langers is at contract wise).

    Add Rivers, Mcvee and Sparrow all recently resigning and Grundy and Hunter being in the first year of multiyear contracts and we are in fantastic shape list wise.

    That is all down to the off field team and is yet another reminder that sustainable on field success is not possible without quality governance and management systems.

    Honestly just the best news.

    He is a star, he is a marketing dream, he is a fan favourite, he makes kids want to come to watch football.

    Going off the statement it seems like the club involved his family a fair bit in this process which is very professional from the footy club. So kudos to them!

     

    And also, culturally appropriate to involve Aboriginal player's families in such discussions and processes (assuming that is ok with said player).

    The importance of involving family when negotiation with Aboriginal players (again, with their permission) is reflected in this quote from Kossie:

    “The club has embraced me and my family, and I can’t thank them enough for their support. Everything I do is to make my family proud and the respect and understanding my teammates and coaches have shown us means a lot."

    Great news. Wouldnt be surprised if his game picks up too now he has no distractions.

    Cornes will swing his attention onto the coaches and who will get sacked  first.

    He'll stick his fork into someone for sure.

    I've never been prouder of this footy club, keeping a list together let alone a successful list is no mean feat. 

    In the past there was always that one or two that had to be sacrificed when we thought we had something building. For the first time ever we have literally lined up all our crucial ducks in a row and got them locked away for years to come. This is an extremely rare position to be in and I can't thank Lamb and co enough for the brilliant work they do behind the scenes to make it happen. Drink it all in people!

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
