So true.

That's what I'll be reading about in tomorrows papers.

Sitting in the stands on Saturday night we were refelcting on how blessed we now our to turn up each week and watch the talent before our eyes and the passison within the team/fans/club....etc.

Thanks MFC.  Thanks Kysiah and friends(trac, max, Oliver...........)

Thinking about this on the weekend. Thinking about all those lifelong supporters that passed away before the 21 Granny and recent success,  and how blessed the rest of us are to watch our team with all its stars. I said to my boys recently that they need to appreciate and enjoy this period because this is a special time to be a lifelong Demon supporter.

    Can be injected into the midfield where he can cause the opposition a lot of problems.  So he's not a one dimensional player

    Sensational - more good news to come re Chandler, JJ….Lamb and Taylor should be knighted .

    Is that what you are hoping or you have intel?

    Chandler's a key re-signing for our future forward line.

    Now we can go to the G for the rest of the season and genuinely enjoy Kozzie's talents with the comfort of knowing that he's ours for many a year.

    He thinks he knows everything that jerk. I hope he's held to account on one of his many forums.

    If he went, I was going to pretend to be all stoic and whatever about it, but in reality I would 100% have cried and I don't think I've done that about a player leaving, ever.

    Just so happy now!

    I mean, just look at him:

    Take a bow Tim Lamb, really good work, especially getting it done before mid season when the angst on this site would have been at nuclear waste levels..

    Brilliant news, I happier now than I have been after our last couple of wins. 
    Have to admit when he didn’t sign before the start of the season I was concerned. 
    He’s just such a joy to watch. I think those on here that put his below par form leading into this weekend might have been on the money thinking it was contract related. His performance and body language on Saturday certainly looked more like the Kossie we know and love. 
    Such a great time to be a Dees supporter.

    You get the impression that Chandler loves the Club and is loving being part of this team.

    Not since Farmer would I have been so heartbroken to lose a player. I would cry and never watch him play again for fear it would cause me too much heartache.

    Beautiful words from Kozzy:

    "Giving back to my community and putting smiles on kids' faces makes me happy. I was once that little kid and it's special for me to now be giving back and doing what I love, surrounded by people I love..."

    Great tribute to family, friends, teammates and coaches.

    Seriously, Tim Lamb should get an OBE for his services to MFC list management.

    I love the relationship he has with Goodwin. Every time he came to the bench on Saturday Goodwin put his arms around him. You can tell he’s a very important figure in his life and is a key reason why he’s staying. 
     

    Kosi is a wonderful role model and example of what talent combined with hard work can help you achieve in life. He must be so inspirational to so many young indigenous kids. Having had a tough upbringing, he remained focused and is achieving his dreams.

    Fritter signed until 2026 too

    AFL: Bayley Fritsch signs contract extension with Melbourne until 2026 season (nine.com.au)

    Club doing an amazing job - what a contrast from the dark days when players couldnt get out quick enough

    Ta. Post duly fixed!

    As an aside, and at the risk of derailing the koz fest, outside of dees supports, is Fritter the most under rated player in the AFL?

    A relatively comparable player role wise is Jemery Cameron.

    Cameron is an undisputed star, and his numbers this season are unbelievable. I'm not saying Fritter is better, or even as good as Cameron.

    Rather, i'm using Cameron as a benchmark for Fritter. And when you compare their career stats , Fritter doesn't lose too much by way of comparison (its worth noting that Fritter played a big chunk of i think 2019 in defence):

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
