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.

Kozzy's "Heart Beats True".

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. 

Best news ever!!

Extremely happy with another 4 years of magical wizardry!

Never in doubt! 👏 The difference in how our club is run now from 10 years ago makes my heart skip a beat.


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):

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
