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.

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.

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):

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
