Loved hearing and chanting that on  game day.

Could be i'm losing my hearing slowly but appears to have dropped away as a chant of late for some reason.

On the contrary! We have a young guy in the DA who leads that chant every time Kozzy kicks a goal. Everyone in our bay joins in. This kid idolises Kozzy and always has, so this morning I messaged him asking if his vocal cords are primed for another four years. He kept it cool just replying “Yep” but I know he’s probs still cartwheeling around his house. 😂

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 Cl

Yeah. He does the “KOZZY KOZZY KOZZY bit and we do the “OI OI OI” bit. It’s his thing. Nobody would ever take that away from him. He’s so proud to lead it. This weekend it will be extra special. 🥰

edit: after last year’s Alice match, poor fellah couldn’t speak for a couple of days. 😂

I wasn’t on DL at the time but I’m pretty sure the Jack Watts thread wouldn’t have had a happy ending. 

I think you’ll find that getting Fritta with the pick we got from Watts has made it indeed a very happy ending.

When Jeff Farmer left the Dees it honestly felt like someone had gutted me. He was the teams excitement machine, a key reason to attend the football, the wizard.  I was dreading something similar with Kozzy. How could we possibly lose another player who was so exciting with that air of magic and anticipation?

His signing goes a long way to filling that hole. I can’t wait to see what he produces over the next four plus years ahead. Thanks Kozzy.

Why is Chin called Chin? Is there a problem with his Chin?

The Tom Scully thread still holds the record.

How dare you mention that name on a happy thread.  How dare you.  😠

Jackson on the other hand kept us in limbo, underperformed in the process

I don't buy this.

I've seen it posted a lot.

If he underperformed last year because he knew he was out then there would have been a major bump in his performance this year.

There hasn't been.

If anything his game has dropped off this year.

Love Kozzie, love he's re-signed. I love watching our Indigenous players, all of them, from any team. Some of what I see is magic.

 

By the way, does anyone know how Neville Jetta is travelling with the E Coli Wobblers? I would have loved for him to stay with us in some capacity.

Doesn’t help that he’s playing for a dumpster fire of a team in the wrong position tho. 
Was not the case last year.

"After almost 22 years, Pickett has spent less than 1% of his life sure that he will re-sign with the Demons."

"After almost 9 months pre-natal, Pickett has begun being born in only the last 24 hours."

Meanwhile, if the relief of the decision being made produced a 3 goal & 3 goal assist game, we need to consider the possible AA competition for relaxed and comfortable Pickett in the 'actual small forward' role;

Papley, Green, C Cameron, Rankine, Higgins, and... Chandler!

It survived on the night of the 25th of September 2021, I think it’d survive anything! Which is great since it may cop a hiding come the 30th of September this year!!!!

Nice one.

You may be closer to the truth than it might seem.

I reckon lessons from last year have been learned and the team will motor along nicely , some losses being inevitable, but commentators around mid- late August will be remarking about the Dees being the team you don't want to meet in Week 1 of the finals.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
