Should we expect Kozzy to be suspended for that head bump?

I can’t imagine after the week of lawsuits happening that the AFL hasn’t had a word to the MRP to be harsher on hits like this. 

I’d be shocked if he didn’t get a week. 

 

3 goals in front and couldn't have played worse up to the 20 minute mark of the quarter. Hopefully 2nd half is better.

Also huge respect to Brodie Grundy.

Ran in with such intense to stick up for Kozzie in that scuffle.

All while English was getting ragdolled by Spargo and Bowey 😂

In super slow mo it hits his chest and then the rest hits head area and he gets straight up, I would normally say he prov gets one, but no concussion, played game out, initial contact is to the chest… 4 weeks.

Loving our attacking style of footy when we get that run going we look super dangerous like 2021 again

Yep. If he flattened out Smith it would be worse. in a week that ex players are putting a case together & with the AFL trying to cut out the head high contact he'll get something 

He'll get weeks unfortunately.  

Can't be doing that in time where concussion is a very sensitive and serious concerning matter.


Great to see our women’s team doing a lap of honour. And getting a good reception

It looked like he may of been protecting himself but I think he may get a week.

Not sure it was head ? More chest area

yep surprised if only a fine but hope so

A couple of observations from the couch:

We look much better when Max holds his marks.  (#Captain Obvious)

Grundy needs to vary his tapouts in the centre rather than directing it behind him (ie towards the Dogs' goals) every time which the opposition are pouncing on.

Pickett might not get suspended.  It was shoulder to shoulder I think and Smith bouncing straight back up will be in Kozzy's favour.  Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if the Tribunal gave him life without parole.

It's a typical Demons v Dogs game with momentum swings.  Be nice to bury them in the 3rd quarter.

sadly I think I agree. didn’t make head contact though so might get lucky. it’s a bad look , it’s early in the season so he might get made an example of.

I think Libba mostly gives his all.

Ha ha I understand what you mean. But we need him on the park and Byron was a star but people forget how good a player he was.

Everything was a dumpster fire until they put those two and Gawn in the middle and then we started to work. We just can’t do without them. They are the most talented duo in the AFL. Their chemistry is outstanding. 

Yeah it was, but Viney allows them to play attacking football knowing thedefensive side is covered.

Already a big picture in the Age

Flush on the chin by the looks of it

Kozzy will probably get a few weeks for that late hit. 

 

Just like Uncle…


They're talking a week on TV for kozzie.

 

I think there's a massive argument that his intention was to hit the shoulder and he got 95% there- a free kick downfield for a late hit seems an appropriate penalty 

I don't think Daisy was there in the lap the girl's did. She was the captain & that could have been her final farewell. Bit disappointed 

I hope it had nothing to do with geelong.

He will be a big out. Stupid act. Brain fade.

I know that was a great comeback but I don't think we are even playing that well yet.

Four to five impacting the game as yet. 

Defence doing well without May.

Expecting an even bigger third.

Go DEES

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
