Not only under contract, long term contracts. Can they go away and talk about other similar players from opposition clubs? Do you see all these drivle about any other club? of course, the AFL wants player movement, so that will continue to be promoted, players are going to come and go, and really good players like Kozzie will be chased every off season regardless of where they're playing. I understand the emotional attachment, but we just simply have to trust the club has the right things in place to hang onto guys. He's not going to be traded with 4 years to run on a deal unless we're offered something outrageous 1 Quote
waynewussell 6,976 Posted August 20, 2024 Posted August 20, 2024 Time for MFC to hatch dummy bids for several highly rated stars from other clubs... just in case they are wanting to come home, wanting to leave home, wanting to go fishing, want to start a family, want to get involved with a media career, want to get out of the fish bowl... want a set of steak knives... just bombard the industry with highly publicized feelers!!! 2 1 1 Quote

We've been linked to Josh Battle, Jake Waterman, Dan Houston, Harry Perryman, Issac Cumming, James Peatling and i am sure others publicly this season, so that certainly happens as well. I get it though, it feels closer to home when the club is getting slammed from all directions 2 Quote

Imagine the ongoing debate over whether he could or he couldn’t. Then some other genius could start a story over whether he might or he mightn’t. Edited August 20, 2024 by Redleg 2 Quote

Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted August 20, 2024 Posted August 20, 2024 Headline "Port interested in Kozzie Pickett after he has 21 disposals, kicks 4 and tears their defense to shreds single handedly" Not shocking they want him at their club given he dominates every time he plays Port. 1 1 Quote

I'd start a malicious rumor about them if they didn't also include a future third round pick, has to be a late one though. 1 Quote

Oliver has NEVER said he was leaving, nor has the club since last year. Viney is about to sign an extension. Trac has his own issues, and the club has told you multiple times he is going nowhere. Just because fans are melting down over the fake news about our demise, doesn't mean Kosi is. 2 Quote
