Of course you are. You would have nothing to post about otherwise.

I wish we could ignore these clickbait articles.

HA HA HA HA HA HA

Well that settles it then.

Melbourne has been assured by Kysaiah Pickett’s management that he is content at the Demons despite continual approaches from clubs across the country.

Pickett signed a new deal last April until 2027 and while he has spent time in Adelaide and West Australia growing up he does not consider either of them his home town.

Clubs including Port Adelaide have recently again upped the ante as they attempt to bring him back to the state where he lived with his uncle, Power legend Byron Pickett, for a time as he approached draft age.

But his manager Peter Rohde confirmed on Tuesday he had spoken with Melbourne football boss Alan Richardson as recently as Tuesday morning to assure him there was nothing to the speculation.

Pickett loves the city of Darwin and its tropical weather as an escape from the bitter cold of Melbourne’s winters.

But unless the AFL fast-tracks a 20th team into the Northern Territory before he retires, he will remain with Melbourne for the foreseeable future.

All Melbourne players have been disappointed with their response to a pair of straight-sets finals departures, flat they could not put together a deep finals run.

But as the Demons prepare to take on Collingwood in their round 24 clash on Friday night, his focus is on fulfilling his contract.

Ironically Pickett has just been spruiking the city in a fashion shoot for the City of Melbourne for splashed across his Instagram pages.

He and partner Ardu welcomed their first child in April this year, with Pickett enjoying a solid but not brilliant season with 34 goals after 40, 41 and 37 majors in his past three seasons for the Demons.

In other really cool news, even though Ed Langdon just signed a new contract, he will put his hand up for a Mars based team if the AFL brings one in..

Demonlanders every night worrying about a future Darwin team.

He was born in WA raised in SA went to boarding school in SA but wants to go to the NT? Yeah right

I read somewhere there were 1600 accredited footy journalists and only 730 registered AFL players

1600 people trying to be relevant. We thought last years off season was long......

I'm quite partial to Paris in the spring.

Kosi and I are therefore both leaving.

Kozzie comes across as a stand-up citizen with plenty of integrity.

I do not want to live in a universe where this eventually occurs. Every aspect of my life is filled with either Crom or Pear [censored] and I would have to go live in a cave somewhere. Curse my parents for moving to this hellhole in my teens.

Sounds like you need a raDeecal change of scenery.

Man the journalists now are f’ing hilarious. Kozzy would leave… if a fictional team arrived in the Northern Territory.

Wait no longer.  The request has been made.

Go home.  The other trolls are finding life under the bridge a bit lonely without you.

I’m sure clubs show interest in gun players all the time. I would be surprised if we hadn’t enquired on Butters for example

But you know, Kozzi just signed a 4 year deal so close thread thanks
