Best defence would be that he was trying to kick the ball off the ground.

I’m not convinced he did a lot wrong. Bumps are unavoidable when playing are competing for a loose ball. But the AFL will punish him on the result.

Best defence would be that Kozi never goes to ground and always keeps his feet. Ablett Jr was the only other player I’ve seen do this, but Kozi does it even more so.

I can handle losing last night as we had a ton out (as they did too).

What I can’t handle is the knowledge all summer that our most talented player with the biggest point of difference will be making his season debut as late as Gather round under the concussion climate that we now live under.

We can’t possibly go unscathed against that mob and this particular player struggles with education when it comes to high contact and footballing acts that are obsolete, or at least putting himself in these vulnerable MRO positions.

I’m sure this will go as far as the appeals, so fingers crossed we get on the right side.

In the slow mo freeze frame before the hit Moore is standing up and any bump if there was one would be be to Moore’s waist. When Moore drops in the last second Kozzie’s feet are moved and he falls hitting Moore with his arm.

Moore caused this but we know what will happen.

Thanks Redleg.   Best description of the episode yet.  
 

Had this involved Daicos, Cripps, Cameron there would be absolutely nothing to see, in fact they would have earned a free kick for low contact.

Needs to stop letting the team down with these silly incidents 

Don’t think it’s fair to paint Kozzy with this brush this time around. Was doing what every player should be doing in those circumstances- engage your opponent, get them off balance and win the ball. Only difference here is that Moore disappears through the floor after Kozzy had moved to engage Moore. Once he’d committed to engaging Moore with his momentum, he can’t shift it.

This was very different from any of his priors.    Moore contributed 100% to this one.

He's stuffed because rightly or wrongly that's where tribunal decisions are heading, but if not the collective melt of Pies fans will be tremendous.

At this stage, over 70% of respondents to the poll think he will be suspended.

I don't think it's the bump as such that's the problem.  Where Kozzy will be in trouble is the late action of raising his arm and hitting Moore in the head.  I'll be pleasantly surprised if he gets off.

Agree, I'm not sure why he had to raise the elbow. That's the bit I didn't realise what he did until I saw it replayed.

It just doesn't help us or him being suspended again. In face it's getting a little tiresome

I hope the club asks for the medical report from the Pies. Curious that Moore was ok to continue to play before mysteriously being subbed out when the game was basically all one way traffic. 
Sometimes stinks.

I will be surprised if he gets off too because it is Kossie.

But I don't see why lifting your arm to protect your ribs and shoulder is dirty. We have just lost a player for the season to a spleen injury!

Raising your elbow is dirty, but covering your ribs is not.

In addition to Moore going to ground in an unusual way (sliding on his knees), the other two things in Kossie's defence are that 1) he tries to soccer the ball off the ground; and 2) he does not look at Moore.

Should get off, but won't. Sadly.  Meanwhile Maynard who deliberately clobbered a player who will never play again as a result and had zero penalty, had the audacity to take issue with Kozzie.  Makes me sick.

Yeah you’d have to wonder if they would’ve been so conservative if they had a game next week, as Moore would’ve copped the 12 day rule.

'They had a ton out'? DeGoey and Mihocek. Mitchell is cooked and McStay is bang average.  Who else? We had 5 AA superstars missing,  Windsor,Sparrow and Spargo. That's forgetting about Brayshaw and Smith who weren't able to replace. Sorry, no comparison.

At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.
