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

Iā€™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.Ā

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

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

    What I canā€™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 canā€™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.

    Iā€™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 Mooreā€™s waist. When Moore drops in the last second Kozzieā€™s feet are moved and he falls hitting Moore with his arm.

    Moore caused this but we know what will happen.

    Thanks Redleg. Ā  Best description of the episode yet. Ā

    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.Ā

    Not so sure about that. We wouldnā€™t make a good cricket team. We rarely appeal.

    Donā€™t think itā€™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 heā€™d committed to engaging Moore with his momentum, he canā€™t shift it.Ā

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

    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.Ā  Where Kozzy will be in trouble is the late action of raising his arm and hitting Moore in the head.Ā  I'll be pleasantly surprised if he gets off.

    A crucial year for Goodwin next year and heā€™s already behind the 8 ball before heā€™s had a chance to even review the season - Ā with Kozzie missing the first 3-4 weeks.

    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 tiresomeĀ

    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.Ā 
    Sometimes stinks.Ā

    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.Ā  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.Ā  Makes me sick.

    Yeah youā€™d have to wonder if they wouldā€™ve been so conservative if they had a game next week, as Moore wouldā€™ve copped the 12 day rule.

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

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      And just like that, weā€™re Narrm again. Even though the annual AFL Sir Doug Nicholls Round which commemorates the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture to our game has been a welcome addition to our calendar for ten years, more lately it has been a portent of tough times ahead for we beleaguered Narrm supporters. Ever since the club broke through for its historic 2021 premiership, this has become a troubling time of the year for the club. For example, it all began when Melbourne rebranded itself as Narrm across the two rounds of the Sir Doug Nicholls Round to become the first club to adopt an Indigenous club name especially for the occasion. It won its first outing under the brand against lowly North Melbourne to go to 10 wins and no losses but not without a struggle or a major injury toĀ  star winger Ed Langdon who broke his ribs and missed several weeks. In the following week, still as Narrm, the teamā€™s 17 game winning streak came to an end at the hands of the Dockers. That came along with more injuries, a plague that remained with them for the remainder of the season until, beset by injuries, the Dees were eliminated from the finals in straight sets. It was even worse last year, when Narrm inexplicably lowered its colours in Perth to the Waalit Marawar Eagles. Oh, the shame of it all! At least this year, if there is a corner to turn around, it has to be in the direction of something better. To that end, I produced a special pre-game chant in the local Narrm language - ā€œnam mi:wi winnamun katjil prolin ambi ngamar thamelin ambā€ which roughly translated is ā€œevery heart beats true for the red and the blue.ā€ >y belief is that if all of the Narrm faithful recite it long enough, then it might prove to be the only way to beat the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba on Sunday. The Lions are coming off a disappointing draw at Marvel Stadium against a North Melbourne team that lacks the ability and know how to win games (except when playing Melbourne). Brisbane are, however, a different kettle of fish at home and have very few positional weaknesses. They are a midfield powerhouse, strong in defence and have plenty of forward options, particularly their small and medium sized players, to kick a winning score this week after the sting of last weekā€™s below par performance.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeatĀ  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscrayā€™s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last weekā€™s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
