There should be automatic financial penalties for players who wish to break contracts. A portion of their future club contract is returned to their previous club as compensation. They still will be well paid anyway so canโ€™t moan about hardship.ย

Ah well itโ€™s was fun while it lasted maybe we can merge with North Melbourneย

McVee already flagged he wants to return to Perth. It was a very early interview before he'd found any success. But I expect it to happen one day once he has adequately increased his worth to be able to make the requestย

Anyone can say anything and we have a meltdown?

We need to invest in a club creche to better support the likes of Kozzie and ANB in their transition to fatherhood and provide space for Christian Petracca to feel loved and nurtured through cuddles and story time.ย  ย

If you're talking about game day we'll go into negative attendance figures.ย

Yeah it was a long time ago - I'd need to scour the net for every interview McVee has ever done. Might have been a pod actually from memory, early on in his career. Said he'd like to return to WA one day. Could have meant post footy and he was very early, but pricked my ears at the time.ย

Next to the club rehab centre? We'll have a village, rather than a training base.

No, but there's a a fair bit going on at the MFC right now

The Media must hate us. They didn't go after Tyson Stengle from Geelong when he had that incident in Geelong a few weeks back. It was barely reported. However, they come for us repeatedly. Why are we fair game to them. Now they're suggesting Kossie wants out with 3 years left on his contract because he's homesick. Ignore that his partner is very close to her sister who's also in Melbourne and that Kossie has family in SA & WA so where is home? Also that his uncle Byron encouraged him to accept our offer which he did. So because we were sympathetic to Alex Neal-Bullen, we'll open the floodgates. I want us to take a stand.

Premiership glory has covered the cracks...

Perhaps we were all a little to bit happy with ourselves...


5 days since our season ended and this is already worse than our last off seasonย 

Not sure we will make it through another 6 monthsย

We need Goody and Perty to get on the front foot and double down on their last double down about our culture being great before we lose control of the narrative here.ย

Is that the sound of rapidly exiting footsteps on the gravel I hear?

For what it's worth, the apparent talk from outer circles of the club is he won't be leaving. The homesickness is very real, and the club and his management are working on plans to help get him back to family more often, but there's been no indication he's actually wanting to ask for a trade. Take it as you would from a new Demonland member such as myself of course, and I only post this as rumour, but hopefully it is indeed the case.

His family, at least his immediate family live pretty far from Adelaide and Perth. So I imagine the homesickness will be there regardless of where he lives.ย 
I have no doubt he will end his career elsewhere, but everything Iโ€™ve heard recently is that Kosi is happy at Melbourne and loves Goody and his partner is happy here too.
I also donโ€™t think his manager would come out and shut down trade rumours a week ago, if Kosi was telling him he wanted a trade.

I doubt Kosi only got home sick on Monday.ย

Yes, very good comments. I think perhaps the scenario has been he's gone into the exit meeting and during the conversation has perhaps asked what more could be done in terms of him seeing family more often during the year. It would not be completely surprising that a leak from such an intimate meeting would eventually get wires crossed in the factual information.

I am more concerned about who is doing the leaking.ย 
I know Trac and Kos used to be very close. Did he mention something to him and he leaked it to make it look like our club is imploding?

Surely not!ย

Maybe the club shouldโ€™ve just posted transcripts of the exit interviews to reddit - how is all of this stuff leaking!!!!

Good question. Who the hell is leaking this stuff? And why? It can'tย  all be a media plot. Hard not to escape the impression the joint is run by buffoons. An impression reinforced by Goodwin's feeble, platitudinous pressers and a president who appears to have taken a vow of silence.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmyโ€™s inclusive bannerโ€”"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwoodโ€™s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.ย

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
