surely we're not looking at bell for the ceo role??

I don't know. I assume the media linked us because he was out of a job and we need a new CEO

 

With an important season in front of this club, I will wait until seasons end to worry about Picket or any other move by players at the end of the season.

I enjoy watching Pickett play in the red and blue and hope I can watch him in our colours for a lot longer. However, this is professional sport and the players play for teams for all sorts of reasons. 

I, as a supporter, have followed the Demons ever since I can remember and will continue to do so no matter who is in the team or on the list. If Pickett, or any player choses to leave for another team, so be it. Swings and round-a-bouts.

I support my team first and then the players.

 

P.S. it will be interesting to watch the interaction of Kossie with the Freo players at the end of the game on the 15th Feb.

In terms of trade value, and assuming Kozzie doesn't have an amazing All Australian year, you couldn't expect more that what they paid for Shai Bolton. Essentially 10 and 18 to Richmond with a few things going back to Freo (11 also went to Richmond but they gave 14 back to Freo)

Bolton has an All Australian under his belt.

 

The difference being Richmond were willing participants in that trade as they sought to fast track a re-build (and Shai is several years older than Koz and was pretty average last yr).

I tend to think that Kozzie’s comment about wanting to play in WA with the Indigenous team has been construed that he wants to play for Freo. Poetic license ..Tom Morris ..Sam McClure are perennial offenders 

 

It's pretty obvious where he wants to be. I don't think it's been posted but he liked this post not long ago.

Pretty unprofessional behaviour to be doing that knowing it can be publicly seen.

Also talk that Freo are heavily into Ian Hill from Collingwood.

Norm Smith medallist that's getting paid a pittance with Collingwood ($400,000 per year)

And the Chad (Warner).

Contracted so one can play hard ball. We should be targeting some Freo players in return.

His other uncle seemed pretty keen for him to commit to MFC. We'll see.

If that's the case Freo are going to have to get really creative and involve a third or fourth club as they appear to be on the rise and will likely hold mid teen + first round draft picks for the next couple of years.

Or they could hand over Josh Treacy to solve our forward line woes, but they won't.

He also didn’t follow the MFC on Instagram up until sometime late last year, but has actively liked and followed the Dockers for a fair while. 
 

I had a few time-stamped screenshots but have seemingly deleted them.

Unprofessional? Maybe. Or perhaps he's got a sense of humour and is just trolling Fremantle and its supporters. 

I have no concerns about him leaving.

I was watching a small portion of the greatest game in the AFL era last night (which i do in times of stress).  

For those like me who couldn't actually see it live, it occurred at the end of the 2021 season.

On his right forearm Kozzie had inscribed the word "loyalty".  

I admit I hadn't previously noted it (despite watching the game more than once) but it clearly indicates he is going nowhere.

Well hopefully he doesn’t have a map of WA and $$$$$ tattooed on his right and left b-TT cheek

Surely they have a growing salary cap issue…

Doesn’t ever seem to be a problem for some teams 

I really hope Kozzy stays it would be a very bitter pill to swallow loosing both he and LJ to flogmantle 

It will also be devastating for many young demon supporters

It helps to have 'rusted on' sponsors who indulge a bit of (extra) nepotism. 

These days the AFL seems to turn a blind eye to such things.

Hey Im 64... and it would still be devastating. Kozzy is my favourite player and one of our most important.

Starting with Brayshaw, would not bat an eyelid if he went! Gets reported and rubbed out too much. His ommisions in first 4 games are crucial.)

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
