But my only question, and I'd appreciate if it could be answered respectfully without being gaslit or accused of not watching/knowing anything about the game, is if the idea of the deal is to protect our bargaining power in future trades then why would it be a terrible idea to exercise this right now with 2 years left on his current contract and make this offer in 12 months time? Is it a case of his price only going up? Being super proactive and striking while the iron is hot?

There are a number of reasons

1- When he has only 1 year left on his contract (next year), we have a lot less leverage

2- Signing him now allows us to plan our cap for the future and know what money we have to offer any free agent or player we would like to chase in the trade period. You'd hate to overpay some B grader from another club only to then not have the money to keep a generational talent like Kosi later on. Also allows us to put extensions to the likes of Lindsay, Langford, Bowey etc.

3- Securing Kosi gives other players we might be chasing the security that we have someone of his quality on our list for the next decade. It makes us a more competitive side, AND it puts to bed a lot of noise around our culture etc. If players of his ilk want to be at the club, it says a lot about the club itself. Don't underestimate how much the Trac debacle last year cost us at the trade table!

4- You strike while the iron is hot. Kosi is obviously happy, loving his footy and playing great. He was willing to talk so you talk. Plus imagine if we wait until next year, the way he's headed he would be worth even more money!

    Whilst some might not like the length, you can’t argue the money and just imagine how you’d feel if he was playing at Fremantle next year or the year after. Sit in that pool of sludge for a moment. Personally I think it’s a powerful statement by the club and Kozz. All power to them!

    Massive MASSIVE credit to our club, that everyone loves to pot and tell you has the worst culture.

    We have gone above and beyond to make Kosi and his family feel embraced, loved and and looked after.

    This contract is a testament to their unwavering support of Kosi from day one, most especially Goody!

    Just once, try and have a good day as a Melbourne supporter who just secured the signature of one of the hottest players in the game.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
