Kozzy Homesick & Wants to Leave?



Recommended Posts

@Adam The God if Koz and Trac both leave, how hyperbolic is it now to suggest this club will fold?

completely ridiculous

we're one of 18 teams in a domestic competition that doesn't have relegation

if he wants to go, go

if players don't want to be at your club there's no point trying to hold them

This is dramatically opposed to what I’ve been told. 
And also goes against what his manager said only a week or so ago. 
 

I would take this with a large grain of salt

He wouldn't be any more homesick than he was, but he may see this as an opportunity to go. I'm sure many others will.

As someone who regularly attends Adelaide Oval the idea of Port or Crows fans cheering for Kozzy will send me to a therapist.

True, but surely we need to address the elephant in the room? There is clearly something in these cultural concerns. We'd all think it if this was happening to another club.

Things can change. In the last week a significant amount of water has gone under the Petracca bridge. Who knows what impact that has had on Koz.

It’s not at all outlandish to think that he’s changed his mind in the last week. 

No it is not. But it’s also not outlandish to think that he said he’s feeling a bit homesick but he wants to stick around and the media is just feeding on our dead carcass.

So what's the answer? Just sack all off-field employees and the board?

The media smells blood and is trying to squeeze the last drop of blood.. it’s a feeding frenzy. Pathetic.. I’m despondent at the whole show, but I have a special dose of disgust for the media is all this.

I can’t believe that with ANB going, Brayshaw gone, and Petracca losing his mind that the club would ever entertain a Kozzy trade. They would promise him the world to keep him.

Just enormous pressure on Goodwin and his allegedly strong relationship with the players

Well he has an extra three weeks that he can spend at home compliments of Jeff Gleeson.
 

Hope that helps he and his young family. Is a tough time to be away from family with very young bubs.

We will drop 10k supporters minimum if Koz and Trac leave .

I’m being a touch facetious, but losing Trac and Koz does huge damage to our marketability, let alone our chances of getting out of the bottom 6. 

PS if A-grade players don’t want to be here, that’s equally an existential issue for us.

Honestly, who is going to be next?

Rivers? McVee? JVR?

Heads have got to roll. Roffey, Pert and/or Richardson

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 request

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
