@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.

    One thing is for sure….STOP DRAFTING PLAYERS FROM WA and SA

    Were the victorian options going to help us win a flag over Jackson, Pickett, Rivers and ANB?

    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.

    The report says he's homesick and management and the club are confident they can work through it.

    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

    • 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 defeat  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 Footscray’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 week’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.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      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.
