I reckon Jackson coming back is still a big watch. His press conference was done just to shut down the noise. He was told to say the right thing so they could focus on the season.

If Freo had been smarter they would have kept Lloyd Meek instead of trading for Jackson. Ditto trading for Hogan & hanging on to Lachie Neale might have been an idea.

They got unlucky with Hogan

If Kozzy can put in another 3-4 performances like that (4+ goals) across the rest of the year and another 4-5 games with 2-3 goals and 20+ disposals, not only will he make his first AA but Freo will have to part way with a premium hand…

I’m talking LJ and 2x 1st round picks. Don’t forget LJs contract will be significant so his net value will only be equivalent to a single first rounder.

He is a good ruckman that has failed to reach the heights we thought he was capable of…

Too many feathers in Peter Bell's hat

Nothing to do with "unlucky".

They are obsessed with luring back high profile West Australians & it often blows up in their face or is poor value for $$ ie

Des Headland, Harley Bennell, Jesse Hogan & the Col Sylvia trade was also a disaster

Do you really think that the WA clubs are going to just offer him a 2-3 year deal?

He's going to be offered the world. This is just how it is for elite players now.

Agree, whist I fully understand what Redleg is getting at the player in most cases will always take the money.

He was a gun who had a massive personal crisis hit him as soon as he got to the club. It's pretty unlucky.

Ironic that you should mention Peter Bell because early on in Freos entry they traded away Jeff Farmer, Mathew Lloyd & Scott Lucas as well as letting Andrew McLeod slip through their fingers. Then they let Bell go after a handful of games & he became a champion at North.

Almost as poor trading as Footscray in the 1970's.

Charged yet again by the MRP. Third time in five games.

Although it was only umpire contact it’s getting a bit silly now.

I get the feeling the MRP is on his case every match.

Given the recent coat-hanger that got four weeks I reckon KP'S report must be worth five.

why any player would go 'home' to flagmantle beggars belief - they are continuously mediocre, at best

They had to get rid of him and Hoges will tell you himself it wasn’t a good move coming home. A lot more maturity now

Seems downright impossible if he hits his triggers though. Contracted till 2031 would make him worth more than Kozzie.

Apparently Michael Frederick might be on the out if they lure Kozzie home. I think he'd be worth a look. Super fast, great overhead, and great shot at goal. Think he can be a much better player than he is on the dockers. They don't use him well enough.

nothing is impossible these days i don't think

if kozi truly does want to go to wa, then we should be looking to strike the best bargain we can for ourselves - can't see that not including the likes of dog jackson returning 'home' to the mfc

Depends how much they want Kozzy

I've never once seen him lose his calm. He has a bad habit of bumping and that is literally it.

It matters, it needs correcting, but it is not some kind of personality defect.

Would love if we got him. He’s probably ahead for the riding start at the minute. Had a great start to his AFL career.

Might make sense too. Bolton and Kossie both play a similar role, splitting their time between forward and the middle with licence to roam. Need role players around those types of players not sure Reid is a role player.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
