A bit of a joke... Freo not willing to pay the dollars or give up the player.

Now the media can move onto Harley R

PS: I'd almost be happy if LJ moved to Geelong.

☠️Geelong have plenty of salary cap room. Ffs. Should add either Reid and Rowell to their list next year. Paying Bowes $800,000 a year in forward contract too. AFL will look the other way.

Dogga at the puddy Tatts would make me so annoyed

Annoyed!!

Armed Rebellion more like it…

Love having my namesake Aaron Davey back at the footy club of late. Done some amazing things for Cairns Lions as a coach and even took them to a flag of recent.

fair whack o change

7 year deal offered, which would make him one of the highest paid players in the game

I guess we will see if money can make up for home sickness.

Kosi can set himself, his partner, and his daughter (and future children) up for life.

He won't get that money at Freo, as they simply don't have the cap space with Young, Jackson, Brayshaw, Serong, and Bolton all taking up significant cap for a very long time. Even an extra $200k a year, over 7 years, so a ludicrous amount of money to walk away from. Careers are short, and life is long.

He'd be silly to turn this down.

agreed

and, ultimately, the contracts ain't worth much these days - if at any stage he wants to go to wa / sa to be closer to family, trades can always be negotiated

Thats a laughable excuse. Any club would find the cap space required for a player like Kozzie if he a) wanted to play for them b) the had the picks and players to enable a deal.

Agreed. Kozzie will be the best small forward in the league. Just needs to iron out a few more rough edges.

Dees have to splash the cash for him!

Im 100% in the keep Kozzy camp. This feels a little too long. A 5 year extension (on top of the 2) would have been more ideal. At the end of the day its probably what it will take to outdo anything that Freo may throw his way.

What if all this noise was just to spook MFC and that GW was right from day 1.

Asap plus ....


I've seen the three best players to pull on boots in the last seventy years Baldock, Jesaulenko and Flower and he is better than all of them

Just bearing in mind he is actually playing in todays conditions.

9 years seems a lot but I’m guessing we wanted to table an offer that no team could beat in terms of value or length.

One of the very best in the comp, can swing a game by himself amazing to watch and will put bums on seats for the next decade.

Thought you had it wrong... but you're right

Way too long

Practically if he wants to go to WA only the Eagles could come close to matching this deal and giving us the necessary trade capital.

Edited by Diamond_Jim

9 years all up, and not playing for Port?

Kane Cornes will love this...

 

i think he is definitely worth it.

not much more the club can do.

up to kossie now

Interesting that the offer has leaked.

It was probably intentional in that it was designed to blow the competition out of the game.

Hope we wrap it up quickly

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
