Fantastic work by the club if this gets done. Genuinely could become a top 5 player in the comp imo.

He is already and mentor to boot.

9 years all up, and not playing for Port?

Kane Cornes will love this...

when or if butters signs on for another 7 years at port which he probably wont at this point kane will forget that narrative completely


Does Goody have to sign for 7 years as part of the deal?

I’d like it to happen just to see Kane Cornes head explode.

Great to have you back Steve.

Very very big money.

Am I the only one who finds this a bit strange with 2 years to run?

If the last contract didn't stop the speculation then why is this different?

I believe he's worth it but it's hardly no brainer.

Think the price is worth paying just to shut up that flagmantle facebook page.

Yeah, that's probably worth the price of admission alone

gives him guaranteed certainty about his future until his career has finished, and until his eldest child is about to finish primary school

it won't stop the speculation but - like the trac and claz contracts - gives us some degree of control over the conversation

It gives us 7 more years to refuse to trade him. It's very simple.

Kosi has also seen that in the last 5 years, we have always gone out of our way to accommodate his desire to spend extra time at home. I am sure there are clauses in this new contract that allow for that to continue to happen (eg- spend extra time in WA doing his own program in the off season etc)

Besides, these types of players demand these types of deals. You think Freo isn't luring him with a 7 year deal?

He isn't going to walk out and go to Freo for a hug and some slippers. He might be homesick, but he's not silly.

I wonder how much of the welfare\community support would be baked into the contract to make him feel comfortable and supported. I am sure the MFC would basically accept any terms that mean kozzie is a career long demon

You make the deal for sure but it's hardly a banker. I'd also want to be paying that kind of money to someone who wants to be here.

I do think Freo would offer a 7 year deal because you usually pay overs to attract players. I also know that history isn't littered with good examples of big money long term deals to keep stars at clubs. Wasn't that long ago that we decided to inherit someone else's mess in that area.

I think it would be a positive move, I'd like to see some money spent on glaring areas of the park and after lacking cutting edge yesterday it's very clear that Kozzie can't carry this forward line even on a million a year.

But yeah, probably dumb not to sign him.

Big Fella, Big Fella, Big Fella........I knew you'd be back. Bring your A game, it's getting pretty wild around here.


Pickett almost certain to sign per Ryan Daniels.

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.

That roving running goal late in the game was much more difficult than it looked. Sprinting hard at the boundary about 35m out, and he's just snapped it across his body.

He's just incredible to watch

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.

Had a mate from Melbourne who played in that Cairns Lions flag a couple of years ago, could not speak highly enough of Flash.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #7 Jack Viney

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
