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.

Stmj.

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.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
