    Kozzys home is absolutely in WA - Quairiding. 
     

    It’s true that he is homesick and has some genuine reasons for wanting to be in Perth. 
     

    it’s also true that he loves the club, coach and playing for Melbourne. 
     

    From WA yes

    Spends all his time in Darwin for obvious reasons

    I once saw Eddie Betts jogging down the street in Darwin. I didn't immediately realise who it was, because he was running on uneven broken concrete next to the main road with all the exhaust fumes and you don't think about AFL players being so close to the equator anyway, but I gave him the old-mate nod and he gave back a knowing smile. My conclusion at the time, after I realised it was 'the' Eddie pounding the footpath, was that it definitely had something to do with Wade Derksen, but now when I think about it a bit more deeply it probably had something more to do with Pickett and Shai Bolten being mates. I was on a bicycle though, so who knows? 

    Did the bike have a seat? I'd say no

    IMV, it's time we adopted a model closer to what's used in the US in terms of player movement. 

    Much bigger names than Clayton Oliver & Christian Petracca have moved clubs over there.

    LeBron, Shaq, Shohei Ohtani...the fans hurt, lash out and pine for their lost stars but they move on and stick with their teams. 

    To balance the power between clubs and players, clubs should be able to trade contracted players wherever they wish. 

    Clauses to prevent/control this outcome are commonly included in long term contracts for the big stars. Implementing this will have players and agents thinking about this risk when penning longterm deals and stars won't be so quick to wantaway when contracted else a CP5 could find himself at GW$

    Here's a radical suggestion: Everyone shuts up, knuckles down, grows up and puts their ego aside for the team and for their own careers. 

    We need stability, and that means people get on with the job of winning. Forget changing Pert. Forget changing Richardson. Trac stays. Kozzie stays. Oliver stays. Forgive the wrongs and show some maturity. 

    Yeah, someone is homesick. So what? Get a real problem...

    Cooney is a complete numbskull

    Watch our membership disappear down the drainpipe if any of this tripe happens - Jack Higgins ? Just wtf 🤬 

    I thought it was painful watching our season slowly get worse but all this trade talk of our elite players and apparent lack of unity is frankly depressing 

    Hopefully it’s all just BS

    Kozzy will officially ask for a trade to Port Adelaide this week

    Source is from someone who wouldn't b [censored] to me. Gave me the heads up due to me being a massive Dee.

     

    Have seen screenshots of the cover letter that had been written up by his Manager

    The wellbeing factor is the main reason to leave Melbourne

    Why Port Adelaide?

    So over all this garbage. Koz, Clarrie and Trac are in the privileged position of being able to play the game they love for a lot of money. They all signed contracts. They can just harden the f up, honour their contracts and play their guts out for the team and their team mates. They don’t own the game, they are just a part of it.

    Unfortunately keeping things simple is very very complicated.

    Just because he wants it, doesn't mean it'll happen.

    Especially if Houston is saying no thanks I'm not coming to Melbourne.

    If he does intend to request a trade, I don't think the request would come before the Best & Fairest.

    His management wouldn't put Kozzy in an awkward situation like that.

    You'd hope so, unless he has Trac's management.

    I will keep my powder dry until I hear it from the horses mouth or at least the clubs, same with Clayton & Tracc as this would be the biggest trade deal in living memory. Oh by the way How would they get it done.???? Gunna be a lot of egg on a lot of faces me thinks.

    Hypothetical - if Kozzy wants out, ends up at Fremantle, Andrew Brayshaw comes to Melbourne in a trade (rumoured to want out if Warner ends up there)

    This is where Houston would’ve come in handy in a trade with Port had we not scared him off.

    Geez if this is true, we’re going to be a seriously bland on field product without the mercurial Kozzie next year.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
