Darcy is now on a contract that most wouldn’t touch.

Takes 1 mark a game and kicked 4 goals in a season.

Slow, heavy, injury prone, can’t play forward and 6 more years at about $1m a year.

Enjoy your time at the Dockers Sean.

I'm sure he is.

    Starting with Brayshaw, would not bat an eyelid if he went! Gets reported and rubbed out too much. His ommisions in first 4 games are crucial.)

    Yes early in his career but he's changed his play a lot, so I don't really agree.

    Latest suspension was an absolute travesty. Moore slid low to take Kozzys legs out. 

    Moore should have copped the suspension. Koz just braced for impact.

    And yes it will definitely hurt us at the start of the season but it definitely wasn't his fault

    I think it is one of the most pathetic suspensions I have ever seen.

    One second before impact there would have been contact with Moore's stomach, as they both ran in for a loose ball.

    Then inexplicably Moore drops to his knees.

    The Collingwood supporting Tribunal Chairman struck again.

    Yep, Christian is an absolute joke as the MRO.

    Personally I am not fretting over anything that I cannot control, I’m going to enjoy going to the footy with my family members and surrounding supporters and barrack for the boys like my life depends on it I will enjoy the Demon Army over to my right and hopefully enjoy my 4n20 pie, get a seat in the Rydder Room at 1/2 time and hopefully see us win a final or three in ‘25. I will love Kozzie whilst he is in the Red n Blue and not so much if he’s not.

    We lack a small forward with Kozzy, let alone without him. 

    An elite small forward is a desperate list need if not 2 of them if Kozzy departs at any point over the next few years.

    Agreed. We should go hard at one in the offseason even if Kozzy stays

    Agree somewhat, but the hawks went for Ginnivan and then picked up Watson (note we would’ve taken Watson at the next pick). We do have to pull the trigger on someone we think can be a 30+ goal kicker as a small forward

    I'm thinking is poor Christian  intellectually incapable of filling his brief.

    But it is the old fogeys club.

    When Maynard gets nothing for ending a career and Kozzie gets 3 for an unlucky bump, the system is stuffed.

    The BS technicalities applied to get big club’s players off like Cripps, who ended a Lions’ season, are symptomatic of a money above all else based sport.

    It's a blow that we drafted for needs in 2019 and 1. Jackson is gone. 2 Kozzie might be out the door.

    We obtained good compensation for Jackson but he would have made a big difference in 23. The compensation is just starting to get going.

    That the club has been silent on Gleesons obvious conflict - most specifically the Maynard case - has turned me right off the club. Shockingly soft.

    Dare we say that there is an AFL CULTURE, and not just a Carlton Club crudeness.

    A pencil sharpener if ever I'm lead to believe.

    No where did I say they do. Just because they don’t “grow on trees” doesn’t make it any less of a need…

    We were very interested in small forward Joe Berry from last year's draft who went to Port Adelaide.

    Jason Taylor and his team made several trips up the border here to Wangaratta to interview over the course of the year.

    Maybe worth keeping an eye on over the next few years.

    Just like chicken man !

    Back to Kozzy if we do well and get to a preliminary, if he does go, we will get VG compensation given he has a three week holiday, it's time for a couple of others to show us what they have,

    If he wants to go, I guess you can't stop him.  Lets win the flag, then if he wants to go, let the WA clubs pay top dollar for him.

    I luv Kossy, but the season hasn't even started and already i'm sick of this thread. 

    I know it won't stop, so i'm opting out for my own sanity.

    We have to hope that Ricky and Roy are up to it and Roy gets onto the list.

    That then would give us the small forward depth, with Kozzie as number 1 of course.

    I have this feeling about Roy, if he can get on the list and get fully fit and totally committed, he appears to have that special talent.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
