Can we talk about Kolt?

He doesn't get to enough contests and he doesn't put himself in a position to receive the ball , seems to get stuck in no man's land , he needs to read the play better , link up more with his team mates, be in better position to be able to have an impact. He has to start to hunt the football, want the football , be first to the football, demand the football, he should also be at the drop of the football more than he is especially around goal .

He never seems to be in the picture when watching on tv and alot of the time you do see him he is not in a position to be able to have an impact.

    I think Demonland should shut down posters calling for posts to be shut down.

    Demonland having a policy is like saying seagulls have a code of conduct. Sure, they do — right up until someone drops a chip, then it’s screeching, eye-gouging, and a fight to the death over who played worse, Kolt or the Airplane.

    The policy is pretty simple. Don't open the thread if you don't want to read it.

    Just like eKaren you want to control what people say

    yep - i hope both are played until end of season ... while it pains me that Armagedon get our first round, thus us losing helps Dingy Hill, we have to play, play, play the battlers

    Just adding to this that Goodwin joined us in 2014 as the "senior assistant" anointed to take over from Roos, and thus would have had just as much input into 2014 and 2015...

    To the extent that either Roos or Goodwin had substantive input or a final say. There's an SEN interview with Tim Lamb post flag in 2021 where he credits the build to Jason Taylor and in particular, Tod Viney who "was really instrumental in setting the framework around how we would assess players and what we would look for and what would stand up in finals and therefore Grand Finals".

    Pretty sure that’s me, 48. Folks run the risk of getting banned for playing the man, not the ball so now they’re forced to allude to people when insulting them rather than directly insulting them. Certain posters are nasty bastards but at least they’re following the Demonland rules.

    Not directed at you.

    Its just sad and pathetic to allow people to uneccesarily find fault with a second year player who should be learning the game from skilled teachers- coaches.

    Its not his fault we drafted him

    Not his fault we picked him way before he is capable of playing at AFL level.

    If I was his him or his parents and read the talk here Id be out of the place as soon as I could.

    The Club stinks from the head down to some so called supporters.

    Quality human, who given a bit more time and experience, will also grow into the quality player that some of us can already see he will be.
    (he's just turned 20yo and played a whopping 18 games FFS)

    I'll look forward to digging up this thread in a couple of years time 🙂

    You're barking up the wrong tree.

    We all love Kolt & want him to be a great player.

    We are cranky because he has been badly mismanaged this year & was rushed into the firsts without any form or fitness.

    Really an appalling effort by 🤡 the Clown

    He needs to have a big and injury free preseason. But so do all players.

    Establishing yourself as a smaller forward is tough. Hard position to play. Kozzie tearing it up from day one just shows what a talent he really is.

    I like him. Can’t expect him to create magic in a forward line consistently leading into the pockets and always congested.

    A lot of Kai Lohmann in him imo. Not the quickest, but he is agile, he can leap and take good pack marks. A bit more baulk over the pre season and he can become a really good small/medium forward pressure player.

    Asides, first round pick. Worth persisting with.

    Im with you in that i too like him and think he can become a decent player with us.

    Though I disagree in terms of adding weight. I feel if anything he needs to strip weight as he looks heavy to me with his movement and agility.

    I lost all respect following his total BS at endless pressers & his refusal to acknowledge where the team was at.

    A 55 year supporter came up with Goodie the 🤡 18 months ago. I find it apt.

    I still believe in Kolt. An injury interrupted pre-season in your second year isn’t great. With a new coach and a defined role he’s going to soar in year 3

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
