How Many Weeks For Kozzy?
Gross miscarriage of justice.

How Many Weeks For Kozzy?
Iām outraged by this call. It is just so wrong! I thought one week would be tough given Mooreās complicity in the accident, but when the word āconcussionā came into the equation, I was half prepared for that outcome. However three weeks is completely beyond the pale. Itās outrageous and totally unjust! We simply must appeal!

VOTES: Rd 24 vs Collingwood
On a night when there were very few shining lights wearing red and blue: 6. TMac - very reliable in an undermanned defence. Capped off a very solid year, after many of us thought that injury and Father Time had caught up with him. 5. Gawn - leadership by example is what weāve come to expect from Max, and thatās what we got, from the start to the final siren (I loved the passion / determination in his eyes when he addressed the players immediately after the lightening break). Another AA coming up, together with prestigious Demonland Player of the Year. 4. Chandler - often maligned, but I thought this was one of his best games for the club. Has made good progress this year imo. 3. Salem - solid game, but spoiled a bit of his good work with uncharacteristically āiffyā disposal. Having said that, he probably chose some more difficult options with a view opening up the field for our boys, and, in the circumstances of the game, you canāt blame him for that. 2. Pickett - a typical Kozzi ālive wireā game. Our only forward who always looked dangerous when the ball was in his area. Unfortunately, it didnāt get in there often enough. 1. Rivers - got a fair bit of the ball, but ābutcheredā it too often. Still a solid game from a player who is still learning the trade

Greg Stafford departs Melbourne
Thanks Dannyās. If thatās the case, itās pretty clear that Adem Yze liked what he saw of Staff at the Dees.

Premiership Hero Ben Brown Retires
Benny has not only been a great footballer across two clubs, but from what Iāve seen and heard, heās a gentleman of the highest order and an outstanding human being. This is a very rare combination of personal traits. Huge thanks Benny, and all the very best for whatever path(s) you pursue in retirement as a player.

TRAINING: Monday 5th August 2024
Thanks as always WCW! ā¤ļøš From your vids, the intensity seemed very ālow keyā ā¦ā¦ā¦ reminiscent of a captainās run, but with very little enthusiasm or chatter. Was the (seeming) lack of intensity typical of the whole session (?), or was it just a symptom of the bits you picked up on film?

VOTES: Rd 21 vs Western Bulldogs
Sadly, none of our boys were in the top half dozen on the ground, but they deserve some recognition on here. My take on the better Dees: 6. Rivers - did nothing to harm the plaudits heās earning as a future high quality mid in the competition. Needed more support. 5. Gawn - on one leg, but attitude and leadership under duress were testament to what weāve come to expect from Max. 4. Langdon - busted a gut, and ran up and down the wing providing options all night. We needed more like him. 3. McVee - again showed plenty of composure and touches of class under pressure. 2. JVR - showed enough to confirm why heās widely regarded as a future star KPF and back-up ruck. 1. Sparrow. - solid return to the ābig timeā. Dulled the influence the Bont in the second half.

VOTES: Rd 19 vs Fremantle
Casting votes today is very similar to my Year 6 maths exam ie. aImost impossible!! All of our boys lowered their colours, in a performance I seriously want to forget, but here goes: 6. May - under immense pressure all game given the amount of ball coming in, and the complete absence of our hallmark āteam defenceā. Battled manfully, and won or halved some contests. 5. JvR - worked hard, whether ruck or forward. Commendable effort against huge odds. 4. Petty - clearly not a ruckman, but battled hard all game, and contested marking around the ground (especially in the second half), was a worthy effort. 3. Langdon - ran all day (again!), and should be commended for his work-rate. 2. McVee - solid in the face of insurmountable odds. Showed his usual good composure when he had the ball. 1. Rivers - little influence as a mid, but improved considerably when he went to HB in the second half.
