I actually thought Gleeson's article was reasonable and balanced, not just focusing on the negatives The point is that long deals, or big contracts, are not always wrong. They are always entered with the belief they are mitigating the risk of losing the player, not creating a risk. “Kozzy” Pickett’s biggest risk was flight – the attraction of a return to Perth, with Fremantle wooing him – and so the Demons have safeguarded against that. Pickett has become an excellent midfielder after being predominantly a small forward for much of his career, having played 116 games and kicked 182 goals since his debut in 2020. There are not too many small forwards who would draw rich long-term deals, but Pickett is one of them.

but has Kozzy liked the tweet?

The stkilda loss rankles more imho We would be 6-7 and despite the heartbreak of the 1 point loss to the Top team our season would still be alive and with some optimism

Any go through?

Sad thing is if we had won today as expected there would have been real hype and an exciting buildup to the KB clash but as per usual we couldn't hold up our end of the deal.

funnily enough just saw this on their matchday bigfooty thread Literally a bottom 4 coach and for some reason we think he's the guy? Please.

I wouldn't bother getting the dog

Thank goodness the cavalry arrived

At least the camp in Bright was a positive

GWS having a more match fit team played it's part in that last quarter.

Hope they didn't send him to the Epworth

not sure if anyone saw this interview with Jaspit Bumrah yesterday after the match? "A lot of experience and learnings. A lot of the younger players have come in, and the learnings will help us in future. They have gained a lot of experience and they will go from strength to strength. It is all about adapting and learning. We will want to take the learnings forward." Sounded very similar to some MFC post game press conferences
