Kosi's Knee? !!
It appears that Kosi's form has dropped off ever since he hyper-extended his knee. I remember Dr Peter Larkins saying at the time that it must have done significant damage and could have "stretched" the ACL. Nathan Brown said on TFS last night that he thought Kosi looked sore & slow lately so there could be something in it. Also, Kosi is still wearing quite a bit of strapping on the left knee.
Thoughts? Stats? !!

Dunno about the that. Fair enough he would be sore, but aren't all players at this time of year?
He hurt his knee against the Dogs in round 11, he missed 2 games and then came back against the Kangaroos up on the Gold Coast which was arguably his best game for the year. He was also good the following week against Carlton. With Kosi it has to be all mental, he is good enough but rarely looks to be giving his all.

Yep short memory. Best game this year was after hurting his knee. Another excuse IMO.Eastern wrote:It appears that Kosi's form has dropped off ever since he hyper-extended his knee.

Please look at the date of this topic.SuperSaint wrote:Could not have taken that run in the last quarter where he ended up passing to Milne who ran into an open goal, if he had a suspect knee. He was not switched on mentally today, with some half-hearted efforts, for some disappointing reason. Maybe he was more concerned about self-preservation.

Probably means he's slipped back into bad habits.plugger66 wrote:Please look at the date of this topic.SuperSaint wrote:Could not have taken that run in the last quarter where he ended up passing to Milne who ran into an open goal, if he had a suspect knee.

He was tres ordinaire today.
Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell

Yeah so Kosi couldnt be frigged pulling his finger out...no big deal.
Boss Ross saw that he wasnt wired so being the genius that his is put him behind the ball and presto Kosi took a few grabs and felt like contributing.
Yeah he gets lazy but i think today was more about how the ball was getting delivered down forward than how his melon is ticking over. Let it be said that come deep Sept time he will be the man to stand up and play his part. We do have the luxury of swinging him into the ruck or down back if things are looking a bit lazy town but with Roo taking a bit of heat off him and with correct delivery to him he will be right as rain...have faith peoples Kosi has got plenty of tricks up his long sleeves !
