kosi contract status

Post: # 942733Post saintly »

is it not funny that this is the 2nd time near the end of kosi's contract that he begins to play well.

last year of his contract.

is it a coincidence?

Who cares as long as he plays a blinder in the GF. If he leaves so be it


Another opportunity awaits!

I don't mean to ruin your theories there but I rekon that his contract negotiations have taken a pounding this year. His pay would significantly drop IMO.

He was very good sunday.....but for most parts has been utterly terrible for the entire year. One good game out of 10 hardly equates to him playing well to push his price up. Hopefully he does play a few good one's on the way home,for the teams benefit,and then maybe he will hold some value in october...

i would agree with you, however, do you remember when he had the 4 good games in a row, that was also on his last year of his contract. Based on the 4 games, he had a big increase in pay. He did not much after that.

Although it was GT that was doing his contract at that time. Not sure what happened after that.

He may be palming the ball to G.Ablett, next year, whom then goes on and hits Hunt on the tit for a goal!!!!!

Clear enough!!!!!

He means he has signed elsewhere. I will go out on a limb and unless he is Kosi, or from Kosi's family or his manager he or anyone else wouldnt know.

Thanks, I assume by saying 'may' instead of 'will' that it's an educated guess?

Very thin limb, more like a match-stick my ol' plugg, you'd be suprised who'd know, many in the media now the 14 signed players, it's that the AFL has put a media ban on the names being released, so I'm not alone when I say, it may have been leaked somewhere!!!!!

The AFL and clubs may be able to work with the media to ensure TV and Radio interviews are soft serve, but there's no way they'd be able to suppress that if it fell into a journo's hands.

So a club who has as many as seven young A grade 18-19yo potential forwards - Dixon, Shreeve, Liddy, Patrick, Magin, Coad, and Moss plus Nathan Ablett plus Karmichael Hunt as a project player who will probably play forward and which has a window opening post 2013 will chase a fickle big man of diminishing athletic ability who will be 32 or 33 when the club's window is open.

Yep. I can see your logic.

Come on. It makes as much sense as Rex hunt on acid.

Kosi ain't going nowhere.

If you want to build a GC hit list, find all the uncontracted's at every club and pick the ones who are 24 and under. Any older types will be midfielders. They have plenty of KP talent already.

I think 3:16 is suggesting he will play in the ruck...

Would that be Rex on the acid trying to make sense, or someone trying to make sense of Rex while they're on acid?

Re Kosi as GC ruckman: Zac Smith, Rory Thompson, Tom Nicholls and Tim Pluimer beg to differ.

Nicholls will take two years to get up to scratch and fill out.

The rest are well up to it.

And if Josh Fraser still gets an occasional game at a top 4 club, the others I mentioned would be close to AFL standard now.

Besides the same logic applies. They have project players already. They won't waste money or picks on anything that treads water.

Both, and at the same time!!

In different spectrums of consciousness of course...

Why would they care if he will be 32 to 33 when their time is due?

they will want to be competitive from the start. The state needs them to do well from the outset so getting players that will play for them is needed

Exactly right, sheer speculation
