90% a psychological problem with Kosi and as such there are no easy answers or quick fixes. But, paradoxically, things can change very quickly from bad to good.
“I think it’s getting to the stage where his head actually goes down all the time. He does something wrong and goes: ‘s***, I’ve done that again. I just keep doing the wrong things all the time’.
Probably correct.
Is Kosi AFL standard.......thats the real question
He certainly was. I seem to remember his first year showed real promise. Seemed to be quite a skillful mobile ruckman. Would read the play very well. I thought he looked superior to Riewoldt at the time.

Kosi is gnawing away at his own self-belief. When you are in a mental black hole, there's no way you're going to give 100% effort.

The solution lies with Kosi alone.

"Paralysis by analysis" is a fair guess I reckon.

Either that or his body's stuffed, he's sick of the effort it all takes and he simply hasn't the desire to play anymore. It happens.

I don't buy the ongoing form slump angle. Yips come and go.

Apart from Nick and to a lesser extent Didak, that is a terrible top 10 draft... Judging by that, atleast Kosi is still in the system... :lol:

One swallow does not a summer make, but great to see the big guy up and up and clamming a couple.

The thing is as long as he does what he is asked in other areas of the game it is 3 goals we may not have got without him.

Therefore so long as he is presenting and creating opportunities he's been worth having in the team.

Milne's goal was perfect example. He went right, drew a defender. Thinned out the pack. Roo crashed it. 44 crumbs and goals.
