Post: # 958306Post saint58 »

Kosi has been a great player for us but its time that we need to move on and look what is best for the team.

He just is one dimentional and these days thats not good play Stanley or Walsh these guys will put in are big and exciting and can mark.

ITs getting to close to finals to carry any players now so bite the bullet and drop him.

Allso get Big Mc back patto did ok but not as effective up forward as mc can be.

Even put in Armo he is hard and can kick a goal.

I love Kosi but he just isn't getting involved enough, if Ross won't keep him in the ruck he should be dropped. Stanley and McEvoy offered just as much up forward if not more and they also can rotate through the ruck. No longer a walk up start imo, needs to earn it.

I always love the term "Kosi has been a great player for us"
Has he ?
He had a good half a season last year, but I reckon that was about it.
We like to give this guy a lot more credit then he deserves. Why ?

Because we've seen his best so we always hope he can get back to it. Sadly he will never live down being a No. 2 draft pick, winning the Rising Star award, polling 11 Brownlow Votes in 4 games in 2005 and kicking 48 goals last year.

well he kicked 60 odd goals last year for starters. not a bad effort. how many players in saints history have done that?

but yeah. hes played awful all year.

then there is the other fact. tall markin fwds done grow on trees. so they get away with more crap games.

but i reckon stanley provides more. so kosi should pull his finger out.

If he needs to be dropped, he will be dropped, if Ross believes he needs to continue to play, he will continue to play....it's quite simple really.

That is true. I think the point is he was kept before to keep structure in Roos absence, but we have games under Stanley and Mac now and Nick is back. So structure will still be maintained.

I saw on the scoreboard today, our 5 leading goalkickers and Dal Santo was 5th with 12. So Kosi has kicked less than 12 goals this year for a team that is in the Top 4 and plays as a key forward. I wonder whether Podsiadly would be playing in Geelong's first 22 if he kicked less than 12 goals in 15 games as a Full Forward.

It's been a tale of woe ever since he split the webbing in his hand approximately R16 last year

i want to see how a stanley/riewoldt forward line goes. kosi either rucks or is out.

if we need someone who can contest in a pack and bring it to ground for the little blokes, the other ruckman can do that.

I've had enough now as well but he won't be dropped, structurally important to Ross. See where he's coming from- Ross the boss is very conservative

I think he kicked his 12th today and he has played 11 games this season. Still poor though.

McEvoy effective up forward. :roll: :roll: :roll: :? :? :?
He can't kick for goal.
If Luke Ball can't kick over a jam tin then McEvoy is a jam tin kicking for goal.

If you want hard facts, Kosi hasn't played anywhere near his best since the middle of last season, and has gone downhill since then. McEvoy is ahead of him as is Patto at the moment. I think he will struggle to hold his place after yesterday.

Like the rest of us, I've had enough of Kosi's non efforts. His body language is terrible and when he goes near it he offers no presence. Maybe 3 weeks at Sandy can fix that. 12 goals from 12 matches is terrible output from a full forward. Even Pattison looks more dangerous than Kosi when he gets it kicked to him. There seems to be something wrong with Kosi. Don't know what but there is something physically wrong. His coordination seems to be shot.


Another opportunity awaits!
