Traded Jacob Koschitzke [Traded to Richmond for #49]

[Blackhawk42]

Some on our board believe he's a guarantee to be delisted.

Others think he has to re-signed due to his flexibility and athletic traits.

Out of contract at the end of this season.

52 career goals from 45 games since debuting in 2021.
Looked solid as the back up ruck last week and has held his spot for this weekend.

What's the consensus from opposition supporters?
Delisted?
Trade value?
DFA signing?
Staying at Hawthorn?

Well, it's something!

For what its worth, personally I can't see him not being on an AFL list next season.

How does he go in the ruck?

Not well last season. Has improved a bit at VFL level then performed quite strongly last week at senior level.

Needs to prove it wasn't a one-off.

Did clarko rate him at all in his time there?

Stay at hawthorn. Wouldn't think a player at pick 80 would be any more talented in the draft

 

[The 747]

He's a might make it type but imagine the Hawks would be better off keeping him. If he can come good and play consistent footy then they have another piece of the puzzle.

How does he go in the ruck?

Thought he played really well as the 2nd ruck against your mob.

Not the type to win a bunch of hit outs but be a pest in the ruck with his leap, while also offering physicality when it hits the deck.

I think he could end up projecting as a poor man's Leigh Brown type. 10-15 hit outs a game, a few big tackles, stretch the defence without being immobile. If he can bob up for 15-20 goals a season you'd be pretty happy with that.

Ruck forward is a pretty difficult position to do well, a few hit outs and a goal a game would do nicely.

 

[Jeremias]

I am a bit surprised he hasn't played more this season. Would be very happy for Carlton to have a look at him, if he was to come cheap.

Kosi strengths are his athleticism for being such a big lump and his intensity. Puts his body on the line and isn't afraid to throw his weight around.

His deficiencies are his skills and footy IQ are not AFL standard. Despite many years in the system he has very little understanding of leading patterns and often gets in the way of his more talented partner in Mitch Lewis when played as a second KPF. He does ok as the first KPF because he gets to be the spearhead but NFI when he isn't.

3rd tall/ruck let's him occupy space without getting in the way of others. Allows him to crash and bash in the middle.

If he can fix his concrete hands and learn to become a one grab player he could have a long footy career.

Sounds like a young Liam Jones.

How’s he done down back?

Terribly at VFL level.

The swing forward arguably saved him from being delisted a few years back.

The swing to the ruck might save him from being delisted this year. It's a big maybe though he will need a big month.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Delist.

Expect him to be at North next year.

I wonder if the Saints would look at him as a key defender? He couldnt be any worse than Dougal Howard

Can established players be on less than 1st year draftees

Has Kosi been tried as a KPD? Good size for the bigger key forwards.

Was drafted as one. After two years developing (admittedly one being covid affected 2020), they thought he stood no chance of making it.

Swung him forward in the 2021 pre-season and he came out and kicked 27 goals, won Brownlow votes and was given the famous number 23 off the back of it.

 

[Heaps of fun]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Bradkli]

If he performs like he did last week against the pies in the final 3 rounds, he will get one more year. Our key position depth is terrible.

Either Kozi or Jeka get delisted.

It’s looking like Jeka. 7 games in 3 seasons, whilst consistently being injured..not good enough

 

[fargothegreat]

Few rumours we had interest last year. Not sure where that is at now.
