Melbourne have emphatically put to bed “crazy” speculation linking livewire forward Kysaiah Pickett with an AFL trade move to Port Adelaide.
Former Power star Tom Rockliff fanned the flames, declaring his former club in the mix to land Pickett during the trade period. But the Demons are adamant Pickett, who has played 62 games for the club and starred in last year’s premiership, is not going anywhere. “Any talk about Kozzy leaving is absolutely ludicrous,” Melbourne list manager Tim Lamb told reporters.“All Kozzy talks about is how much he loves this footy club, so we’re a bit baffled about all that stuff.
“ Chris Davies answered it really well last week that it’s never even been in consideration. It’s just crazy talk.”But quizzed by reporters when the annual trade period kicked off on Monday, Davies did not completely rule out making the call.“But fair to say, if Melbourne don’t want to him to go, he’s contracted, he’s going to stay there.”
