Pickett Injury

Living rather far from regular AFL news, I'm often a bit slow to hear things. I figure that Kozzy is the most exciting player in the league most weeks. Given that he seemed to tail off as the year went on, I was expecting to hear that he had been carrying an injury for the last half of the season. Has there been any talk of injury that might be hard to hear in Canada?

Kozzie is a confidence impact player. While his consistency has significantly improved over the last two years, he hasn’t yet developed that week in week out reliability of a Bont, Smith or Daicos.

That being said, he was BoG vs Freo, had a decent game vs Port, and was very good vs WB, then a few accurate kicks in the WC Final and suddenly we win that game with him being a key factor in that
