Congratulations to Cristiano Paduano who played his 50th game for the Kalamunda Cougars against the Jandakot Jets in round 18 2025 at Atwell Reserve in Jandakot.
Christiano is a silky smooth operator in the middle who is immensely talented. He is highly skilled using both feet, making him a nightmare matchup for any opposition player.
He is tough in and under at the contest and also a damaging ball user on the outside. He was a premiership player for the Colts in 2022 and a well deserved winner of the club’s rising star award. Well done Chico, the poise and footy smarts you show are a class above and head into a massive finals series!
Congratulations also to Michael Kosovich who played his 150th game for the Kalamunda Cougars against the Jandakot Jets in round 18 at Atwell Reserve.
Michael is predominantly a lockdown defender who is incredibly difficult to play on, who has forwards feeling like they are playing with their hands tied behind their back. A no nonsense player who bodylines the football and willing to do the tough jobs without hesitation.
This season he has taken on a new role in the forward line for the reserves, showing his versatility. Bringing that hard nosed defensive pressure up forward resulting in more goal opportunities for his team. He has kicked a few goals this year but it’s more his willingness to do whatever is best for the team.
From the outside looking in, you never seems fazed always cool, calm and collected under pressure and the boys have a lot of respect for you and the way you go about it. Well done Kozzo, do the lads in black and white proud and have a cracking finals series!
Congratulations to Cooper Boyd who played his 100th game for the Kalamunda Cougars against the Jandakot Jets in round 18. at Atwell Reserve.
Cooper is an energetic key position forward who works defenders into the ground with his high work rate. He shows great presence and has a captivating demeanor which is infectious to the group. He can take critical contested marks and kick clutch goals.
He was a premiership player in his first year with the Colts in 2020. Over the years he has worked his way up the grades and made his league debut last season, playing in 16 matches including 2 finals. He is currently playing in a stacked reserves team this season and hasn’t put a foot wrong. Cooper has been dominating up forward having kicked at least 1 goal in every game this year bar one. He combined with his brother to kick 8 in a game against Joondalup earlier this 2025 season. Well done Coops, you always have a crack and give it your best shot. Keep putting together an impressive season this year and I wish you all the best for the finals!
Congratulations also to Luke Fabriziani who played his 50th game for the Kalamunda Cougars against the Jandakot Jets at Atwell Reserve in round 18.
Luke is a crafty half forward flanker who brings great pressure and sets up goals regularly as well as kicking some of his own. He is having his most consistent season this year with a career high five goals in round 7 against Ballajura. he has earned the honour and responsibility as the colts fines master and brings great energy and team comradery to the squad.
Well done Fab, love your work mate. The colts team has been building something special this year and you are a big part of it. A big few weeks coming up, go well in those finals !
