Demons eye off the Suns' Kade Kolodjashnij

Apparently we are targeting him. #5 pick from 2013 or 2014 I think? Silky outside mid who hasn’t quite got it together yet and could use a fresh start

Probably wouldn’t cost us a lot.

Definitely yes from me.

    Doesn’t sound like there’s much opposition from the suns end, his lack of matches mean his value is pretty low, looks like a good opportunity to me. Given our experience with concussion riddled players in recent years that might also help manage him (although it sounds like he’s past the worst of it). 

    Early 3rd rounder? Or perhaps a direct swap for a current fringe player?

    Can play...he was really good early in his career.

    Half back or wing with a bit of class.

    Forget about the Kelly's of this world, this is exactly the type of trading we need to do.

    He will cost more than a 3rd I suggest. Former 5 pick with 78 games to his name and slowed by injury. I wonder if Tyson could work? 

    Former 5 pick.....That Gold Coast don’t even want

    Would you have accepted a 3rd round pick for brayshaw at the end of last year? 

    Because that's effectively what you are suggesting... top 5 pick over 70 games experience with concussion issues

    Yes! Worth a second round pick (20 - 30) Was pick 5 and showed great early promise. 

    We have to plan for life after Nev and Hibbo. Both 29yo going into next season.

    Do you enjoy following me around GCD? And I’m not even going to get into comparing KK to AB. And I’m not suggesting anything you’ve alluded to.

    He is a genuine talent when up and running. Jason Taylor was a huge wrap for him in his junior days and wanted him at pick 9. But you knew straight away that he was set on getting picked up early.

    I like this interest from the club.

    I'd be happy with this. With Lewis in the twilight of his career he could slot in across half back perfectly for us. 

    If the Suns are happy for him to move on then I doubt they would want much. A three way deal with the Saints perhaps? 

    Saints get: Kent

    Dees get: Kolodjashnij

    Suns get: Third round pick. 

    I know the Saints don't have one of those picks at the moment but I'm sure they can get one.

    Our highest pick is 32, but with 8 or so players to replace would be surprised to see us use that on a trade, would take us out of the first two rounds of the draft altogether.

    Hopefully one of our 3rd round picks will get it done, they don't want to hang on to him regardless of where he was initially drafted.

    Dont mean to be following you around. It just seems to be you're name popping up with the outrageous trade suggestions haha

     Concerned about his concussion issues, but can play. Would be similar value to Kent I would have thought?

    Which suggestions are those? 

    KK who is out of contract and GC telling him to look elsewhere? 3rd round based on those facts is hardly outrageous at all.

    Yes, a few clubs have big holes in their draft options (e.g., Freo with 5 ... and then 77, Saints with 5 and then 57). Trading away your future draft picks is all well and good, but then you end up with no draft picks. Could be some horse-trading for picks.

     A gun in the making, his progress derailed by some concussions and the fact he plays for a horrible club.

    Once Brendan McCartney gets hold of him everyone will see why he was a pick 5.

    Love it, love it. 

    Bit of money ball about it and once again a strategic/targeted list maneuvour . 

    Ive been thinking that the likes of Shiel and Kelly are just too costly, in trade and it $. Pay too much for one player and it gets the rest of the players asking for more too.

    Haven't seen too much of Kade - but he's got toe.

    His brother Jake is a very good player.

    Much better player than Kent but will be interesting to see how he is valued.

    but with GC happy to let him go...who knows where the cards will fall.

    32 might just do it. Or straight swap for Tyson.

    I doubt they would accept a third rounder for him. That’s a pick in the 45-55 range. Can’t see that happening.

    I actually don't mind Koladjaksfndhdhdbsnij as a player. He looked good early on, bit has really disappeared with concussion issues.

    I'd be keen to give him a go. Would be happy with a 3rd round, but would give a second rounder for him if he changed his surname to Smith (just so we didn't have to spell his name on the forum)

    Like gus very talented but had a string of concussions. Huge potential value if we can get him right

    Think we are going to try and turn next years 1st round pick into a handful of later picks this draft.

    Bit hard to explain how we will fill all the vacancies otherwise.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
