have been told trade for our second round pick is basically locked in. Will be done pretty quickly.

Thats fantastic if true.

We have cleaned up with those 2nd rounders around the pick 30 mark -    Hibbo, Melk,  Fritsch and now maybe KK.

    Seems alot to pay for a bloke with concussion issues that are now miraculously fixed but yet GC still dont seem to want to fight to keep him and has been inconsistent.

    My biggest concern however is how do l pronounce / yell his name on match day! Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue

    You could probably do something really creative and unique by dubbing him “Kolla” or just “Kade”.

    way overs if true. When was the last time a player at  a bottom club was told to look elsewhere and you traded a top 36 pick for him.

    Makes AVB definitely worth a second rounder

    O'Rourke was a pick 2 that was traded (with pick 43) after two years to Hawthorn for picks 19 and 40.

    KK was a pick 5 five years ago who achieved far more in his first year than O'Rourke did in his two years at GWS.

    Seems like a good, fair trade to me.

    KK also fits our list profile perfectly.

    ‘A top 36 pick’??

    Yeah, the best players are always there...

    Is there really any gaurantee that they're at any particular number though ;)

    Dees just do the deal that gets them the outcome they want.  If they pay slightly overs it’s not the end of the world. 

    The recent record shows they know exactly what they are doing.

    The recent record of delistings also shows me they haven't nailed enough late picks.

    King, Flipper, DJ, McKenna + Balic (both free to good home trades we took a punt on instead of a late pick), Hulett last year. I know the strike rate isn't great at these spots, but fighting for every little bit at the back end helps the recruiters. 

    We've certainly done well with recent trades, but there's no reason not to even better! KK isn't easy to get a value on, our 2nd round pick probably not a terrible deal but the Suns will probably have a lot of late picks they won't even use, I'd want to get some late picks or upgrades coming back. And of course the reality is any KK even done separately will be linked with a potential May deal so I'm not sure I particularly believe the optimism that it will be done quickly.

    You neglected to mention T Mac, O Mac, Hannan, ANB, Fritsch, Spargo, Hunt, Harmes and VandenBerg.

    I think our later selections have been above average.

    Yeah, the club really suffered by having picks so late that we had to settle for Fritsch and Spargo as our first couple of selections. Disasterous.

    T Mac was a football eternity ago. Oscar might not be any good, there's a big thread here about finding a replacement. Fritsch and Spargo were early/mid 2nd rounders. Hannan was our first pick in the draft that year, you'd hope someone you like gets through to pick 46. Certainly some good later picks in the Jason Taylor era - it's a big part of why we all rave about him -  but the better the pick the better the odds of finding more talent.

    I'm not suggesting we take the lead of some of the clubs who think trade week is a chance for club staff to make a name for themselves with empty tough talk, but we aren't the battlers any more desperate to do deals to get talent. Could be the year for us to dig our heels in over some deals.

    I understand what you are saying but Spargo was pick 29 and Fritsch 31. There were 47 picks after Fritsch (Jarrod Garlett - Carlton was pick 78) so neither were late picks

    According to Craig Cameron on Trade Radio, Gold Coast didn't speak to the Dees at all today.

    Probably little more to say at this stage, we both know where things sit and we need to work on other avenues before giving Gold Coast our attention.

    surely at Marvel stadium the means of communication would be suitably stellar

    Holographic at least

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
