Thought this one was going to get done 'early'?

Quote

Melbourne has also progressed in talks to secure Gold Coast rebounding defender Kade Kolodjashnij in a deal involving a future third-round pick.

That sounds about right to me. Still think it waits until the May deal, both clubs will want to work the little trade around the big trade.

Gold Coast must have academy kids they want the picks for next year.  Good result for both parties.

We make off like bandits


I just hope that Hoges stays with the Dee's. We need him. He's had a tough time the last 2 years.  Thing is, sometimes you have to stop and think what a person

Future 3rd round pick? Sounds like an absolute steal to me.

Does this mean we can't trade our future first round pick??

Doubt it, as the AFL have come out and said they won't be strongly enforcing future trading rules for a year or two yet, so long as it gets the tick of approval by what's his name (Ken Wood), then anything goes.

suntan terry was saying the other day you have to use one first rounder across the course of five years - no idea when the afl made the change or announced it

I'd imagine that one of the picks we got today (62 or 65) will probably be used.

They have 5 picks under 29 (2,3,19,24 & 29) and no academy kids coming through, so I'd think they'd prefer to bank some points for next year.

That's a fair call. Given the events of today I think this will get done first thing Monday.

Agree.  It will send a signal to Freo that we are ‘out’ of the bs deal and that there is no trade for May.

Maybe once we recruit him we should call him Special K

Horse?

The way Mahoney talked about this trade, it seemed to certainly be linked to a hypothetical Hoan trade.  

Now that that has fallen through (and hopefully we won’t be returning their calls) I think this trade should go through fairly quickly.  

Both teams seems to be dealing on good terms.

Need to get it done. KK will be a good addition 

If you're sure that we're announcing the deal Monday, why post later that we 'need to get it done', as if it won't get done on Monday and there's a chance the deal may not go through at all?

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
