Melbourne Demons as a Potential Destination for Midfielder
Following a surprising decision by Carlton to move on from midfielder Matthew Kennedy, the 27-year-old is now exploring new opportunities, and the Melbourne Demons could be a fitting destination. After an impressive 2024 season where Kennedy played every match, his departure from the Blues marks the end of a notable seven-year stint in navy blue, leaving fans and analysts alike pondering his next move.
Kennedy’s journey in the AFL took off after he was selected with pick 13 in the 2015 National Draft, with his breakout season occurring in 2022 when he averaged nearly 25 disposals across 17 games. While he once played a vital role behind Carlton’s midfield stars like Patrick Cripps and Sam Walsh, recent seasons have seen him pushed down the pecking order due to the rise of Adam Cerra and George Hewett. Nevertheless, his versatility and depth as a midfielder could be immensely valuable to any team in need of an experienced hand.
The Melbourne Demons, fresh off a competitive season, might find Kennedy to be an ideal addition to their squad. With the team currently focusing on bolstering their midfield depth, Kennedy could slot in nicely alongside established stars like Clayton Oliver and Christian Petracca. The Demons are known for their aggressive playstyle and strong midfield presence, and Kennedy’s ability to contribute both as an inside bull and with forward craft would complement their dynamic approach.
Moreover, Kennedy’s experience in high-pressure situations would serve the Demons well as they aim to build on their recent successes. By bringing him into the fold, Melbourne would not only enhance their midfield stability but also add depth that could be crucial for navigating the rigors of a long AFL season. As Kennedy weighs his options, the prospect of joining the Demons offers a promising path forward, where he can continue to grow and make an impact on the field.
