Step 1: Go to "AFL Supercoach" Facebook page.

Step 2: Click on comments responding to the latest Clayton Oliver piece.

Step 3: Read responses to these comments.

Step 4: Laugh.

Gosh some people are pathetic.

"if he gets drafted to bombers i am gonna cry"

Clayton Oliver replies with: "Why?"

"Cause essendon will actually draft someone gun cause your a jet"

"Soz for the confusion, looking forward to having you on my supercoach"

Yeah, right.

 

What gives me the [censored] is our club hasn't leaked one little bit of info.

I want the old Melbourne back where Motor Mouth Connolly would open up with, tonight we will pick Jordon Gysberts, I assure you he will be better than our priority pick and pick one in a couple of years.

I want those leaks NOT!

I would suggest that in fact something HAS been leaked.

In the last few days it's suddenly been all aboard the Oliver train

i can't recall if it's already been suggested, but has anyone seen/read oliver & olisik at the same point in time?... last night's interactive social media session that oliver had on FB just had me asking a few questions..... if so, hi olisik! if we do end up drafting you tonight, it's gonna be pretty sweet having your insight into the dees for the next few years!

If Olisik is Oliver then I no longer want him.

When St Kilda overlooked Petracca and GWS took Plowman instead of Toumpas there was strong word in the last 48 hours before the draft that a change in thinking had occurred. This year it feels different. Not one journalist has listed Oliver as our first pick and done so with any authority. I wouldn't be surprised if they were using the meeting mentioned in the article above as the basis for their selection of Oliver. I still think we'll pick Parish.

 

I don't get it

Im pretty sure he ment the back peddling some of those flogs do.. alot of fat jokes and when Oliver replies to them (in a lighthearted way) they back peddle pretty bad to the point where you could see them go red in the face.

Exactly.


Good article on Oliver here.

States how we met him at his home after the draft camp and that we were a lot nicer club to talk to than Essendon who ripped into him.

What a bunch of flogs!

Melbourne considers Clayton Oliver with first pick: Plays like Ollie Wines

Inetersting - if true - that according to the article most clubs rate him no 3

The player we just 'had to pick' has been Parish and when there has been the player 'we had to pick' we have picked Watts, Morton, Scully, and Toumpas...

I have developed this affliction to ask 'who is the better player taken at 15 or 20.

Maybe Clayton Oliver is that better player usually taken later?

i think we are all haunted by the ollie wines catastrophe

i won't be surprised if we go clayton

if so i'd love to know (after) when the decision was basically made

correct, edited

Why would Parish slag off Essendon and say Melbourne were really nice?

Maybe we told him we are going to take him?

All I was saying is that Quayle, Twoney and Anderson all sound like they're making educated guesses.

This is what Landsberger said on the morning of the 2012 draft:

After SuperFooty revealed this week GWS would pass on SA gun Jimmy Toumpas with its first three picks, the Dogs suddenly had the option of taking Bendigo Pioneers captain Ollie Wines. But it seems Wines, touted as possibly the second-best player in the draft pool, could slip as low as pick seven - and even then he creates a headache for Port Adelaide, which is also keen on home-grown talent Sam Mayes.

And Jay Clark said this last year:

ST KILDA will crown Paddy McCartin the No.1 draft pick, believing the full-forward is the man to lead its list rebuild.

The Herald Sun understands the Saints have settled on the 194cm goalkicker, who has been likened to Hawthorn spearhead Jarryd Roughead.

See how the language is far more definitive. That's what I mean by making their picks with 'authority'. They happily suggested they had the inside word and they did. Not so this year.


It could have gotten out of the Dons bag with a guess that we'll take Oliver... Dons then take X and Y leaving us with the Wiedeman.

Melbourne considers Clayton Oliver with first pick: Plays like Ollie Wines

Oliver won me with this comment: “I do pride myself on being competitive. I always have ever since I was little. I just see the ball and want to get the ball. I always want to win. I never want to lose,” Oliver told Fox Footy...“I think they (Melbourne) like my inside work, my clean hands, work at the stoppages and competitiveness.”

I like the maturity in that...proud of his strengths and nothing egotistical about it!

The words underlined would be music to Jesse's ears...he made similar competitive comments after the RS award.

With that attitude Oliver will fit in nicely with the commitment our your brigade have made to winning.

For too long it was ok for our players to accept losing/floggings.

Can't help but think there is a new breed in Demon town!

I would suggest that in fact something HAS been leaked.

Tend to agree C&B if it does go Oliver and Weideman you'd have to suggest that there was a leak somewhere, or they've all guessed correctly which is very unlikely. It would be funny now if they were all completely wrong. Would just go to show once and for all that they are all just guessing.

I just see the ball and want to get the ball.

Interpretation is funny isn't it? How often has the above been used as an insult against a player...

It could have gotten out of the Dons bag with a guess that we'll take Oliver... Dons then take X and Y leaving us with the Wiedeman.

Feels to me that its our choice Parish/Oliver and the bombers will deffo take the other. Then Francis is the clear best of the remainders, so the top 5 is pretty locked in.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
