Brett Anderson just tweeted me back an emphatic Oliver to go at 3/4 to Dee's. Looks like that ones a given. Question now turns to 7

    If we take Oliver I'll be a bit smug because as soon as I saw his highlights (I know it's hard to read a lot into them) I rated him highly.

    We all will.

    As if we were the only one who did.

    The difference is when I saw his highlights he wasn't rated a top pick.

    Is that a difference?

    I think most people thought the same.

    Still find all this last minute interest in Oliver really unusual. Have to wonder if this is some kind of plan from Essendon.

    Mark Neeld would want Parish over Ollie wouldn't he

    not sure if already mentioned, but oliver actually has a persistent/chronic groin issue and didn't train much his year, as in he just rocked up to games and played. (three of my mates who are getting drafted next year who play against and with him told me this).

    A bit risky imo

    He has been doing a pre season program given to him by the bushies and one on one work with a personal trainer aswell.

    His body is injury free.

    The suggestion that our interest in and decision to select a particular player in the National Draft being dictated by another club is absurd in the extreme.

    Let me ask you this, what plans have Melbourne made for other clubs to select which players?

    Olisik just had one of the all time great orgasms. Well done son.

    Oh, and welcome Clayton. I reckon you'll be a gem!

    alright lets hope this pick works out. SEN said his mum is in tears. I hope thats because her son got drafted and not because melbourne got him.

    Looking forward to seeing what this kid can do.

    How long until there is a thread saying we should have drafted Darcy Parish? Too soon?

    I was thinking of starting tonight

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
