The only thing I do find a bit strange that if Oliver had turned up underdone, he would have immiediarely been put in rehab/other group, this was not the case, and when he returned from the couple of sessions off, again this was not the case.

From Club Website   Oliver, who averaged 19.2 disposals per game in his first season, has had a slow start to this pre-season and has been training with the rehab group as he looks to return his fitness levels to an acceptable standard.

So the above is open to interpretation, he has had a slow start because he was crook or he has had a slow start because he came back unfit

Jack Trengove has had a slow start to the pre season and has spent 3 or 4 weeks in the rehab group because they have been building the load to his foot gradually or he came back unfit

Cam Pedersen has had a slow start to the pre season because he has had a couple of ops and  he has spent last 3 weeks in rehab or came back unfit

Sorry to point out a slight contradiction there Saty. Seems there is conjecture about his fitness, work rate in the off season and perhaps attitude. That coupled with his minor DD infraction suggests he needs a little re-programming. Nothing drastic.

I'm sure the club is on to it. They have learned lessons in the past about players who think they can perhaps cut corners and how to manage them...

If the boys are training Wednesday or Thursday, I am free and will attend and give my customary elloquent and right on the money appraisal of form and eclectic random thoughts on players for all you wonderful folk on Demonland! 

I think I can already say that Clarry Choo Choo will be "Training the House down"!

;)

Not sure if it was deliberate, but it made me laugh.

The conjecture about his attitude is from a minority on here, which they are entitled to have if they want to, I don't, but then again I have spoken to him face to face 3 times and attended most training sessions

It's mainly for the media, I attend all the time.

During the season itself they sometimes move to a school ground away from scouts

  • 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.
