    My favourite player already, alongside Tyson. But there a few guys that could join that list. Brayshaw, Hogan, Petracca. Clarry has the highest ceiling out of our mids though and I'd argue out of our players.

    big call ! higher ceiling than Hogan and Petracca ?I hope the two I've mentioned become superstars and Clarry goes even past them.

    Choo Choo looks the goods, but he needs to trust his ability to kick and not always handball.

    He seems to get clear then handball to someone else when I think a kick would be better.

    Petracca has a higher ceiling but Oliver is more consistently good.

    They are attacking handballs

    I think petracca  should always play half forward, Oliver is a pure midfielder

    even better, i think we are developing a lot of young players who can play well in many positions

    Clarry doesn't remind me of anyone, which is a good thing, as he will create his own legacy.

    He has a fair bit of Cripps about him. More skilful though.

    He's a hugely exciting prospect. Once he develops a tank, look out.

    Prior to Goodwin, the last Ginger coach we had was Norm Smith.

    It's a bit like saying though who's the better player out of Franklin or Mitchell. Very hard to say. Both superstars.

    Ditto the Saints and McCartin.

    McCartin was taken in the Petracca/Brayshaw draft, I believe...

    A blond -- that could explain quite a lot ?

    Unfortunate placement, Bingers! Placed straight after a comment about Simon Goodwin could lead someone to believe that you see Michael Voss (as coach) in Simon Goodwin rather than Michael Voss (as player) in Oliver. At least, I hope you were talking about Michael Voss the player...

    For the purposes of certainty (putting on my lawyer hat), Oliver (the player) reminds me of Voss (the player).

    I loved the old Choo Choo bars !!!! They were great ! As were liquorice blocks ( 4 for a penny), teeth, liquorice all sorts, cobbers, not to mention fags. Which dummy thought naming them " fads " was a good idea ??? Probably the same idiot that changed the names Dick to Rick and Fanny to Franny in the Magic Faraway stories. Oops I seem to have strayed from the topic somewhat. 

    I believe young Clayton will turn out to be quite a decent player.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
