If memory serves, isn't Clayton on the lower end for minutes played? Maybe that's changed since earlier in the season though.

Still being managed though T.O.G. And you can tell when it's happening, as it coincides with our flat-spots in the centre.

Another 8 votes from the coaches and hes now sitting 6th on the leaderboard.

Cant wait to see how he goes on Brownlow night.

 On the couch showed a graph with Danger and Martin on 27 with Clarry third on 18.

Will be top 5 of he plays well in last 4 games. 

Needs to work on using his kicking oppressed to turning backwards looking for a handball every time.

So if Martin gets suspended then Oliver may have it in the bag

Yup. He only needs to get a fine to cop auto week.

You know what's funny about this? The one time he didn't do that on the weekend, he got run down in the last quarter..#notfair

Ha ha yeah. Just needs to be careful that he doesn't become so predictable to opponents plus he has a good burst and is a good kick.

Yeah thats right and Clarence just happens to be 67/1 atm.

 

i reckon Clarry might be leading the BL by round 8. 

cant get over how good this kid is. how did he build up such a tank in one pre-season where he apparently turned up in not great shape?

Clarry might poll a lot better than the media think, kids ultra consistent

And as a team we haven't really suffered any blowouts. 

46 contested possessions in the past fortnight. Against two big-bodied mid-fields. Insane.

Can someone with Twitter ask Champion Data what the two-week and three-week records are? (This question was asked re. tackles earlier in the year and quickly answered).

I personally think Zach Merrett will be right up the pointy end as well.

One very determined dude we have there.  Willed himself to do it.  Well done Clarrie.


His drink driving was probably the best thing that happened in a football sense as he got the kick up the bum he needed, and worked hard to repay the clubs faith will be scary to see what he can do in 3 years, will be dusty and danger levels imo

We should lend him the club Corolla with some bourbon & colas in the glove-box. Imagine how good he would be with another kick-up-the-bum? Add a few more indiscretions and he'll eclipse Dusty in no time.

And then again he might not. 

Not sure if the umpires are big on the quick handball clearance.

I think Oliver will poll very well. I think he could even be a danger to Martin.

He polled 2 votes in his first AFL game...I think they see him and he gets votes.

Clarry is just taking the pizz with those numbers

by the way how did he not make the team of the week, do they only put players in from a winning side, had a much better game than coniglio who made the bench

What a great stat - I just text it in to SEN to try and get some media love for him - not that I listen to the show... maybe someone listening can let me know if its repeated on air.

 

Beware - if Clarrie was getting too close to the bookies' favorite in the next few weeks*, the MRP would be instructed (by the Integrity Department no less) to find some tiny indiscretion (maybe a high tackle they could deem deliberate and dangerous) to ensure that the chosen one wins.   The media and the gaming / gambling industry call the shots at AFL HQ.

* and I do not believe the BS that they always spin about all votes being locked away at Chubb or Mayne etc.  They know. Maybe Gil gets the duplicates. 

If Oliver won the Brownlow, I don't think I'd be able to stand the masses' cries of "Stager! Diver!" Gah, I'm angry just thinking about it. But it probably won't happen, this year at least. Will be nice to watch the count with Dees players wracking up some good numbers for once though.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
