    When is the AA team actually announced?

    And you're right, if Oliver doesnt make it there will be riots.   Sadly I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't make it as its the same idiot selectors who failed to even put him in the squad of 40 last season.

    …be a bit miffed for a moment but then remind myself that I get to watch him play next week so it doesn't matter.

    Roll my eyes as media favorites who had inferior seasons are selected ahead of him.

    Then return to my daily hunt to find Matthew Nicholls and end his existence.

    Still flies under the radar for opposition supporters    They all know big Max   but no idea of Clayton Oliver.

    Will be  No 1 in the league next year    Go Dees !!

    .......................Not give a damn.

    I don't need a board of selectors to tell me if he is in the best 22 players' in the league or not.

    I know he is, and he plays for us...................that's all i need to know.

    .... remind myself that the AA selectors will, whenever there is a toss-up between several players for the same position, reward the "big" club with selection.

    Oliver is so far ahead of the competition it doesnt matter.

    Thread topic, sounds a bit presumptuous, conspiratorial and cynical... he will be in.

    my essendon 'mate' hates him. reckons he's super over-rated and just racks up the possies with rubbish handballs. says that his kicking leaves a lot to be desired. i just laugh. i've about given up sending him highlights packages of him. just keep asking him how parish is going. LOL.

    While I get this line of thinking, it's not about you or me. The bloke should get the credit he deserves, and he deserves an All Australian jumper to tell his grandkids about. The first of many I'm sure, and will sit nicely besides a few B&Fs, a couple of premierships and a Brownlow.

    You don't think you might be just a little biased?

    Announced tonight. Live coverage on the AFL website from 2030

    Should have made it last year as well. He would be stiff to get overlooked considering he is a young player who has backed up consecutive years of AA level football. Simply has to get a gig.

  • Quote

    Both Clarry and Maximus absolutely have to make it.

  • Quote

    Many football experts have him on the pine with 'more deserving' mids starting.  Fair enough.

    But if you were picking a side to play for your life, you would have him starting on the wing instead of Gaff/McCrae, because he matches them outside, AND trumps them inside AND going forward too.

     

    These footy experts can't think beyond their nose.

    Won’t make it. The excuse will be that he’ll be in the next 10.

    I can see why Gawn might as he has been the stand out Ruckman this year but why Clarry?

    yes he has had a good year for us but in the position he plays there are a large number of very good players.

    It is like the Mid fielders award there are some very good players scoring votes every week.

    Pretty sure the whole squad of 40 would be there, even the interstaters.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
