Everyone bags David King during the season so I'm sure they'll do the same here......

Oliver is a level above them both.    Baffling how he only got 13 Brownlow vote, and he didnt poll too well the season before either.

This despite being at the coalface, getting 30 damaging touches a game and doing things few players have ever been able to do with his hands and creativity.

The umpires notice kicking more than handballing.  When Clarry starts to do more damage on the outside and kick more he will get more Brownlow votes.  So many demonlanders harp on about us having no outside pace, but it could be staring everyone in the face.  Clarry was one of the quickest at his draft combine, and if he can get more outside ball (maybe mix up inside and outside if Viney plays a full season), then he will be seen as a true superstar and win a Brownlow.  Think how Brayshaw, Martin etc kick a lot more and attract the umpires attention.

Oliver is a combination of the other two.

I've said for years now that he and Cripps will be the best two midfielders in the league.

Cripps has the physicality but Oliver has more skill.

Skill and innate footy nous. Nearly always makes the right decision, if he doesn’t hit the target outright, he puts the ball in the right area to his teammates outright advantage. Just a beautiful thing to watch.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
