No issues with Clarry, we would be in big  trouble without him.

from the highlights it looked like he might have gained some speed over preseason?  he has always had a burst but it looks more pronounced now and lasts longer.

Just watched the highlights of his game on the club website. 

The boy is quick. It was very noticeable.   Hes so bloody exciting.

As I have said before, he plays a different game.

Multiple efforts, flat out attack on the ball, repeated exhibition of the quickest hands ever seen, perpetual motion.

He might just be too good for his team mates. In time, they will learn to understand his plays better and will anticipate his delivery.

Go dees

Great that he caught the eye of the coaches, scoring 4 votes:

10 Patrick Dangerfield (GEEL)
8 Tim Kelly (GEEL)
4 Clayton Oliver (MELB)
3 Jake Kolodjashnij (GEEL)
2 Luke Dahlhaus (GEEL)
2 Tom Stewart (GEEL)
1 Mitch Duncan (GEEL)

From the other votes I'm guessing Goodwin: 3 and Scott: 1.  The other 3 votes went to Kolodjashni who didn't stand out to me on the telecast so I reckon they were from Scott for doing the job assigned to him.

 

 

Oliver appears to have a sense of coordination and balance above and beyond that of most football players, and certainly far better than members of the general public. I’ve noticed time and again even when nearly upended, Oliver’s extraordinary sense of balance enables him to know exactly where he is in relation to the often chaotic environment in which he is placed. An extraordinary talent, a talent worth $$$$$ in a few years time!

Cut that [censored] out right now Clayton. 

Doin a dermie.  check the hair.


Oliver is a potentially great kick. I say 'potentially' because we never really see him kick effectively - he just long bombs. Its pretty pointless, not to mention lazy. Oliver should be held to higher standards than others. He needs to find the balance between when to handball, and when to hold onto the footy, find space and execute effectively.

Keanu Reeves and Gordon Sumner. 

Why do you feel a need to respond like that? I asked a genuine question because I am not familiar with those nicknames.

Neo is a character played by Keanu Reeves in a movie called the Matrix and Stinga was the nickname for 90s MFC midfielder Stephen Tingay. Why l felt the need to respond like I did initially? I've done some self-reflection and I'm genuinely not sure.

 

Thanks for explaining, Skuit. It's somewhat difficult for a French resident to understand all that goes on inside the club and in this forum. Lots of things go over my head.

The whole team kept bombing it in on Saturday night, not just Oliver. We were nowhere near careful enough going inside 50.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
