    We have no media department.

    We do, but they are obviously thin. They managed to film a video piece featuring Checker drinking a sponsor’s product.... clearly  a matter of prioritisation. 
     

    maybe it is the way of the future though - the players have all made a fuss of Clarry on social so perhaps that’s a low rent way to celebrate the occasion nowadays.

    Interviewed by Ben Gibson as part of ‘Demons lock in first side of 2021’. As a normally young man of few words was articulate and quietly confident. A highlight reel is also there with Clarrie ‘kicking’ the ball a great deal. (vision of the complete champion!)

    Upwards and onwards Clayton! 
     

    May your next ?for the MFC really scale the heights and attain the ultimate fabled grail.

    • Grapeviney changed the title to Clayton Oliver’s 100th - no puff piece, no profile, no promo

    He played a little bit too cute today, needs to take the first option more often, use his good footskills rather than rely on the handball. Still nice to see he got the pill though

    Of more concern right now is the joint is empty 20 minutes from the bounce. Cannot for the life of me understand why we don’t have 40k+ here.  Embarrassing 

    Yes, it was a disappointing crowd.  I wanted to come. But after considering the 17,000 km distance, $8,000 airfare and two weeks’ quarantine, I decided to give it a miss. Slack, I know. Seriously, i just wish I had the chance to attend.

    35 disposals for the game. 

    10 kicks and 25 handballs. The part of his game I was hoping for an adjustment over the summer.

    The most unfairly disrespected superstar in the league. 

    We're not likely going to see a better first 100 games for a long time. 

    Well done Clarry - now sign that contract!

    Should have led the team out yesterday Didnt, Should have tossed the Coin yesterday Didnt, should have been hoisted on someones shoulders in acknowledgement of probably the best first 100 games ever. Wasn't, Massive question WHY NOT??

    What argument are you trying to win here?

    The club loves the bloke, he is plainly the future of the joint, and I expect they’re desperately trying to get him to commit to a long term deal.

    So what’s your point? They should should be being more naff, more cliched, less cool?

    Pretty sure all that happen when a player plays 200 games,  not 100.

    Really hope they can get a contract sorted during the season. Would be a massive set back if we lose our number 1 midfielder.

    He's a gun and as have everyone on here has done we have enjoyed every one of his 100 games.

    I don't need Robbo to tell me he's good. He can kneel down and slobber all over the Dusty Martin statue he's put up in his backyard.

    What did he have Oliver ranked at again?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
