I have never been 100% convinced that Oliver has the team-first mentality to take us to a premiership. My mind has changed. To go all-in and sign so early in a season when we promise something but haven't delivered yet shows he not only wants us to get there but is willing to bet his career on it. Lovely.

    This is such good news!

    He's an odd cat, our Clayton, so it was very difficult to get a read on the whole situation.

    Go Dees!

    Whoever started that rumour about him going to Carltank needs to have a good hard look at themselves.

    Had heard it was a 2 year extension on decent coin to take him through to free agency and looks to be correct.

    Still bloody happy he’s signed on. He’s the best 100 gamer I’ve seen and best inside midfielder in red n blue in my years supporting the club.

    For the first time in 20 years we have actual leadership. 

    Gawn signs on, Lever, Viney. now the younger players are signing on early.

    This. Is. Good. News. Looking forward to collecting the details so I can jam it down every Carlton-Supporting-Mate that have already bought Carlton tops with #13 on the back

    just out of curiosity how many of those mates did u have?

    Massive.  Love him even more for sticking fat.  Now just get on the scoreboard clarry, slow down just a little mate (less is more sometimes) and you'll be a superstar.

    This is another sign of... I whisper it quietly...that the club has changed.  Our stars are not departing.  If we can lock away Petracca then.. well... sheesh.

    That picture of him in the opening post? Dude is seriously ripped.  He is a physical specimen of an athlete.  Sort of a chubby  doughboy draft night.  Not any more.

    Likewise this season things seem to be different, the boys playing for each other is fantastic to see. He has to become a leader now and help drive us to a flag

    Tracc on 360- wrapped about Oliver.

    Said difference between now and two years ago is we take feedback heaps better and are more mature, whereas two years ago, we may have said 'get stuffed' to feedback.

    Well...my nephew’s 15th Birthday party just came to life and he’s wondering why there’s only 13 candles on his cake.

    Fantastic news.

    Ripping news! 

    Gotta say I appreciate he's vibe on the field, like he's really he's own self. Mix between enjoying the hell out of himself, [censored] stirrer and super competitive. He pulls it off b/c he's so damn good!

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
