    Scans have confirmed Brownlow Medal favourite Clayton Oliver has fractured his thumb - likely to miss one game. But he's adamant he'll push to play off the nine-day break

    Give him a rest this week and get him tight for the late part of the season and finals. 

    Bring in Dunstan to cover the best he can.

    Shouldn’t  Selwood be cited for this? It was reckless, dangerous and caused injury that could force Clarry out to recover. He should get a couple of weeks for what he did.

    If Mark Thompson was still coaching Geelong he’d be blaming Oliver’s thumb for trying to break Selwood’s foot.

    Hopefully it’s just the one week and we can adequately cover him for the Port game.

    A shame he has to break his 130 game streak due to a reasonably careless kick from Selwood.

    Someone commented that it was in play and not deliberate so there should be no penalty beyond the free kick. But the offence was kicking in DANGER.  Why does this escape further penalty when Chandlers did not?  In play dangerous tackle vs in play dangerous kick. The only difference is the focus on concussion. But I bet if Chandler had broken the blokes arm he would have still been rubbed out.

    I did exactly the same injury a zillion years ago and had surgery had it pinned and missed 2  weeks but I was, a sook and was nowhere near as tough as Clarry and so I reckon he will be a chance to play!!😊

    The little rat should with luck put his head down to pick up a spare free kick of his own

    When was the last time we played without Oliver?

    Round 18 2016 Vs Gold Coast. MCG. The early Sunday game.

    We won by 2 points with Tom Lynch failing to make the distance after the siren to snatch the win. Vanders had a big 3rd with 3 goals.

    He’s been so durable. Goodwin won’t know what to do with himself without Oliver in his lineup.

    I reckon he'll play.  If he's had surgery today he'll be right with a hand guard. Some of the injuries this guy has played with are beyond belief.  And nobody could tell.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
