Oliver - nothing but accumulation

Harsh.

In the first half he was the number one reason we dominated. Was a class above all our other midfielders and took it right up to the Fremantle midfield almost on his own.

Second half he was tagged relentlessly by Aish and couldn't break the tag. In part because Petracca wasn't there to help out.

Trac - clearly not 100% (he looked slow, almost disinterested in some contests). Definitely not 100%

Christian was really sick yesterday. Couldn’t  even do a very simple favour asked by his management team.  Can’t believe he played today.

And that's how he looked. Played deep forward for most of the last quarter.

Disagree. He pushed the game but was unlucky to find opposition players when he cleared the ball. Oliver was becoming a problem for Freo but for some reason we benched him, and for 10 minutes. By then Freo had halted momentum. It was one of the most baffling coaching decision I have ever seen. I said to my old man “Oliver is pushing the play if we drag him Freo will take control”.

Wow wee. There are dozens of accumulators in the comp on 800K, but rest assured Clayton isn't one of them. I can't remember one cheap possession yesterday.

Agree ,Clayton Oliver earnt every possesion yesterday. If you want to see a freewheeling accumulator that gets cheap possesions, look no further than the bloke at Essendon who we didnt take. Thank God Clarry is not like him !

Interesting that he was sick the day before.

Maybe he woke up yesterday morning feeling better, put his hand up to play, but realised mid-game he didn't have the energy?

If it's just how he's feeling, I imagine it would have been hard for Goodwin to overrule him if he's declaring himself over his sickness.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
