With our unwillingness to play Brayshaw in the middle, no

    His brilliance and determination have masked how poor our midfield is performing this year. It feels like an eternity since we won the clearances and could stop opposition midfields charging through the corridor. Would be in a world of pain without Clarry doing his bit.

    Best player in the competition. Superstar.

    Still hasn’t learned how to kick, but at least he hasn’t mastered kicking to the opposition like Petracca

    Petracca tries to do it all him self, Clarry actually does it

    He genuinely looks like a man playing against boys with how well he wins contests

    Can win genuine contests (i.e. not talking about the contested posession stats necessarily, but those genuine one on one, 50/50 contests where if you win it you either drive a meaningful F50 entry for us or stop one for the oppo). Sadly outside of him, Gawn, Brayshaw and May (and probably Petty) we have too many who just can't win or half those contests.

    No Doubt he is the most important player in our list. He's our barometer, when playing great you know we are a chance no matter the odds.

    I believe his contract situation is paramount to that of Jackson.

    Dare I say the order of priority as of today is:

    Oliver 

    Brayshaw

    Jackson

    A Million a year over 7 should do it!! I mean Viney got a very generous offer that I thought was far too generous... Clarry is a much better player and should be after top dollar. If we don't pay it all the other clubs will! Gladly!

    43 disposals at 81%. Really? He was creative with hands and his feet today and hit the scoreboard. Incredible post...

    Went at 81% today. 
    It’s a fallacy that he can’t kick. He disposes of the ball under more pressure than anyone else. 
    He is a freak. We are absolutely [censored] without him.

    One goal, plenty of nice short kicks, the number of times he’s run through the centre and hit a leading forward for the year is still under 5. 
     

    He might be the best player in the comp but there’s still a major limit to his game.

    Seriously what do you want 50 possessions at 100% and 5 goals??Give me a break!

    Absolute gun. End of.

    A few feral filth supporters sitting around us today thought otherwise and weren’t afraid to let the whole bay know it…….but deep down, like the supporters of every other club, I know how jealous they are he’s not on their side.

    Should have got 2 more (free) kicks too that the umps didn’t pay when he got tackled head on with his head over the ball. Collingwood also got a goal as a result of one of those not being paid

    That I can agree on. If there’s a player who deserves a HS back page about his poor treatment by the umpires it’s not the Collingwood kid

    He goes alright he’s not perfect but where screwed if we don’t have him. I think his kicking could become more damaging if only someone else was feeding the ball out to him. My favourite Demon of all time and getting harder and harder to think of a better Demon in my life. Really hope he signs a contract extension to be a Demon for life.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • 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.

      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.
