Clarry Undergoes Surgery on Thumb

Melbourne superstar Clayton Oliver has undergone surgery on his thumb to fix a niggling problem in his right hand.

The Demons on Wednesday confirmed Oliver, 25, had gone under the knife to get on top of a minor issue which had been bothering him in recent weeks. 

The injury is expected to fully heal over the next few weeks, allowing Oliver to return to full training when his teammates come back from their Christmas break next month.

    From my training report on December 5;

    Clarry also left the drills at one stage and was having some discomfort around the wrist and thumb area (hope that's not from the break last year).

    It clearly hasn't settled, so great to see them being proactive with plenty of time for him to recover.

    I wonder how long it will take him to say " WTF was I thinking!" When he takes a good hard look at his current hairdo.

    And that’s the hair all his maiden brownlow memorabilia will show too. Do you hold out and wait to buy the stuff for his second Charlie instead?

    (As an aside, I love his hair. He deserves to be identifiable. If you were showing the game to anyone just getting into afl, being able to pick clarry out helps)

    You mean, the scot-free, faking bag of detritus who heads the AFL Free Kick tally?

    He's done a disservice to AFL because now we have the next wave of cheats ready to follow his lead like his illegitimate son at Collingwood

    It may rouse the umpires into acknowledging all of the  free kicks he should mandatorily receive each game in the midst of violent intent and maiming -  yet they pretend (so far) to consider nothing untoward occurred. If he has that gentle touch as a personal image accompanying his ponytail, it may assist in this shirked responsibility of the snot goblins.

    It may be wise for Gawn to consider a ponytail, as welI? If Gawny cannot grow one, a wig might suffice. I'd hate to be the moron who sarcastically comments on a wig atop of Max's head - the whole team would crash down on him in an instant.

    To drag this thread back to Clarry: it makes you marvel at the level that he was playing at in circumstances where he had difficulties with his handballing  and dominant hand!

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
