    • Demonland changed the title to Geelong Sets Sights on Oliver

    Agree PF! Our midfield gets really shallow of elite talent if we let Clarry go in addition to the retirement of Brayshaw 

    Geelong will argue he is only worth a second round pick to due to the off field issues. 

    Would be staring at a full scale rebuild if we lost Petty and Oliver at the end of this year. We need to get aggressive at the trade table ourselves I feel.

    Also know as clubs put 100 names on a whiteboard to discuss/monitor and Oliver is one of the 100. 

    I noticed the Jay Z had a new show start last night and broke the "story" on the show. I suppose they needed something to talk about and get people to tune in next week.

    Said in the other thread that got shut down. Highly doubtful he goes. The only way he does, is if he is pushed out by Melbourne. I cannot see him initiating the move himself. In either case, you can't seeing us getting more than a first round pick for him given the circumstances.

    Rather give him away to West Coast than see him in a Geelong jumper.

    A glaring issue in our list has been, for many years, quality ball users in our midfeild. That then amplifies our issue of having no elite power forward. 

    Love Clarry, he is a generational player. But if letting him go would fix the issues above then of course we should entertain it.

    He’s too young to go to Geeelong and still has six years left on his contract with us plus he is very close to Tracc and Max. Click bait, media are still grasping at straws  to get people to read their rubbish.

    I wonder why I hate Geelong so much. We would probably have sold him a few months ago but no one was interested. So Melbourne do the right thing and stick by him to see if he can turn it atound and thus far he has and now you have those sleazebags at Geelong putting their grubby paws into the pudding hoping for something cheap.

    Can't have a poor kicking midfield if you don't have any midfielders

    Viney, Sparrow, Tracca, Kozzie, Rivers, Salo, Windsor - and in the two's AMW, Brown 

    How many midfield options do we need exactly?

    Every other club in the league would want him. 
    I’m sure Bontempelli would be sought by everyone as well, but it ain’t going to happen.

    Best to stop reading when you see the authors name, and his employer.

    Correct - the desperation for relevance from some of these people is beyond ridiculous. Oliver is in the middle of a massive contract - no team can afford to give us what is required for us to give up Clarry.

    We could head this off by relocating our Training and Admin facilities to Moggs Creek.

    In seriousness I cannot see how Geelong would come up with the 2 x early first round picks to satisfy any trade and thats if Clarry wanted to leave Melbourne and go there. I think this sort of rubbish reporting will only intensify depending on how our season progresses.

    We don't want any of our players to get to the stage of wanting to leave Melbourne, and the best way to do that is to make sure the Club is the best place for them to be happy, and if not why not.

    'Out of favour' - spare me. Geelong are in the Vic media's favourite 3 teams alongside Collingwood and Carlton and they want all the good players to go to one of them. Morons.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
