Geelong Sets Sights on Oliver

Don't forget Clarry was told to shape up or ship out a couple of months ago.

That said, Geelong have nothing we would want. I'd be disgusted if he ended up there.

If Carlton were prepared to offer Charlie Curnow in exchange I'd entertain the conversation.

    This thread is a waste of time, 

    I see Clayton as too heavily invested in HIS club. And ours, 

    the management of him by the FD and his manager is another matter.

    a one club player, couple or more premiership s how many Bluey awards. 
     

    He will lose too much credibility after he retires if he shifts.  Does he want to be like GH.

    Unless we get a replacement who is as good a ball user as Clarry is an extractor, then that theory is kaput.

    I'd rather work on improving Clarry's foot skills than trading him. It worked for Chunk, his kicking early on was woeful 

    Salem, Billings, Rivers and Windsor running through the middle and delivering i50 should help too

    Forward strategies are more the issue. Ban the long bomb, always look at a kick to advantage, get injured/suspended players on the park. More to it than that obviously, but would certainly help

    Move over Goodwin, Moonshadow is our man!  You would probably do the job for quite a bit less coin too!

    Jeremy Cameron would look pretty nice in a demons jumper

    Fair, have removed that part of my comment. 
     

    You are a very unpleasant person however. 

    Thank you for that Smokey. But you don’t know me so just be content saying that you don’t agree with my remarks at all.

    Why couldn’t you be content saying you didn’t agree with my remarks instead of calling my comment stupid and demanding I support a player I already fully support? 
     

    Is that how you talk to people in person?

    I really don't see Clarry leaving.  He said himself, after the exit meeting, he really wanted to stay, and was acting in a more reactionary way when told to ship up.  He has no intention of leaving.  The club are clearly investing a lot of time and effort into him to get his mental wellbeing right, I don't see either the club or Clarry throwing in the towel on that right now.  Clarry is clearly working really hard, and he's clearly showing a lot of love for the club.

    Well I feel very upset when our champion is not supported from one of our loyal fans. Let’s not take our premiership heroes lightly. We still have a potentially good list and some young talent ready to shine. 

    Sometimes some comments in D/L are crazy and I feel obligated to respond. 
    Not always a considered response.

    Apologies Smokey if I have offended you.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
