I keep hearing Kitty Litter from a well connected mate of mine🤮

Yes Geelong have shown interest in him. Good for them. Please tell me what Geelong could possibly offer Melbourne, in order to trade a contracted Clarry?

The club has no interest in trading him. Has Clarry suddenly decided he is over the club and wants to live on a farm? Because if that’s the case then Geelong is going to have to come up with a godfather offer to pry him away from our cold dead hands. 

I am also interested in Charlie Curnow and a million dollars.

    But Jaded, kornes says we're gonna give up our 1st rounder just to get rid of him

    It’s gonna be Clarry and our first round pick and in return we get to never play in Geelong again.

    What's the big call Mark? 

    Drop him? Who's coming in and performing better? 

    Trade him? For what? 

    Assuming he isn't still an off field liability, the club and sensible supporters know exactly why his output is down. It shouldn't take much work for someone who's paid to cover the game to realise why that might be, either.

    Plenty of senior players just as bad as Oliver today. Including players who have had a pre season.

    Chook Fowler trade rumours - I’m on the open market.

    Perhaps we could trade you to the Saints for an ageing Molly Meldrum?

    A 2nd round pick and we only have to pay 200k a year of the contract and I’m happy to move on.

    Just like Grundy at the pies, sometimes you have to pay to get away from a bad deal even if you know it will hurt you.

    At the right price we'd be silly not to assess what potentially could benefit this club from a salary point of view and draft capital for future potential targets such as Finn Callaghan or a Harley Reid.

    Seems to have turned the corner from a mental and or physical health perspective which derailed his off season, he was never going to be at his best this year, why would we trade him now, were people not expecting this?

    We have seen his best downhill beckons

    Please stop referring to the preseason

    Hypothetically speaking, if Clarry returns to his best, does he help or hinder our future team?

    I think if we front up next year with Trac, Clarry and Viney as our starting mids, we will see results more like 2024 than 2021.

    The midfield mix that Freo had today was streets ahead of ours in terms of speed, skill and two way running. Including Andy Brayshaw, who isn’t known for his disposal by foot

    Edited by BW511

    Ahead of the season many of us were contemplating 2024 without Clayton playing a game. The fact that he's played most matches and most importantly appears happy, healthy and engaged, is well ahead of expectations. If he can keep that up and then complete a strong preseason, he'll be back and firing in 2025. He ain't going anywhere.

    Ok let’s refer to his nasty hand injury then 🙄

    Not having a pre season, has a monumental impact on performance

    Will you call for Trac to be traded if he struggles next year?

    I’d probably lower the eyes and aim for someone who wouldn’t be the best non Steven May recruit we’ve landed in decades. But the way I see it you can only carry maybe 3-5 mega deals at any time and if a player isn’t playing too it you’re better off moving on if you can.

    And these long free agency deals are meant to be bargains for 4-5 years when a guy is 30 or under and then a tax at the end. Like Lynch and Dusty at Richmond now. Anyone want to pay Oliver - even on his best behaviour - 900k at 32/33?

    That said, a lot depends on information we just don’t have as fans.

    No way I’d trade Clarry, but ffs he has to be held accountable for his performances this year - particularly today. Doesn’t defend, doesn’t tackle, doesn’t chase, and is an appalling kick. He needs to be dropped - not because there might be someone better to replace him (although after yesterdays effort, Pup deserves his spot), but to give Clarry a wake up call.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
