Why? What if the teams get better? Who knows what the future holds. Nobody saw ‘21 coming. Sometimes you’ve got to make moves to improve.

FWIW, I listened to some of the "what's next for the Dees in 2025" and the cough pundits cough had us in the window and/or with a bright future (JVR, Judd, Pickett, Rivers etc). With caveats of course, but no reason to write us off yet. And we actually did OK earlier in the year with an underdone Oliver so who knows. Always look on the bright side ...

    Clayton's no rocket scientist. 

    I think I could follow a team made up of PhD students. A few Greek classicists mixed up with some exotic mathematicians.

    Stress free by comparison to the mess we have now

    The Age says that on his current contract Oliver would be easily the highest-paid player at Geelong. So that’s ahead of Jeremy Cameron and Patrick Dangerfield.  It says Geelong has rarely overpaid for even the top-end players they have had. Seems like they’re far better money and player managers than we are.

    I have no issue with Oliver taking a pay cut.  IFF he wants to go, he and his agent need to pull their finger out and broker a deal that is irresistable to MFC.  MFC need do nothing.  I see advantage in the salary dump as we are a couple of players off premiers..

    But they're also helped by the fact that houses cost less in Geelong/surf coast so the players are ok will bring paid slightly less. Let alone the under the table deals...

    Yeah, the crappy areas of Geelong.

    Better areas of Geelong and the nicer surf coast towns are not cheap. They'd get little change out of $1.5mill for better houses

    Oh well he's gone if he's liked that insta post. 

    No Dees, he's gone if we trade him. I get the other side of the argument but I hope we hold him to his contract.

    Pretty pathetic from Clayton. Very childish, if that is him. At least Christian kept quiet.

    The MFC has bent over backwards for this [censored].

    He is a 27yo that needs 24/7 baby sitting. One day he might turn into a grown up.

     

     

    His ex gf must be a saint. She held him together for his MFC career until last year. 

    Part of the new Geelong contract should stipulate a clause that he must have another gf mothering him

    if he really, really wants to go and we play hard ball, it will be interesting to see if he will take a new reduced salary contract at the cattery. if he does, no salary relief from us and cats prepared to give us a better trade/pick deal.

    Apologies folks. Was just trying to prevent a few heart attacks. If Oliver is ‘liking’ those types of social media posts, then you can bet we’re pushing him out the door. Don’t complain about our culture then in the same sentence complain about a cultural issue being shown the door. Amazing player, could’ve gone down as one of our best. It’s unfortunate (if he does indeed leave), but I’ll just look at it as an opportunity.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
