That’s just absolute rot. He got Brownlow votes, he was fine 

Wrong.
Clarry was gassed by the Second Quarter. I don’t take any notice of the Brownlow

Couldn't agree more.  And this again shows he's treated differently to others.  I don't care how good he was/is - he needed to have several months of hard work to get back into that team. Instead he trained for 5 minutes and never missed an AFL game.  

A very Wise answer….

I admire the loyalty to the club, I really do, but don't let it blind you and make you out to be a fool. This constant blaming the media instead of holding leaders at the club accountable reminds me of the Essendon supporters response to their doping program.

its not me with any loyalty to the club, i simply said there is no way a CEO of football has done the ring around. there is numerous, 3+ player management roles within the club, and the CEO is definitely not one of them

You can use 12 ft ladder on age article. Copy pasta the url and it will 'clean it up' for you

All this argument about what punishment Clayton should’ve would’ve could’ve had.
The time is gone, cutting off our nose to spite our face now will not help. 

I’m glad he’s staying, he makes us a better team, his form dropped against Port when he hurt his hand and never recovered. We’re a better team with him, Geelong are worse without him and we’ve missed out on a 2026 pick which wouldn’t have helped us next year anyway. I don’t care what the media say, their bias against us is clear. Maybe our club is a dumpster fire, maybe it’s not. There’s actually been very little concrete proof. I’m backing Clayton in for a huge 2025 and with a bit of luck with injuries and our young blokes improving, + pick 5 a new forward and mid coach and some cobwebs cleared out in the program we’ll be a formidable team.

Let’s be realistic here, if you think everything that has come out has been a lie then you are delusional 

By the same token if you believe everything that is in the media you certainly are delusional.

Dees not trading him, will address it at the B&F

Cats only prepared to take his full (or close to full) contract if he came cheap via trade

OK if Oliver stays what’s Petracca going to do?

the depth at Casey had done the work in the preseason to be fit to play AFL. Goodwin and others selected Oliver when he had not done the work and was not fit to play AFL and this was exploited by his opponents who knew they could outspread him, and the more they ran, the further he'd be behind them. 

For CARRRYST SAKE HE PLAYED MOST OF THE SEASON WITH A BADLY BROKEN HAND!

Why did he do that PF? Or why did the Club pick him then? Either Clarry or the Club cannot / don’t deserve to use that excuse.

PS I assume you won’t be leaving us now PF?

Well Crisis Management must not be the General Manager for Media and Comms forte.

the way the media are heading, most clubs will need to hire a dedicated crisis manager ... or just do a deal with the bikies

I love the way you spell ‘Carrryst’ PF. It really helps me get in character when I read out your posts in my head.

What a couple of weeks, we’re paying $24 for the premiership in 2025 (11th favourite).

I’m waiting till we hit $34 then I’m going to load up.

The last 2 months have been brutal on so many fronts.  So many poor choices by the club and grade 1 level of communication to members and supporters.  But we need to move to looking forward - hoping Thomas Fullers famous quote is correct starting tomorrow - “ the darkest hour is right before the dawn”. - and the Paul Kelly addition - “ and in the hour of greatest slaughter the great avenger is being born…”.    Eyes forward now

That's shortened quite a bit. We were $51 and 15th about a week ago!

Rightio

The issue is nobody can tell me who we should have played instead. I’d take Clarry at 80% over any of the other options at 100

While I appreciate that there are posters on here who have ADD and other mental health issues

ADHD is not a mental health issue. It's neurological disorder. 

However, living with it can create mental health issues though equally, people with ADHD can enjoy perfect mental health in the right environment and with the right support.

Awkward live interview with Viney form the B and F and channel 10 news.

Reporter “(Oliver) met with Geelong, he clearly has some interest, have you spoken to him recently at all and what has he said?”

Viney “yeah I’ve spoken to Claz and at this time of year there’s always you know trade rumours and this kind of stuff and players meeting with other clubs so I spoke to Clazz and he’s you know, looking forward to umm…”

*looks awkwardly away to someone off camera

”..you know, I’m looking forward to him being part of the Melbourne Footy Club next year.”

Reporter “and you’re certain he is as well?”

Viney “I’m mean I’m not privy to list management decisions but my understanding is yeah, he’s a Melbourne Football player next year.”

Yet had we made him continue to do a block of pre season training and made a statement after the Lorne incident with a multiple game ban as other clubs did with Stevie J, Heath Shaw and Michael Walters in the past we may well have

1. Got his fitness at a level which would have lasted for the remainder of the season 

2. Set a standard and message to the playing group that poor behaviour would not be tolerated 

3. Made a decision which didn’t cause division within the playing group over preferential treatment 

4. Long term view but we may not be in the current situation had we chosen action as opposed to talking tough

Whilst i agree he should have been made to work for his place in the team, the AFL has a culture of sweeping things under the carpet. Look at De Geoy, beating a man and forcibly touching a woman, spent time in NY jail. Punishment was zero games missing. Many stars have a different set of rules than their teammates. We are not alone here. 

Jack has spoken, end of story. 🫣

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
