Up the middle, that's where the action is!

Always attack an opponent's strengths, not weaknesses. No-one expects you to attack the strongest part of the fort. Take life by its little bunny ears and get in its face, because that my friend is LIVING! 

Thats been my philosophy….60% of the time it works every time!

Now just wait for Tom [censored] Morris...." wait...it hasnt been put to bed" 

Great we can get some  clarity however...if clarry isnt fired up now for a big season he never will be. Love to see him be in great form again and attack the season,

[DeeZone 9,458]

Hmmnnn, they spoke with his manager, that is Clayton Oliver’s Manager, a fleeting meeting, we respect Melbournes Stance and will put it to bed.

Thanks Andrew Mackie for clearing the air…!!!!!

I believed our President at the B&F when he said we will start Round 1 at the G with Gawn, Viney, Oliver and Petracca. Go Figger.❤️💙💕

Lamb was pretty careful with his wording as to how we got into such a hot mess but he was definitive about where Oliver will be playing next season.

The AFL owes us for keeping the AFL in the news during otherwise dull weeks.  Sadly, the reward will probably be getting to play Geelong twice at GMBH next year.

Whatever the review raises Green and co need to address the circus club has become … the last 12mths is a joke with the going ons of Oliver, Trac and constant noise enough is enough, either keep these players or trade them!

The Clayton's trade. The trade you agree where Clayton isn't being traded.

A Noosa round Pert's neck?

[deejammin' 2,359]

I’m now very certain Geelong and Clarry’s manager caused this. They spoke to Pert to determine a value, we didn’t provide one, he was never up for trade, Geelong pushed hard to pitch to him, Clarry met with them but never asked for a trade. Geelong created the story and are trying to look graceful in backing away.
 

Whether Pert made a mistake and was drawn into a conversation about Clarry’s value stupidly given he wasn’t tradable is the only remaining question. This is far more a media than an MFC circus. Only possible one at fault is Pert.

The only MFC public statements from Richo, Green and Lamb have been 100% consistent. The rest is unconfirmed media whispers.

Except that Clarry liked the instagram post that said he could be joining Bayley Smith and Jack Martin at the Cattery.

And if we finished top we would be forced to play our finals at the venue too :P

Andrew Mackie:

‘We contacted Pert and Clayton’s manager regularly about Clayton for over two years, escalating in the past two months. We had Clayton have a phone call with our senior administrators and go out to a farm to be pitched by our players and repeatedly told the media all about it. We floated our future first through the media to push the story Melbourne needed to get his contract off their books and were pushing him out. All despite Richardson and Lamb saying he was not up for trade. And now, after the board has confirmed it and MFC have given us a whack privately at trade week and Clayton has told us no we are respecting their position and putting it to bed’

*not a real quote. A sarcastic but real summary of everything Geelong did in this saga.

Clarry was Def open to a trade.
