All sorts of trade dross 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

 

Only way I see Oliver leaving is if Saints, Bombers or Tigers put their hand up and convince him to come. Cats aren't going to pay that much for him.


Players not fussed if Oliver's traded.. speaks volume in itself.

No, and no doubt at Geelong's direction.

It sounds boring but is actually an important ritual for keeping Collingwood supporters out - they look and ask where the tennis balls are.

They are currently having a revival led by a gameshow format they borrowed from the BBC hosted by celebrity talent on loan from the ABC.

Unfortunately woe jnr isn’t going to make the cut… his decision making is way to slow for AFL level. The pace of attack slows when he has the ball

Unfortunately the fact that this rumour hasn’t been put to bed usually means that there is a strong possibility that Oliver will be traded. At no point in time has Oliver actually come out and said that he is staying. As it stands today, Oliver is out the door.

Nothing more cringe then a drunk fan annoying an AFL player.. 

the increasing use of the word cringe in this context is quite annoying

Don't tell @Ethan Tremblay about dropping below Adelaide!

Also... seriously, isn't pretty much everyone's 19th Birthday their worst... so far...

Mine was awesome

Fire could be seen from the Calder all the way from the north and up the Mount

.......OR!.
No trades since day one and they have nothing else to talk about.
Graeme Wright as CEO was the most exciting thing that happened on trade radio,.... not sure if Collingwood gets a future president in return.

Oliver’s opinion is largely irrelevant. All that matter is whether Geelong are serious or totally taking the [censored] as usual.

If they make us a reasonable deal then we can have a conversation.

sorry, back for another crack at this post.
Can I just flip some of your words.... and in doing so they are still 100% as accurate as yours.  Humour me.

"At no point in time has Oliver actually come out and said that he is leaving. As it stands today, Oliver is a Dees player."

Oliver does not have to say anything, and nor should he.  Tim Lamb and Brad Green publicly have said he isn't going anywhere. Technically as it stands today, that is the ONLY definitive statement about Oliver that has been made. 

Should I believe them? not definitively, but I trust them more than Barrett, McClure and the others that are bored because nothing is happening.

Nonsense, Oliver trade has had almost more media attention than trac. It’s in everyone’s best interest to quash the story and move on. A 2 minute interview saying how much he is looking forward to next season is sufficient. Concerning that they can’t even give us that

oh, sorry he's had media attention!  😲  damn, how could I have missed that part.

Thanks, phew my life now will so much easier, I can just let the media tell me what is true! 

The rumour is floating around because people are bored, and the MFC is an easy target at the moment with the mess they are in. Petracca was 100% gone, before he wasn't, and my statement where I changed a couple of words is absolutely as accurate as your words were, it is not nonsense. It's just opinions!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
