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.

Mine was awesome

massive bonfire at property in Gisborne - spent a year building it

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!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
