I can see that Max in Qld and I remember Max saying he was trying to get Clarry to go with him and not go to the states.  It seems he has done neither, am I reading to much into it?

    Perhaps. Or maybe not enough?

    I heard a few weeks back that Clarry was keen to go, havent had an update since.

    So he was keen to go before we allegedly shopped him?

    No keen to go after he was shopped.

    Source - My wife’s boyfriend - said that OLIVER will either stay at Melbourne or he won’t. 
     

    to be fair, I think from a Melbourne position we hold him for 12 more months. The main reasons for this are:

    Teams don’t get better losing A grade talent. 

    I don’t think Geelong will give us what we believe he is worth - trade wise.

    We definitely do not need to clear up our books, so his contract is not detrimental to us signing players or retaining players. 

    I think that he will return to form with a pre season leading to an increase in form and therefore increase in trade value. If in 12 months he wants to leave then we can shop him around and put him on the market as opposed to just Geelong. if he does not return to form - his value will be what is being offered to us by Geelong anyway. 

    I think that there is no real net gain for us to send off OLIVER unless we are able to get 2 x first rounders or something similar in value.
    Also if we trade OLIVER we basically go into full rebuild mode. which I’m not sure will be fun 

     

    What a bunch of scum bags, the satellite rural team and them and their bloody posh bumpkins are.

    That should get a bite.

    Why because you simply don't agree with his opinion?? 

    Put him on ignore then. Not for you to tell everyone else what they should and shouldn't do.

    Surely there is no way we trade him regardless of what he may want after our FD and president kept saying there’s no way it happens. Club must be able to have the final say.

    Everyone has a price… but yes it’s unlikely he moves because no one wants him as much as we need to recoup from him.

    Personally I'd love to see Oliver stay and get back to his best footy with us. This said I also back in our Footy Department to facilitate a trade that gets us back to our best footy and improves the balance of our list over the medium to longer term. Paul Roos always said that every player is tradable and I think the current situation re Oliver is in line with this philosophy. I think us supporters would love a redemption story but also should accept, and back in our Footy Department to make a decision re whether a fresh start might be best for both Oliver and our team.

    Only three days left of trade period, and speculation. Thank goodness. 136 pages to prove no-one has any real idea of what is going to happen.

    It's getting too late in the trade period for this deal to get done.  He'll be a Melbourne player for at least another twelve months.

    3 days is still loads of time for anything to happen. 
    This Clusterf$&@ should have been sorted out 12 months ago 

    That is the lesson to learn

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
