Oliver Trade Rumours

[Demons11 7,096]

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?

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

No keen to go after he was shopped.

Wasn't he only shopped last week?

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.

You just didDD36

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.

It’s wild. 

136 pages in, yet this post would be be perfectly at home on top of page one.

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.

or he won't

you're welcome

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
