Clarry needs to be subbed off at half time -  his efforts are embarrassing….

    I'm sorry but poor Oliver is just lost out there.

    He had one touch that quarter and five for the whole game.

    Of those he's just turned it over.

    Almost feel he should be subbed off.

    We can't afford to carry these sort of games.

    I know he's been one of the greatest players ever for us but that makes it even more worrying.

    Oliver’s hand has to be the excuse . So if he cannot handball or tackle, then why is he out there? Seriously it is so glaringly obvious he does not belong in the starting line up.

    sub oliver off to give him a rest. they guy needs time to recover. At the moment he is a liability the way he is playing. our forwards need to do better, as does our delivery into the forward line. a lot of good play up fields is totally destroyed by our delivery into the forward line. and the umpiring has been pretty bad our players held, pushed in the back, they drop the ball everything going unnoticed by the umpires. really the AFL needs to do something about that.

     

    Oliver playing like trash.

    Sub him out.

    Here at the ground Oliver looks sick

    Just nicked out the shed for a dart.
    Radio on and hear the commentators.
    "Bit of a nothing game ATM"
    "Yeah, hasn't reached any great heights."

    This is my issue with Goodwin.
    Our games never do.
    Dour, rugby scrum.

    Effort fantastic. Kossie one on one will beat anyone. Great to be here on a beautiful night.

    Love Oliver to be subbed, but if Marshall is out, we are very tall down back

    It always feels like Port spear their kicks and we're just up and under kings.

    Exactly. Up and under kings … jv7, Salem, Billings, Clarry… all like 9 iron chip kicks versus Houston, Bergman, Horne-Francis darts !!!

    Petty's been good. Turner too.

    Jvr bern struggling of late but he gives his all. 

    Our delivery fwd hasn't been quick like Ports.

    And to be fair , Port have flooded our fwd line quick smart all night.

    Surely it's not still his hand. Don't know what it is. You'd think instinct would kick in.How can you go from being the best player in the league to being a passenger 

    Get Melky on. Even Jeffo would have got his hands on some of those balls coming in. And Blake Howes is a complete waste of space down back.

    His hands just aren’t that good, just not a one grabber


    Where has that forward half pressure been in the last 6 weeks?

    Really sick and tired with all and sundry, commentators included, slagging the champion that is Clayton Oliver. Issues well documented and 14 pins in his hand and still our highest possession gatherer for the season. He'll be back bigger and better than ever. Champions are rare. Give him the respect he deserves. 

    Absolutely agree!

    Glad our match day entertainment has succumb to the stupid visuals of people in the crowd

    Came to say the same. He tried making himself throw up with the doctor standing next to him. 

     

    Really liking what I've seen today.

    Nothing perfect or flashy but highly contested and every player giving a lot of effort.

    This is what we need to see for the rest of the season.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
