I wonder what his error of judgment specifically was?

    Hopefully Clarry can put the season from hell behind him. Get his mind and body fit and healthy and get back to playing his best footy which is the best footy I've seen from almost any of his contemporaries.

    Likewise, Geelong have kept an eye on Oliver all season.

    Privately, the Cats think they could accommodate Oliver and Western Bulldogs’ Bailey Smith in its salary cap for next season, but a deal for both would be enormously difficult.

    Good, get him fixed up.

    Is anyone else nervous with Oliver & the upcoming off season?

    Just hope the only headlines we read about him are positive ones

    I'm not nervous. I think he will be head down, bum up, and will come back in ripping form.

    Good, will be a net positive for the final 2 rounds. He's been between serviceable and liability for much of the season and his last 3 weeks diabolical.

    Amw back in ,Judd more midfield please. 

    We need to make clarry earn his spot through performance next year

    Get real !! The bloke has been playing injured and you cannot resist a crack at him !!

    And unquestionably still be our best midfielder this year. 

    Unquestionably? Why then are there 6 midfielders listed above him in the Dland "player of the year"?

    Who's copping more grief right now?  MFC or Raygun?  The pile on is over the top in both cases.

    https://www.3aw.com.au/sam-mcclure-gives-the-latest-on-the-unfolding-situation-at-melbourne/

    Sam McClure in this grab said that he knows "for a fact" that other players at the club didn't like how Clarry was treated, i.e. saying they'd have been dropped for a month when he didn't cop anything.

    If true (and yes, it's McClure), that tells me one of two things has gone wrong:

    1. The club's response to Clarry's situation was not the right approach having regard to the rest of the team's dynamic and views
    2. The club's response to Clarry's situation was correct, but we don't have a stable playing group who can appreciate this, and/or we weren't able to explain our approach to those other players in a way which they'd accept and understand.

    Maybe the report's not true. He told everyone West Coast wasn't picking Reid because he wasn't going to go there last year. So yeah. But if it's true, it's not good for us.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
