Wow ... that's a seriously long paragraph.

And a very good one

 

Oliver met with Geelong.

Geelong asked the question.

Melbourne asked for three first rounders and told them we won't budge on that.

Geelong said they won't/can't do that.

Subject closed.

For McClure et al to bang on about clearing his Dees locker and choosing his number at the Cats is pure BS.

they are all fwits. And the managers seem even worse. Toxic cycle of gullable young footballers unwittingly fuelling the mess.

He said it to camera on Channel 7.

Still wasting your time Wilmoy how many times are you refusing to believe what Clarry said. All that matters now is he is on board and getting raring  to go. Let it rest. As KD said he said it on Nat TV Ch 7 last Saturday at the races when interviewed. Other footballers were on the same program from Ch 7 obviously invited to attend on the day.

That particular part of the story drove me nuts the most, it was the most hyperbolic BS ever and attempted to make it out that his position at the club was untenable.

I would genuinely like to know from the reporters/journo's of the AFL media, why is it that when there are certain players that have clearly been struggling with mental health issues that they back off, and others that are in the same camp they do everything to make them from page news.

It was the same issue that I had with the reporting on Petracca, I get the drama was juicy but we're dealing with a young bloke who suffered a traumatic injury and was told he almost died. Give it a bloody rest!

Did anything precipitate Oliver meeting with Geelong?

That interview was selectively edited to give answers to the particular questions that this scumbag wanted answered. .Oliver was bailed up in the course of his weekend off  and he would have thought that this would be a sincere recording with truthful motives. As per usual the media have attempted to break up the peace and harmony of Australia's best morally ethical club.

One would assume so but all my info on this comes from the Geelong side so I don't know the intricacies of that.

Yeah I don't participate in this anymore. I get that these forums are meant for the overly dramatic types but some of the infighting these days on here is getting to Carlton/Filth territory.

Why go in it then?


We obviously have the best players and the best standards of all the clubs, just like the Coach said.

And as you say willmoy, we set the highest standards, and are not fooled by fake doctored interviews and false platitudes.

I just want Clarrie to make Damian Barrett, Mclure, Morris and every other d/head jounro eat it.

Yeah but they’re not real journos - they are the kind that the joke about the nun buying a donkey ridicule. The one with the final punchline in the paper, “nun sells [censored] for $10”.

The autocensor has gone right over the woke top - the word presumably censored, I will try a55, has been used to describe a donkey for thousands of years, including multiple mentions in biblical texts.  According to a google search over 60 references to the beast.  

The woke are certainly making donkeys of themselves.   

I couldn't used the common abbreviation of Richard on several occasions even though it was capitalised and is widely used.  Making themselves Richards over this one too.

What next?  Demon may be taken as satanic so maybe eventually we won't  be able to use that either?

I'm sorry, but, you think that is a woke thing?

Like, you're joking, right?

I reckon the censor is actually fascist.

I mean, it's right there in the name - auto censor.

As in Autocratic Censor.

Wake up people. Do your own research.

I thought it was related to indigenous smoking ceremonies.

Everything I’ve heard from Clayton makes me think he’s going to have a break out year. What that means for a 3xAA I’m not sure. Might put a couple of $ on him for Chas. 

What have ou heard Stu?

Just what he’s been saying in any interviews - training hard, disappointed with last year, going to get MFC back up the ladder. Seems very focused and more serious than usual.

How could Geelong do this?

Didn't the Geelong interest predate the club gauging interest from others?

exactly . Just not the story that gets clicks. 

Intersting with Bailey Smith they spent so much time getting him over too. So, by the time it came  to “trade” him everyone knows he’s going to Geelong and the cats give v little to get him. That’s their playbook.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
