Clarry is wonderful! Here's a sketch from a few years back. I don't seem to have a photo of the more detailed portrait I did of him (and am travelling so away from sketchboom), from one of the games where he was scratched on the forehead and was applauded as he went off for the blood rule.

Clarry is always so joyously intent when he's on the field, especially when he's at his fittest and performing miracles 🥰❤️💙

Bravo DP.👍💕

Best of luck to Clarry, definitely was one our best for a very long period, deserves a good day.

Fingers crossed if not traded, he finds that red hot form again soon.

Nice story from howie.

Clayton comes across as a quiet media shy guy. Maybe he didn't want a fuss.

But at least someone in the media is positive

Anyone who has ever met him would tell you exactly the same thing. He is humble and genuine and caring and the way the media has treated him the last two years is nothing short of shameful!

And what’s more shameful is the amount of supporters who fell for the lies.

don't know how most of you still live in Melbourne its crazy to me, why do I feel like this will be a thing now with like what happened to several NBA and NFL players this year

Happened during the week apparently. I took it as Clayton wasn't targeted, maybe they didn't know it was his house. Hopefully his medal is safe

He was a great player, but that rough patch is undoubtedly still happening. He is better than last year, but a shadow of his best self.

200th already. Where did that go. Well done young fella.

His player Ratings back up the disappointing 2024 but also a reasonable rebound without being back to his best. Noting that 2020 was the compromised Covid season with shorter quarters but where he was still ranked the No.1 player ahead of Tracc (3.56) and Max (2.95).

And when i say reasonable, that rebound still sees him sitting in the No.2 ranking only behind the skipper this season! So reasonable needs to be kept in context as in reasonable vs his prior magnifique years (inc. B&Fs)!

Can he get back to his best or somewhere near it? Let's hope so.

Watching Clazz in full flight is a sight to behold and something etched in my memory. Defined by so many Houdini moments of brilliance. He still showes that from time to time, but without the explosive leg strength and side stepping, baulking and miraculous off the ground scoops (etc!) we had come to take somewhat for granted over his very best seasons.

But we should never say never. He just might get there or very close.

Regardless no one can take the best that Clazz has given us away, including the 2021 season with the magnificent finish.

May he keep on Clarrying on!

The difficulties of 2023/24 were his poor response to being injured, which he had never had to deal with before.

Spot on Mb, Claz didn’t cope well at all with not being able to play. He doesn’t know how to do sidelines. He tried and it didn’t work out and he spiralled. As you said, he’d never had to deal with injury before.

Congratulations to Clayton Oliver reaching 200 games.

He is a champion of the Melbourne Football Club.

One of my all-time favourite Demon players! ❤️💙

Hope he plays another 200 games for the Melbourne Football Club and reaches 400 games!

Well done on your milestone Clarry! Wishing you all the best! 👹😎👍🏻

King Claz.

Hope we have a big win for a true champion of the club and competition

Clazza is my favourite player of all time. He is super humble and friendly. Lovely to my kids (and all kids for that matter) and very genuine.

He could’ve retired at the conclusion of 2021 and would still be one of the greatest MFC players of all time.

I won’t be there this week as I am overseas but I will be watching at a bar somewhere….

Good luck tonight Clazza!!
