He's not invincible mate.. He has a well known history of footy injuries and if anyone who has battled Achillies issues would know that he can be quiet debilitating and potentially career ending (not saying that will be the case) but there are many players over time who have had to retire early due to ongoing Achillies issues.

He is battling achillies issues.

Pretty sure this information is actually incorrect being a top ager.. Marley is only 15 and is soon to turn 16 in January which means he is a bottom age at Oakleigh by two years.

Fancy actually thinking on here Clayton Oliver is better then Gary Ablett Senior and Wayne Carey.. Place is officially cooked.

Oh dang, you were serious.. Bailey Smith won the coaches award last year, do we start putting him in the same discussion as well after he probably wins another next year? Honestly, no offence, but one of the more ridiculous comparisons I have seen. Carey is one of the greatest footballers we have ever seen in the game full stop. On pure talent alone taking away the off field dtuff there is still no comparisons, both Carey and Ablett are light years ahead of Oliver. Oliver isnt even top 20 of the games greatest players lol. Nah thats outright ridiculous mate. You've officially lost the plot if you genuinely believe this. This is where you've got your red and blue blinkers on firmly tight. Probably best to take a longer spell off here.

Surely taking the [censored] putting Clarrie in the same bracket as Carey and Ablett snr 🤣🤣

Lols

Had the privileged of watching him player when i was coming through the ranks at junior level. Genuine freakshow he was. Would kick bags of 100 anywhere he went. Depending on who you also speak to from within that area, some will argue that Damien was the far more talented brother out of him and Adem but just didn't have the same application and drive as what Adem had. Damien was also on our supplementary list back in the 90's There is another Yze brother named Ramadan who is still playing locally for Shepp United reserves.

Just on Culley in the match sims, is he being stationed out on a wing or is he playing more inside midfield?

Correct. Big clan of Yze's that still reside in that area

Good live update on training as well.

He'll surprise many on here playing a few games with the new ruck rule next year Could easily be our Hayden McLean type player.

Something Goodwin didnt have the balls to do for the past couple of years. My respect for King went up a thousand knots after the decision was finally made. This is blatantly wrong Pickett. King put it Oliver around his expectations and the way he sees him fitting into this side moving forward. As always, without thinking Oliver cracked the sads and acted like a petulant child. Instead of taking on the feedback and working his [censored] off he took the easy way out. If you want to know the difference in character, go read the Jack Steele article who pretty much got told the exact same thing by Lyon but was willing to stick it out and work it through. Once again, good riddance to Oliver

Its already been shared.

You'll be wrong again.

Mitch Hardie has signed a 2 year deal at Wangaratta Rovers

Yeah, not really. The game has changed significantly since 2021. It's still laughable that some still revert back to our premiership year as a reference point for today's game Now days it's about quick transition and putting speed on the ball, something Olive has lacked over the last couple of years. Back in the 2021 period it was all about contest and defence where guys like Ollie Wines, Clayton Oliver and Tom Mitchell would thrive in contested footy and stoppage. Now, the big slow contested plodders are a dying breed. Look at where guys like Mitchell, Oliver and Wines are at with their football, they are genuine slow plodders that struggle to cover ground and work both ways in transition. Ollie Greeves learnt a huge reality check when he was picked in the rookie draft because as Cal Twomey said, clubs are worried about his inability to transition quick both ways. Oliver is and always will struggle as a two-way runner. The number of times i was tearing my hair out watching him plod around and not get back into defence supporting the backs was constant frustration for a number of years.

You and me both mate considering im based in Albury. I see Richmond did their community camp in my childhood town of Yarrawonga...bit jealous. They could easily make use of both Wodonga Bulldogs and Raiders footy ground facilities and there is enough gyms in town to use if need.

Legend @Where Demons Dare I think even I'm on my haunches just reading that.... Sounds like a taxing day for the players.

Pretty sure i read that this new academy changes don't kick in until either 2027 or 2028?

Does that mean we have lost out to the Dandenong Stingrays area?

I did, and this is what it came up with..... 🤨
