Good article on Oliver who is now living with the Brayshaw's http://www.aflplayers.com.au/article/new-demon-oliver-at-home-with-the-brayshaws/

What i got out of that article was how Toumpas failed some of those 'character test' yet Wines fitted into them beautifully...

Theres your first mistake.. taking Matthew Lloyd too serious. The guy is an absolute [censored] who can't take his bias essendon jumper off. I take more pleasure listening to Caro then this idiot.

I can see a padlock on this thread soon..

I'm not one for conspiracies but I wonder if the reason for putting Michie on the rookie list was based on that if Melksham did (has now) got rubbed out he would be the back up rookie elevation. It makes more sense now then putting someone like a Jayden Hunt who many wanted rookied instead of Michie. He can now come in as the big bodied mature age player to fill in for Melksham and can still come into the side and play a role. While I think White and Wagner would be other good options they are still unknown in terms of experience and ability (I do rate white highly though)

And i'm not sure your the best person to discuss in terms of what really happens in the culture of footy club TBH.

After what Paul Roos thought on our treatment of Watts then i highly doubt this. The Schwab Connolly days of trying to fairy tale every young player debut is over.

Which has nothing to do with Jason Taylor..

Take the time out to read this great article written by none other then Sam himself. A very impressive individual. Sam Weideman documents his draft experience before and after joining Melbourne

Good article here http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-draft-2015-melbourne-building-potent-attack-with-addition-of-sam-weideman/news-story/238e4cf7eab74c57ef7452aeb1d4743e

I can see Oliver turning his body shape into Josh Kennedy and Ollie Wines type physique - just a big ball of muscle. Said it plenty of times his upside is enormous.

Oliver has more speed the Parish.

Thats who i compared him to the other week after watching him this year.

You look at the way he is so agressive and crashing into contests not a care in the world for their safety. Screams of Luke Hodge doesn't it. And i [censored] hate Luke Hodge.

So round 1 we potentially have Clayton Oliver and Christian Petracca debuting together.. Oh my...

Got a gig at Casey.

New highlights are up.. get excited http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-11-24/oliver-claimed-with-melbournes-first-pick

This comment makes me vomit.

And Oliver looks like a seasoned veteran.

Melbourne FC ‏@melbournefc 36s36 seconds ago JT on Weideman: He never takes his eye off the ball, is strong one-on-one. He’s a good set-shot kick, good awareness around him." #AFLDraft

If anyone just saw Oliver in a Melbourne jumper you'll get excited he is built like a brick shithouse.
