Rumour 2023 Rumours and Speculation (Rumours total 33!, 1 BIG FISH ALERT last October 4th) (7 confirmed! 11 Busted!)

[El Doederino]

He’s a free agent isn’t he? So he’s not really requesting a move.

RFA, we can match the Lions offer.

 

[Betts are off]

and also get the Dees 1st rounder too.

At the bare minimum

 

[Hodgy]

Clubs fighting over a fringe player moving to his 3rd club. Not overly fussed if he comes here. Just keep Berg if he doesn't cone, basically the same player.

The only reason I could see to do this, from both sides, is if we want him to ruck with Tillthorpe swapping forward and we don’t think ROB can do this. If it’s backup then surely he wouldn’t be even considering us.

 

[MsTopG]

Hopefully he can stay fit and possibly win a flag up there. A early 2nd would be nice.

I wonder if the rumours of him being not happy about Dawson getting the captaincy is true and also helped make his decision

. Sincerely.

Great lad, really good footy player.

Hope you have a good career up in Brissy.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Our picks whatever they are would need to enable the Dees to get pick 1 (Harley Reid) who it's common knowledge even before Oliver's name entered the fray they were prepared to pay up big to get him.

Even more reason why picks not a player like Rachele is relevant to any discussion.

We have plenty of picks!

Nah, he wants $ and security in his contract. We didn't offer it (or enough to satisfy him) so he's on the move. It is what it is.

 

[Golumless]

The only reason I could see to do this, from both sides, is if we want him to ruck with Tillthorpe swapping forward and we don’t think ROB can do this. If it’s backup then surely he wouldn’t be even considering us.

I also think this, though I reckon it's the opposite. We're likely thinking about switching Thilthorpe into becoming a 1st ruck with Chol taking over his forward role.

Our lack of usage with Thilthorpe as a forward last year was certainly, well, curious. Especially for a club that tends to play things by the book.

Melbourne saying he's a contracted player... hasn't really extinguished any trade rumors

Yep. That article is a clickbait nothingburger.

Yep. That article is a clickbait nothingburger.

And the "interview" with him is from last weekend. Just asking about his knee surgery.

 

[1990crow]

All our best creators on here need to come up with an Oliver in a a Crows jumper to post on here.

Clayton/Cletus

 

[ftmch]

Do you reckon Nicks would know that Clayton Oliver isn't a back pocket or would Clayton have to tell him?

Some of your best work

 

[MsTopG]

I'm not overly fussed in Clayton Oliver cones here.

Why? He's one of the best mids in the league and our midfield is our major weakness.

 

[MsTopG]

If he left over that he's soft and we're better off without him. He's no star and is injury prone.
