Player Watch #13 Clayton Oliver – UNPRECEDENTED 4 x B&F, 3 x AA, 2 x AFLCA Winner and Premiership Player

[Proper Gander]

I usually get draft stuff way off because I know nothing about it, but I did really want a Petracca/Brayshaw/Miller trio in that draft because I read somewhere that they were friends.

Thanks for reading.

Thanks for posting.

Now that this is out of the way, can you please run me through how you are a community leader again?

Gold, Topkent

I remember pre-2014 draft when there was talk about us taking Touk with the pick we gave up for Frosty + the picks we eventually used on ANB and Oscar. Sad!

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

I reckon the year Clarry finally polls the most votes in the Brownlow will be the year he cops a suspension for the first time and it’ll be beautiful.

I am but hes won awards and that before, Miller hadn't received much recognition playing for such a bad team his whole career. And I just love his story and how hes become a gun, from tagger, to club captain and gun ball winner who shows up every week for his team.

Love players who get to the top when never expected to do so. Never would have guessed Miller would be the player he is today in his first season.

There is an old thread on the drafts board from about 2012 claiming he will be the number 1 pick in 2014

Now that thread starter has a good eye for talent

When will this flog get a haircut and have a shave!

Ive met cardboard with more personality than Clarry I reckon.

Where has that sharp Clarry been hiding? Thats the type of stuff id love to hear and see on a regular basis. Not the mumbling nimrod we usually get.

I think he may just be one of those that gets really nervous and doesn't enjoy public speaking.

I saw him on the Dyl and Friends podcast once. He’s never going to be John F Kennedy, but in a relaxed setting he can chat away without referring to the four squares of anything

 

[Bluelegs]

I actually think Goody and Dew's intro was more awkward than Clarry and Touk's speech

Has the disgraceful result of Macrae winning last year's Gary Ayres award (because he played an extra game) been reversed?

“From 2022 any AFL Grand Final votes issued will receive 1.5 times loading.”

Clearly recognising 2021 broke the system

Surely they could just use average votes? Silly that they didn't see the problem with this previously.

Using an average you could have the reverse situation where someone wins the medal for 1 amazing game.

I would have thought Petracca would have polled best for us.

vs Bris - 2BOG behind Oliver
vs Geel - 2BOG behind Gawn
vs WB - BOG
