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

[WAG]

So I guess he must have failed our medical?

He didn't pass the sniff test.

 

[FR0GGY]

He didn't pass the sniff test.

Gave the wrong answer to keeping your powder dry.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I reckon people in here were overrating our chances yesterday but underrating them today

Melb was always going to come out with a similar statement

Let’s wait for what Oliver says

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Melbourne being open to him staying

BUT ....Melbourne have stopped short of declaring they won't trade Oliver .....the words used are "we want him to stay"

But the SEN reporter added Oliver, in recent days, had shown “some willingness to return to the fold” and conceded his living arrangements and social lifestyle “perhaps haven’t been befitting of an AFL player”.

 

[Gtowncrow]

So where are we now with this news eventuating?

We still have a great draft hand for this year.
We still have full control over the manipulation of next years draft to match bids.
We still have all our youth and future.

AND...

We still apparently have a war chest of Clayton Oliver

proportions x 7 years!!!

Oh...and we still have the memory of beating Port twice this year

 

[Cap]

The worst part of this will be BT or Dwayne Russell using it in commentary.

And you know those talentless hacks will

 

[ams4crows]

35% of Crows posters had Oliver coming to us.

When did we cross the meridian line between optimism & pessimism ?

I think you mean a 5-0 whitewash (both AFL and SANFL and AFLW).

 

[Betts are off]

So should I cancel my order of 10,000 "Make Adelaide Clayt Again" caps?

Or replace them with "Wait'n 4 Clayton" Tshirts?

Melbourne hasn’t made any statement, journos are just speculating

 

[Rabish Binney]

'living arrangements and social lifestyle perhaps haven't been befitting of an AFL player'

Fairly big red flag there.

Didn't we let Stengle go for similar reasons?

Was he living in a brothel?

Stengle already had 2 strikes (DUI and coke), how many does Oliver have?

If any i will be 1 otherwise it would be made public and 4 weeks out suspended

Yeah, my eyebrows are still raised at how Melbourne has handled this.

Emergency board meeting, no official statement and a press leak of shape up or ship out. Seems rather strange if you were confident in keeping a player.

 

[feenix67]

Was this all just a ruse to add spice to the upcoming AFLW clash at Casey between the Crows and the Dee's???

Fake Tom Browne account strike again I see.

@TomBrowwne7 is the fake one

 

[crow2crow]

They weren’t sold out???

my understanding is they are sold out. it was a joke

 

[crow2crow]

Was he living in a brothel?

whats wrong with that?

 

[ams4crows]

I dont know about you guys, but the fact that an employer is leaking stuff to tom ******* morris of all people about an employees mental health to make man kick ball better, to let morris churn content, is feeling vile & gross
