More details are emerging about a potential shock trade that could see gun midfielder Clayton Oliver leave the Melbourne Demons.
It’s taken the footy world by surprise, given Oliver is a four-time best-and-fairest winner at Melbourne, a premiership player, and signed a seven-year, $7 million contract with the Demons that hasn’t even started yet.
“The club felt he wasn’t professional enough with his rehab. The truth is probably somewhere in between depending on who you speak to, but that disconnect is real and that was has lead to the conversation being where it is at the moment.” “These list managers have been aware of the Oliver situation for a few days, and they have already gone to the players and said ‘What do you think? Can we fit Clayton Oliver in? Would you meet with him? Do you think he fits our team and culture?’”
