Indications that the Dees might be losing Oliver for a couple of games due to hamstring issues.

From the footage, he did that in the third quarter and played through it.
Definitley grabbed at it. Perhaps the new vernacular of Hamstring awareness applies.
Petracca on AFL 360. Doesn’t lack for confidence.
Basically said Melbourne have a great system. Only a few mechanics to sort out. Glad they’re getting the losses out of the way now.
Robbo asked how he felt about the fact that from round 11 2022 to round 11 2023, Dees are sitting 13 wins, 12 losses. “You’re a little bit. Enter than a 50/50 side”
Petracca highlighted “yeah but we were top 4 last year and current top 4 this year”.
They’ve got Carlton, Pies and then Cats after the bye.
They have a pathetic forward line for a top half team.

Petracca also said they take pride in being a “blue collar” team.
I had flashbacks

Melbourne were a red collar team back in their heyday.

Dees will be thereabouts come finals. Won’t win the GF but a team you’ll have to fight to get past on the way. Reckon they’ll just keep improving now and won’t be easy to beat at the pointy end of this season.
Average side, that forward line aint cutting it this year.

People have to remember we have the biggest victory against them this year. All the other pleb teams actually found them difficult to play against

Oliver is in hospital due to the infected blister. Doubt he plays.
Sounds similar to Hurley’s infection. I hope Oliver gets it under control very soon.

That would certainly cancel out the Jordan De Goey exclusion

He’s on an IV drip and antibiotics apparently. Hope it all improves quickly.

The infected blister is what’s been reported.
Fake Mitch Cleary tweet seems to be the source of the rumours
Yep, their midfield and backline very good. Their forward will be their downfall come finals.
