He has serious personal issues and a monster contract but ability and credentials wise (2x Coaches award winner, 4x B&F), Oliver is the best player to move clubs since Buddy. What is being proposed as the trade price (about pick 20 after bids) is a joke.

What annoys me most is that Jay Clark is born and bred Geelong. It's the type of clearly club biased reporting that the AFL has always had a serious problem with, it shows in every West Australian article, every Slobbo Herald Sun article, every Kane Cornes piece. Unbiased reporting would be asking why this is happening, not parroting club lines about value and treating it as a foregone conclusion.

To top it off they will do a dodgy under the table deal for Smith.

Neale not at the time of moving. Could argue the other two but on credentials at the time of moving, Oliver the most credentialed. Obvious baggage but a late first rounder? Come on

The Bombers will be pleased: Daniher family has good footy genes and he finishes his career with 96 games at the Lions, 108 at Bombers.

Living in NSW his kids would be more likely to end up at Sydney through their academies somehow
