Maybe I'm missing your point but Lachie Shultz says gday.
He's an a grader for sure.
Yep, he's definitely up there with Pendelbury, Fyfe, Cripps, Bont, Daicos, Toby Greene and the like.

Seriously for a second, I don't think he's even as good as Charlie Cameron/Bobby Hill. Yet.

In your opinion, bet you didn’t think that in June of this year. Changing colours doesn’t instantly make players into A Graders. He ain’t no A Grader
I don't see many freo games but he looks pretty handy to me from the games I've seen.
Time will tell I suppose.
So you don’t watch Fremantle games but you know he’s an A Grader

The Oliver rumors surrounding a bloke fighting some demons ( no pun ) aren't worth repeating.
That settles it then, your opinion is the only one thats correct.

From Carlton FC:

THE CARLTON Football Club is aware that Elijah Hollands has been served with a notice to appear in court relating to possession of an illicit substance.

The Club was notified last month by Hollands, who was a Gold Coast Suns player at the time, given its existing interest in bringing him to the football club.

An informed decision was then made to proceed with the recruitment and the Club will now provide the necessary support to Hollands.

He will commence pre-season training upon its scheduled resumption in November.

As the matter is currently before the courts, the Club will make no further comment at this time.

It's interesting that despite him being caught, it was never mentioned in the press. Till now.

Perhaps goes to show how highly the local media rate 'VFL' players.

Be careful about commenting on Oliver around here, only "facts" that have been reported in "the News" are allowed, he's never been on a bender ;)

Seems that way.
This poor culture stuff is starting to mount up.
Another video of Oliver in the media doesn't help.
