Demons list boss Tim Lamb defended the club’s handling of the trade saga at a fiery and at-times-awkward press conference.
Melbourne’s never-ending year of drama left list boss Tim Lamb unsure whether the under-siege Demons remain an attractive option for prospective recruits and unable to answer key questions about their handling of the Clayton Oliver trade saga.
“This time of year, there are a lot of conversations with a lot of clubs about a lot of things. I’m not going to go into details about who was spoken about,” Lamb said.“We have a really united list management group, and any conversation that’s had with any club about a player comes back to that list management group … our position has never changed. We’ve never been trading Clayton, and we won’t be.
“I think the work we’ve done with ‘Claz’, and the work that ‘Claz’ has done himself, has been outstanding. He’s obviously had a couple of challenges over the journey he’s got himself into a really good spot, so I wouldn’t agree .”Asked whether the situation was regrettable, Lamb said: “I’d rather not be answering the question. But I don’t think regrettable.
