Carlton member Rob Acquaro has accepted the apology of Melbourne wunderkind Clayton Oliver after their heated exchange at the MCG on Sunday.

Oliver, 19, fronted reporters outside the Demons' AAMI Park base on Monday afternoon to apologise for an alleged threat to kill the fan during the second quarter of the Dees' eight-point win.

Acquaro - a passionate Blues fan - said he would move on from the incident. "I accept the apology from Clayton Oliver," Acquaro told Fairfax Media.

"The most important thing here is that players have to be mindful of their words and actions as there will always be young kids sitting in the crowd."
