Yes as far as JT goes but Clark is a long way from playing just walking around. Hope the info is wrong as I said earlier.

We've been told that the club's approach to Clark's rehab is conservative and Mitch himself keeps tweeting that he's on track with his progress. While he was walking laps on Monday, he was also kicking the football as well (albeit with his left foot only) and there's been no evidence of any setback to his recovery routine.

I don't think he's been put on the LTI like Max Gawn so can only assume there must be some chance that by mid March, he might be taking part in some light match practice.

    Will give Chris Dawes a chance to prove he is worth the cash until Mitch returns to stomps on Skulls .

    That's rubbish. I eat a banana a day (not too ripe) and it hasn't caused me any problems. You need a balanced diet and exercise and all will be well in the world.

    On the other hand, if you want to get a job at GWS in recruiting ...

    Some one told me single malt is not good for you Redleg.

    Now I know that is absolute rubbish.

    So who knows who the nutter is who put out this malicious piece of misinformation

    Eat on to your hearts content.

    Any Footy news lately?

    Heard a rumour that Sandy Roberts is heading to Fox Footy to call the footy. That's about all I can help you with Redleg.

    Other than that its just drugs or "supplements" and ongoing investigations.

    It's a good thing Clothier finished the North and Crows investigations last year..... .

    What the AFL need to do right now is storm the Windy Hill HQ and take all there computers and files - not one month later..

    Don't forget the threatening and intimidating gathering of information. Hope they also talk to ex-sponsors and supporters in pubs.

    BTW Sandy has denied he is leaving 7 and says he has not received any offer from Fox Footy.

    Oh....well I'd don't have anything to offer other than I think the Bombers sports scientists should have supplied their players banana supplements. Orally.

    Maybe suppositories would be better.

    They are certainly concerned as it is a serious matter.

    My experience is that unless there are more than one person standing for a position then nothing much happens.

    I say that from not just attending MFC events.

    When you have two people trying to get the same spot things hot up and information and dirty linen is aired.

    Other wise they are fairly controlled events.

    Lets face it MFC members are probably the most conservative going around.

    I also think that after 48 years of mainly poor results we have a beaten dog mentality.

    A pat on the head and a request for unity be it understated or not

    and we trot off into the night hopeful but probably resigned to our fate.

    Well that is how I often feel.

    Strangely perhaps I enjoyed last night.

    One's a can of worms...about to have its lid resealed...for ever !!

    The other's definitely Pandoras Box.

    The latter makes the former look like silly little tiff !!

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
