The Mitch Clark Thread

[Dee Fan 3,247]

I'm stoked we got him he is just what we need in the forward line, big strong and angry.

[biggestred 4,846]

Think along the lines of West Coast, Natainui, Cox & Lynch. Howe becomes our Jack Darling while Watts & LJ get the 2nd and 3rd Tall defenders

Fair call. Adds flexibility too now that I think about it, ESP as stef can play back too.

Sounds good to me

[Redleg 40,363]

Interesting what happens to stef Martin now

Nothing. There are roles for Stef who was our most improved player this year. I would actually see if their was some interest in Spencer now from Gold Coast or even Lions and if Warnock was added plus a pick maybe we could help Josh Caddy come home to be with his ill father and play in our mid field while he was here.

I'm rapt that we got him. He'll certainly play a crucial role, I have no doubt about that.

But is he now going to be Melbourne's highest paid player?

How about we all bombard SEN with text messages the next time Denham is on ! Monday ? Tuesday ? Fairly sure the no. is 0433981116 - Can't wait for KB to open up with "And Greg , we've had quite a number of text messages from what I can only assume are Demon fans !"

[Redleg 40,363]

We were struggling to pay 92.5% of the cap for next year, let alone 100%. We would have front loaded the hell out of it. This is where such supporter events like last August help out immensely. It has allowed us to pay the maximum in the cap, and look what we have netted.

If the majority of his pay is spread over his 1st 2 years, there won't be much of a problem with retaining our kids in the future either!

Nor chasing a player from GWS.

We would need to give up a lot for Caddy. Probably both comp picks.

[Dee Fan 3,247]

Where are the Harrington / Prendergast knockers now?

Just goes to show that the vast majority have NFI when it comes to what the club is actually doing and they'd be better off putting faith in them and priaising their work rather than the constant negative drivel that gets spewed up here far too often!

This is good news but all you want to do is puff out your chest and start a [censored] fight.

.....

Easily, I would have thought, and by quite some margin.

[IWAP 170]

Liar liar, pants on fire. Did he forget about Pav.

Freo have to go into damage control - they've come out of this looking pretty stupid.

That quote is just so ambiguous. For example, are Pav, Sandilands even contracted for the next four years?

Fev: Well done @MitchClark1 great move mate. Just what the dees needed. #uptheladdertheygo

Clark: @BrendanFevola25 thanks big fella. Very excited about the opportunity. Catch up soon

[ChaserJ 4,811]

Now we have Mitch. I can see Bater being moved on by Monday's deadline. We still need to get something for him though.

Bate too Bulldogs, Hill & Pick 36 too Eagles, Koby Stevens too Demon's?

I'd take that!

Congratulations to Harrington and the team, fantastic work.

AAh Robbie F. This is exactly what the club needs to do to Fire Up all those "Passionless" supporters you keep moaning about.

Since Stynesy took over as Prez he has put a lot of pride into supporters, & there is more to come.

That old Demon has woken and is having a stretch.....

That is huge...apparently the Dockers had been in Clark's ear for months!!!!

Norm Smith will be smiling tonight.

[Demon Disciple 11,802]

That depends on if he is only including money into the cap, as he was talking about not throwing Freo's cap out of whack. Pav would be a veteran now, wouldn't he? Half doesn't count towards the cap.

[Demon Disciple 11,802]

I'm rapt that we got him. He'll certainly play a crucial role, I have no doubt about that.

One would assume so. Good thing that we got all of our important signings out of the way, coz after this, they would have wanted a shiteload too. As they say, you've gotta spend money to make money.

[beelzebub 23,242]

oh...and by the way...Thanks TOM !!!! :)

[GRUN DEE 69]

I rate Clark better than Tippett. Crows would be crazy not too trade him too the Lions for Picks 8 & 12 as rumoured.

[Kento80 83]

oh...and by the way...Thanks TOM !!!! :)

Tom who???

[Sir Why You Little 36,737]

Wiki doesn't muck around!!!!

[Supermercado 2,788]

Just glad to land a big name who we'll get six or seven years out of. If it doesn't work out at least we'll have paid the big money in the next couple of years. Excited but in true MFC fashion still anxious.

I would say that this, despite the presumed intention to play him as a forward and not in the ruck, would be the death knell for young Spencer, and Newton. Jamar, Martin, Gawn, Fitz and Mitch are surely enough.

[beelzebub 23,242]

Tom who???

correct !!!

couldnt remember his last name ..

[Gippy Dee 48]

Would be fair to say that MFC having had a big landing like this since Kelvin Templeton and Peter Moore in the early 80's?

Hard to remember us luring such a player in the past.

This is big news. And I can't wait to see Mitch in the Red & Blue!

Super Excited!

Go Dees!
