The Mitch Clark Thread

Featured Replies

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

 

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

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 !"


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.

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.

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?


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.....

Twitter.

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

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

Norm Smith will be smiling tonight.

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.

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.

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

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

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

Tom who???


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.

 

Tom who???

correct !!!

couldnt remember his last name .. :)

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!

Gippy

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
