A few people on Demonland suggested trading him. :lol::)

One poster said he would trade him for Gumbleton!

Although I still have question marks on him it was obvious he was playing injured during the second half of last season. His great leap totally disappeared and he could never get off the ground in marking contests. Still he played reasonably well. He also needs the right people to get into his ears.

Agree with this and despite this still contributed his average and topped the goalkicking. At times second guessed, but so did many members of the team in uncertain times. I think keeping it simple and with a different structure may pay dividends and make his star shine brighter.

Good memory. Range Rover if memory serves correct.

 

I think we need to keep things in perspective re the impact that Clark is going to have on the team. Not so much in terms of structure but the flow on effects it wil have on the performance of other players. LJ's work ethic must improve in 2012 of his own merits. At the end of the day his consistency of performance in 2011 was sub-par.

More games under the belt next season with the plan to have him really hitting his strides in 2013. He has the talent, and the engine, to be an A grader.

Name and shame. :)

Utter shame. Fumbleton? Really?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
