No good but stuff happens, at least we're not finals bound etc.

Important thing is to get it right.

Good opportunity for someone else to get a run.

I've done some work in the orthopaedic surgery area and I can tell you Mitch didn't snap the tendon. It's torn and will be repaired by having two screws inserted to re-align the joint to it's correct

Not if our players learn to get out of his way. He's Mitch Clark FFS, he's got this. Stay clear of him, and he'll be fine. If he misses the mark, he's more than capable of getting up and laying the

A podiatrist just rang up SEN and said the injury Clark suffered is the same as Matthew Richardson had in his career, and Richardson had a full recovery and almost came back to win the Brownlow! So

Just when things were looking up

Perhaps we are getting all the bad luck out of the way. This year is a right off anyway

As stated above it is a good opportunity to blood some youngsters

Who knows, someone may come through and surprise all

Here's hoping

Dont think it happened then remember early in the game he pulled up sore after a contest, thats probably when the tear started.

Very bad luck for Mitch was on track for AA. Hope he recovers and picks up where he left off.

This year is a test of everything and we WILL be better for it. But its just stuffed luck for Mitch...and us.

Mitch I sure is stoic about this whilst inwardly very disappointed.

Suck it in Dees... when the going gets tough .....

You can choose a victimmentality....or get over it and see it as a chance to blood others and we grow and get better.

Recover well and speedily Mitch.....thanks very much for everything so far. Youre a gem.

Feel for him. Was brave against the good sides during the tough run. If anyone deserved a couple of days out against [censored] opposition it was him. Kicks 4 in a quarter then out for the year. Sucks balls.

Bloody hell. This feels like a sick joke and I'm just waiting for someone to jump out and say "ha ha, gotya!"

Any moment now...

...

:(

I'm completely gutted. Takes all the shine off a good win. What an absolute kick in the guts for the whole club, us supporters, the playing group and Clark himself. FFS, cut us some damn slack!

As sad as I am for big Mitch the fact is we will cope with his loss. The reality is we just have too.Time for Martin to stand up and perhaps for Cook to show us what he can do. It should also be noted that two of our best quarters this year were the 2nd and 3rd quarters, both minus Mitch. Get well big fella and come back bigger and better.

A sensible post at last. Good teams regroup, initiate Plan B, and get on with it. Which I'm certain what will happen. The sky hasn't fallen, other players will get their chance, and a good player may emerge.

Good luck to Mitch, and see you next season better than ever.

As we are all gutted I decided to take a breath relax and post my logical thoughts that are full of common sense so here goes.

THIS IS ALL BLOODY SCULLY'S FAULT! If he could have gotten a bloody kick the ball wouldn't have been near mitch and he would have kicked at least 10 on the weekend and would be lining up for us next week but NO Scully is an over priced Hack!

Secondly does anyone know Mitch's blood type? I am willing to cut my foot off and donate it to Mitch and the MFC. We are boosting our footy department so if I can't send him my foot I'm sure the MFC has made some spare ones out of Pig DNA a bit like the scientist off south park did. If he can't come back with my foot or a new one i'm sure we can find other avenues at goal for the rest of the year. We will Cook something up.

Gutted. One of my hopes this season was to watch Mitch becoming an elite forward.

Hope he has a speedy recovery and is cherry ripe to go for the start of the preseason.

We can really use a good break for once.

Guess the only POSSITIVE is if Mitch can't run he will be spending many months in the gym. Hopefully come out with arms like cloke.

6 weeks minimum on crutches and in plaster before rehab. Doubt it. Lisfranc tears demand that you put no weight whatsoever on the affected foot.

He'll start day 1 of preseason I hope...

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
