Mitch on Eddie's show

Recommended Posts

Just watched Mitch on Eddie's show and was very impressed with the lad and the way he spoke, mentioned how he had learnt a lot of things off voss,brown,black,scott bros,leper etc. Also showed his emotions when talking about the great man, Jimmy,(quote) "it was just his presence" when asked by ed, what was it about Jimmy?

It would seem he really loves it at the Dee's and wants to lead from the front and is relishing his role down forward. Wouldn't mind if he was made captain, reckon he could b a bit more game turning & inspiring to his team mates than our current co capt's.

Worth watching if possible people.

Ed also noticed that he started to tear up when discussing Jimmy. Even though he only met Jimmiy a couple of times, it clearly had a profound effect on him.

I know it's stating the obvious, but Clark's been worth every dollar of the investment the club made, despite the season ending injury..

Some of our players should just watch the big man in action to learn what the term 'ultra-competitive spirit' means.

If only we took Ben Hudson...

Ah yes...the day Leigh Matthews lost all credibility. Remember it well..

I watched as well and thought apart from his obvious unease at being in the spotlight he spoke very well.

He enjoys having a role up forward.

Some interesting comments on Jurrah who is obviously well liked in the club.

Clearly a recruiting success which bodes well for us going forward.

OMG - that flying leap when he lands on his head still makes me cringe. Love Mitch - he's a top bloke. Love having him at the Dees.

I'm pretty certain that I am emotionally, physically and spiritually in love with Mitch Clark.

He is the bestest thing to have happened to our club in a shitload of time.

Just please please please let his foot heal properly!

I would have him and Nathan Jones in my bed in an absolute second.

And I'm saying that as a straight man.

I'll just watch if that's all right-for god sake dont injure them.

Dare I say it... Just hoping for a ful recovery. We need this bloke, not just becuase we ween a bloody good forward ( we do ) but he brings a vigour and passion to his role that many could emulate.

Its his level of commitment and professionalism which we need to replicate through the team.

You can understand why we went hard to get him.

The recruitment of Clark was amazing for a number of reasons.

But what gives me the most confidence about it, is that clearly Neeld and co. can spot talent.

Many scoffed when we chased him, many things were said. But he has turned out exactly as Neeld and co. wanted

And this is what really intrigues me as to who is in the crosshairs currently for recruitment. That was all done on the run, this time round we have a different FD with different views and having had a good year to prepare. it bodes well ( for mine )

Well if the reports are to be believed, we offered a large contract to MacKay from the Crows.

One certainly from left field, but must fit the profile they're looking for

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
