Mitch on Eddie's show

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

Didn't I read somewhere on here yesterday that MacKay has just re-signed with the Crows?

Thanks for posting the clip, 3183.

I like the maturity of mind that Mitch has. He's sure of himself, modest and driven to achieve.

Liked that he talked about how having a child at the age of 20 taught him to grow up and put himself number 2, gave him a strong reason to succeed.

Perhaps a lot of others on our list should also procreate, if this is the result. In which case, stay away from The Song Formally Known As.

It is funny though, how someone with undoubted talent can just warm to his new role and life, have a bit of confidence (probably talked up by Neeld and co.) and just be the force he has been.

From the 10th best player at the Lions to numero uno (with apologies to Jones) at the Dees.

I think what happens here is someone like Clark sees a kindred spirit in Neeld. add 1 + 1 and you get 3's value i.e the knock of synergy.

this is what we need to get across the raft of players coming in ( and build in those there) . All pulling in the same direction

Mitch Clark was one of the most talented u-18 players in his year. Dominated WA juniors and against other state sides. Has dominated in his short time at Melbourne. What does that say about his intermission in Brisbane??

Yes that's correct, I'm just saying that he was a bit of a left field suggestion, so clearly they have a type of player in mind

Disappointed we didn't get McKay. He's an excellent player and exactly the type of attacking mid that we need. Still, it suggests to me that they have the right type of player identified and will be bold in chasing them. Good stuff.

I'll reiterate that I won't judge Neeld until he has had sufficient time to build the team he wants (rather than the one he inherited). The discarding of Maloney says a lot about his ruthless vision.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
