Mitch Clark

And Fitzy is coming on in leaps and bounds with the opportunity. Which begs the question what will happen to Fitzy if and when Clark comes back next year. I can't see the point of having two 200cm forward/ruckmen in the same forward line. We need a short speedy forward pocket not another 200cm player. Going to be a tough call in the next two years or so.

Certainly hope Dawes produces something better than last weekend or maybe he'll be the one not to get a game once Hogan is there. There's a lot of players to fit into that forward line if Clark comes good and some are going to have to miss out. Not a bad problem to have for once.

Or maybe Hogan is the one to miss out?

Just because he's the great white hope, his form has to warrant him getting a game.

And let's face it, none of Dawes, Clark, Fitzpatrick or Hogan are going to be available at the one time as we are such an injury prone club.

I would only trade Fitz for a quality midfielder or classy goal kicking small forward

Now for some good news, according to the injury report Mitch is back Running and training with the Rehab group, and his foot is actually going quite well

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,396]

Lets hope it doesn't reoccur. Could be game over if it does.

The question is whether he is pain free after training. I am sure he won' t play again this year. No need to anyway.

Yeah, would be stupid to even consider playing him this year, infact i think they have stated that he won't regardless of what else happens, but the fact he is running again is a huge step forwards imo.

I think you're right, I don't believe he was rushed backed last time and this won't be any different.

Thanks man, you made my day.

Much appreciated.

[71 Molloy 266]

Big question is, how does this effect his photography?

Thank you Dr Al for your assesment

I think I would prefer to hear from the others who posted re Clark's injury

FMD Demonland should be renamed "for pessimists only"

Extremely unlikely.

This isn't like a hamstring tear where scar tissue can create a weakness.

Clark will be fine.

The club is just being overly cautious because of how important he is.

I hope the only 'snap' he hears from this day on, is a snap-shot

I spoke to Misso last week. He says there is no issue with the injury. He'll be 100%. The mid season problem was apparently caused by a screw moving and rubbing against a toe. This was causing too much pain to continue so it had to be removed. It wasn't actually a complication with the injury itself. Apparently he's going as expected after the surgery. They are just being conservative so he's ready to go for the pre season.

[Machsy 2,858]

Like I said, Clark will be fine.

It's normal to have a bit of pain for a good few months after having a screw removed, as bone grows where the screw was.

Kinda like mild arthritis.

But structurally the lisfranc is sound.

Just cautiously letting it heal completely and rebuilding his fitness after over a year off.

Cautious is good.

heard a whisper yesterday that Paul Roos urged David Misson to shut Clark down a few weeks ago so hes 100% ready for presesason

Make of that what you will

LOL

[Machsy 2,858]

ZOMG ROOS COMING 2 MELB LOL ROFLAW!!

Game over Clark. Hello Tom Boyd?

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Hopefully he'll be back in a flash. We need him for our development. He can't focus on the negatives and some exposure this season could do him good.

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Clark who?

Sorry, been so long I nearly forgot who he was. .

You Know Moonshadow Works at the Daily planet newspaper.

Think his last name is Kent.

I would hope that he is being handled very very carefully in his running program.

He is such a vital player to us, we can't afford any risk of aggravation.
