All about Mitch Clark

We need him, he is the most important player on our list. And a match winner.

That is a very big call JVF.

If it were true how come we did not win the first six games of 2012?

He's got a body similar to Balsa Wood unfortunately, he's a day to day proposition .

Balsa wood has incredible strength to weight ratio actually. If his body was similar to balsa wood, he'd be the strongest bloke in the comp by a long way.

Edited for accuracy!

I noticed that as well.

Clark was brillant in 2012 kicking 29 goals in 10 games but we won just 2 games in that period. We actually won just as many games without him in the back half of 2012.

And last year when we kicked 12 goals in the last qtr V GWS, Clark was off the ground.

But having said that it's hard to argue that he's not the most important player at the MFC.

he should have picked the priesthood instead of entertainment

Losing the first six games of 2012 had absolutely nothing to do with Clark, I recall him in pretty much every one of those games picking the ball up from his toes at full pace and snapping goals, his set shots were a standout especially his accuracy from tough angles and he was charging into packs and sitting on blokes heads. He is vital to us. Personally I don care if he doesn't return until later in the season, as long as he is right, the boys need his fearless attitude out there.

There is nothing wrong with Clark's foot, it's his hamstrings giving him trouble due to a lack of training over a sustained period.

This is what I have heard and read too GG.

It's amazing how stories come about

Just quietly, that's a very eclectic range of interests you have in your profile...

Yes, I particularly like the Russ Meyer interest... Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is one of my favourite "trash" films along with most of John Waters' films.

Mitch Clark straightens us up, others benefit and with our mids the last 2 years it was bombed under pressure or the ball went in the opposite direction many times.

I have a very good feeling that will change..

Foot looks OK

Does this one pass the DL review?

Toady, I have no idea what to make of these pictures. In the first one that you posted, which I presumed was the "before" shot given he was wearing an old training top, Mitch has many tattoos on display, in particular one on his right quad, as well as his left forearm.

In the "after" shot, they freakishly disappeared like Marty McFly did in those photos in Back to the Future.

To top it off, it hasn't been confirmed or denied that Mitch has had his left leg amputated at the knee.

I'm bloody confused.

I find it interesting that no one from the club has publicly stated (that I can find) that Clark has had hamstring problems. It's just been referred to as a "hiccup".

Hiccups can be quite debilitating.

    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,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
