All about Mitch Clark


All the Jacks

Recommended Posts

Nothing to do with the thread nutbean but doing this always amuses me.

Why is it that we all do this?

We know we are going to disrespect the person so we put those three words first and then do exactly that "disrespect" them.

But then we feel ok because we put in the disclaimer.

I guess by now I should not be surprised at the human condition but I am.

I put that in for a good reason - "With all due respect, I don't want to upset you however, Don't take this wrong way but, No offense but" are phrases I seldom use but when I do see post 896

Anyone thinking his mental demons may/ought be fixable short term may be disappointed

You can't assume a time frame for a problem you're also assuming, and then say it's a certainty.

the certainty I claim is there is no time frame...thats the point...well missed

many seem to think itll all but clear up in a few weeks. Im saying its highly unlikely.

What we are being told is the sanitized for domestic consumption version of everything

That hes had to step aside should surely point to it being more than just having a bad day or two. Hes has some serious issues, the least of which I would think now is his actual physical fitness. That he cant get it right has caused it seems something far more insidious.

His wellness in this instance wont happen overnight....far from it.

He has to first get his head in the right space, he has to then get his body in the right shape , he then has to get it up to speed ( whilst keeping head in right space ) and then if he makes it this far has to get match fit

hes going home....that in itself speaks to how deep it all runs.

...

I have been accused of sitting on the fence and happily accept that because if I don't know something I won't make a wild pronouncement either way.

What are you doing on this forum with an attitude like that?! :unsure:

If I recall people hear didn't have the sympathy when Fev broke down maybe someone should reopen that thread?

I think alot of people had sympathy for Fev's overall wellbeing, but not for the fact that he generally behaved like a [censored].

Mitch has been doing all the right things, indicated by him being voted into the LG, but by the sounds of it may have put too much pressure on himself to get right for round 1. Hopefully reducing that pressure and simply focussing on his rehab will help him get right and available to play in the first half of the season.

just for the benefitt of stuie

There is no time frame, DOES NOT mean it will be fixed quickly.. That scenario vanishes the second he has to take a leave of absence or has the gravity of this escaped you ?

No time frame means...it could be a month, could be two could be the season could be .....whatever

but it certainly wont be short term as in days or weeks which is whats really required to get his back playing this season with any effect

How can I determine that...I havent..He has...hes GOING HOME

Incorrect. No time frame means it could be any time. It's a simple concept.

in this context it doesnt

you might struggle with context I grant

Can you honestly suggest he'll be back training in a month ? just asking

No time frame means there's no time frame.

You can't say "there's no time frame, but it will be ages", it's an oxymoronic sentence.

The whole point is NO ONE knows when he'll be back, least of all you.

I did. I said no one knows. How are you still not getting that?

Well Im telling you someone does...and he wears number 11 and hes heading back home to "think about things"

You dont want to admit the bleeding obvious

Just had grimes on sen and he spoke about MC and how hard it is to c a team mate having issues without being able to do much for him.

He said how respectful everyone has been about his situation and also how respectful the media have been to.

Maybe some on here could follow suit.

Look forward to seeing MC back in the red and blue soon.

Do you know Mitch personally? One of his best mates are you? No. You don't. You know NOTHING.

Mitch wouldn't even know how long at this stage, hence having a think about things, so you have no idea, like the rest of us, that's why there's NO TIME FRAME.

well we do know he is on the lti so there's 8 weeks min

here we go.... good point

may I ask learned self how yo might then extrapolate that out as to when you might expect him to be back on the track ( at least ) ? Just asking as I suspect some reasoned answer form your good self

Also 8 weeks goes exactly to my point that its not a short term fix.

    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
