Irony. Give up, post in your precious other thread and bag out Mitch all you want, but it's not what this thread is for and the more you post here the more you show you incapable of understanding ANYTHING you are.

Just stop.

Yet you've once again answered him, meaning you have contributed in a manner that you don't want others to. You're no better.

Fair call. Just frustrated and disappointed. Wanted to do something for my favourite player of the last few years, and seeing it derailed by dh's got me a bit fired up. I'll do my best to not give it anymore air.

As I said late last year I reckon he has played his last game! .A physio mate of mine said then that he would find it extremely difficult to get back given the type of injury and the propensity of other soft tissue injuries impeding his rehab. I really believe has played his last game! .

How come Matthew Richardson was able to play a further 160 games following the exact injury ?

Because human beings are not all the same.

If Mitch comes fit he plays for us. If he doesnt his career is over.

We need to consider what's best for Mitch, that may be being in perth with his family, especially if as being suggested Mental illness is involved, we need to be open to the idea of facilitating a move for the well being of Mitch as a person before we consider an ideal world where Mitch is our all conquering forward

that's my opinion anyway, Mitch needs to be put first, as Roosy says the club exists for it's players.

I don't know what everyone else is think on this site but I'm starting to have a little doubt in my mind that Mitch Clark will retire at end of the season.

Not that I want him to leave, I love Mitch and his carriage attack at the ball but as a Demon support I'm always looking at the worst because that's what I'm use to.

So lets say Mitch does leave, we have $750,000 in the cap.

If we finish 2014 in good form we could actually get a big fish.

Who is free and who do we go for.

 

I'd wait and see what happens with his leave to get a better sense of where the situation is heading, he may yet come back fit and firing and play in the second half of the year.

No, that is not fair.

We should have to pay Clark out.


For what it's worth I'd want Mitch to stay and It feels wrong to speculate but is Patton out of contract at years end? Or would another mid be available?

Signed.... Ned Flanders

Oakaly dokely neighbourino!

No, that is not fair.

There might be an agreed settlement if that's the case but he couldn't expect a full pay out. He would retire a millionaire so we have done a lot for him personally if even just paying him handsomely.

But geez the dees seem to have had every issue imaginable happen to them.

Because human beings are not all the same.

I should be honoured to be so enlightened.

The AFL would not let us take a good player from GWS.


I can't understand the angst against one of our own because of the dollars he is getting paid. If it were our lowest paid player would anyone care that they have taken leave due to events out of their control?

Just passing it on FWIW...........

That would make sense. It is obviously a mental health issue or a family issue as I posted earlier. Hopefully it can be sorted out.

What do you mean "not let us." The AFL doesn't have a say.

That's how I read it too...

"MITCH Clark has been granted personal leave from the Melbourne Football Club due to health reasons.

The Club will continue to be in regular contact with Mitch throughout this period and is working closely with medical staff regarding his on-going treatment.

Some of the challenges Mitch is facing may require some time to overcome, and as a result he will be away from the Club for an extended period of time.

Football Manager Josh Mahoney said: “The Club’s main priority is to provide Mitch with the help he needs during this time. Clearly football comes last in this situation - Mitch is also overcoming a calf injury, and will continue to rehab and condition his physical injury during this period. Everyone at the Club is behind Mitch and will support him in every way possible.”

All the best Mitch. :mellow:


I wish I'd started this thread as a social experiment to see if MFC supporters on Demonland were capable of supporting one of our own in a time of need with resorting to petty arguments, rumours, and just plain insensitive dumb comments. Unfortunately it was started to simply support a fellow demon but it's been ruined by those incapable of maturity and lacking understanding.

And we wonder why our culture has been so bad.

Get over yourself stuie. You're sounding like a whining sook. What's next? Hold your breath until your face turns blue?

Of course we all want Mitch to come good and play, but you don't get to control what posters write anymore than the rest of us non-mods. Yours isn't the only point worth discussing and threads change track regularly here. It is simplistic to think the thread would not change course.

It was perhaps a good idea for him to take up photography as a hobby but perhaps he took it too seriously and became obsessed with it? I might be speaking out of line but I did think his regular posting on twitter about his photography was a bit over the top.

Surprising how many posters blame photography. If you are looking beyond injury and its effects on general well-being, family problems seem most likely.

 

It's a good point you make.

We actually have a pretty shallow injury list. It just happens to contain our 3 valuable tall forwards.

I won't factor Clark any more and look forward to Dawes and Hogan, who along with Howe, JKH, Kent and perhaps Fitzpatrick can still provide a potent forward-line.

Potent? All i'm hoping for is to see those two running around "together" for most games later in the year. If that happens we might at least be competitive with teams from around 9th to 18th at some stage.

Anything more than that would be a bonus. Had we been able to field a fit Clark, Dawes and Hogan from the get go we might have been a potent opponent.

The Dream Is Over.

What dream was that?

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
