All about Mitch Clark

All the Jacks
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

I heard somewhere that his missus was homesick and went back home to WA taking his child with her,hence the big dilemma in his life.

The club allowed him to go back home and sort it out.

The injuries are secondary.

Women and kid, that'll do it to ya.

Poor bloke.

 

his 'missus' and the mother of his daughter are two different people to my knowledge. So not sure how accurate that is.

Didnt MFC put one of them through a Uni course? Surely she wouldn't have finished it in 2 years

FFS - are you serious?

Now speculating based on a rumour the club assisted with his partner's education...

olidik, you're continually reaching new lows.

Calm down mate. and yes I am serious, I am pretty sure the MFC had input into his partner doing a course.

No need to get your knickers in a twist mate


If Mitch is depressed, do you really think $35k a week is making him feel better? Or do you think that the money and expectation is only making it harder for him to recover?

I swear some people don't use their brains in situations like this. A man can have all the money in the world and be unhappy.

well said.

i really would like to see this thread closed for awhile.

the suffering is alone hard enough to take,we dont need to harp on about his sickness.

just look at it this way,mitch may be back,he may not be back.

let the young man recover and get on with some sort of life,with or without money.

its no big deal, we have seen plenty of players not see out their contracts and life goes on.

if and when the time comes the so called new club manager,PJ will do what has to be done.

but i personally would love to see mitch live a forfilled life and tell everybody how great and understanding our club is.

it would be great for the players to see him walk in one day and say hello at training,im sure they would be rapt to see him recovered and happy.

our club has a contract with him and it shouldnt be broken,maybe renegotiated after a non return from mitch.{this is normal }

Unfortunately in the case of this topic, there are no known facts.


ok lets put some ill informed posts and rumours to bed. My sister happens to work for the media and has alittle (not all) knowledge of whats going on.

ok. firstly mitch is in Melbourne. he and jones even posted the other day pics of a photo session they did together that day.

Mitch daughter lives mostly with her mother in Brisbane. comes down every now and then and stays with Mitch and his now gf.

Mitch has depression from a lot of different areas that he is dealing with. ie: not seeing his daughter everyday. not playing the sport he loves for 2 years. getting over a injury and then getting a new one over and over.

Mitch is away from the club but still in contact with some players and the medical staff. he is doing his own training so we when mitch decides its time to come back (hopefully at the end of his 8 weeks off) he will be still fit and injury free. He will prob have to do acouple of weeks AFL training to get that fitness back and then a couple of games at casey to get match fitness. So in my understand and beliefs he will return to the club and he will play this year but not until the second half of the season.

Thanks Deano, finally a post explaining whats going on, how Mitch is travelling and some sort of timeframe. Much appreciated.

Pretty sure = NFI, but I heard a rumour.

It was to help her settle into Melbourne. If you want to live in a hole about it then feel free to.

Listening to Paul Roos this morning it sounds like the issue could be more medical related than mental illness, or maybe i misheard him.

you don't think mental illness is a medical condition? wow

you don't think mental illness is a medical condition? wow

I understand the difference, no need for a stupid comment, i am just saying i think the issue could be something physically wrong, rather than a mental illness like most are suggesting.

I don't think people see it as mutually exclusive issues anymore. Mental health causes physical symptoms as well.

if you meant injury related then you should have said so

I absolutely agree, but it just sounded as though the physical symptoms were the major issue, i could be totally wrong

oh shut up you know what he meant

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
