All about Mitch Clark

Hey everybody! olidik heard a rumour!

Great stuff.

Hey Machsy- cut your nanny schtick.
 

Stomp rambling on like the guardian of knowledge and good taste.

The whole thread is rumour and opinion .

I know you're the type to be up for crucifying a player based on unconfirmed rumour, but I'm not, not should I be.

Stop rambling like you're the guardian of what I should be the guardian of.

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.

Can we delete all other posts and leave this one in the thread?

Thanks for the info.

 

Bloody hell, would you posters just relax and stop with the stupid bickering and snide comments.

It's going to be a very long year on Demonland if this is what is happening after rd 1.

Depression can be as life threatening as cancer.

I wonder if some of the shallow thinkers on here would be as flippant if Mitch had a potentially terminal disease.

Many posts here are shameful and a sad reflection of ignorance in a broader social sense.

You have my vote Wormburner.

But good luck with your request.

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

its not,my brother told me its only in the mind

Edited by jazza

For what it's worth, I'd charaterise depression as being more like diabetes than cancer.

Needs continuous monitoring.

Everything you do has to take it into account.

Generally, you've got it for life, at least to some extent.

There's no established 'cultural practice' for family and friends to provide appropriate sympathy and support.

But

Managed well and with good information, the harm can be really effectively contained in most cases, and people can continue to live life in full.

Anyway, whatever the actual trouble for Mitch is, he is a lucky, lucky man in terms of his contract and working conditions. That doesn't mean he is doing even the slightest thing wrong by the club or the supporters. If anyone wants to be upset about it, try to keep perspective as far as recognising that ithis is a general 'AFL/sports elite distorted pay' issue, not a Mitch Clark issue.

I'd have a quiet word to your brother.

Depression may not be a physical condition in terms of a muscle tear or strain but it commonly has accompanying physical manifestations - lethargy, loss of appetite to name but two.

It is indeed a medical condition.

Edit - bad humor indeed.

never realized there were so many uneducated morons on this board until i saw this thread

Hope Mitch is doing better and will play some footy this season

definately im not.

Never trust Biff or BBO with humour advice... They're like the two guys from MASH, they think they're hilarious cos they're drunk, but everyone else is going through hell...

Just took the following fro PR story on Gawn playing this weekend

“My communication with Mitch is through text and just really a support base, and just to say ‘that I’m here for you, give me a call when you can’,” he said.

“We’re here and we’re supporting and certainly doctors are monitoring it a bit more closely. But his latest text was ‘thanks very much, the club’s been terrific’, so that’s been the extent of it at the moment.

That sounds like a long term problem to me and the eight weeks off is the start only

 

sue!

too late position has been filled by nutbean.

doctors are monitoring it a bit more closely

what does that actually mean, this is all very odd

  • 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.
