Severance package?

Uh huh. I assume that means he pays us so he can break the contract. I'd bloody well hope so anyway.

I doubt it, I think it means he's liable to stay on the list and earn his keep but would hypothetically take a lump sum of lesser value and free up his list spot.

Discussion about him as a player is all well and good, but the constant rumours and assumptions about his personal life are nothing but harmful.

Go watch Days Of Our Lives if that's what you want.

unless you disagree

He cant ne replaced till the end of season. Another argument for a mid year trade session

Yeah just what we want, our players leaving us mid year.

Mid year trades will only hurt clubs not in contention.

Trades, not free agency
 

if he feels like he is letting the club down, maybe we should terminate his contract and then offer him one on minimum dollars?

give him 3 years on a tiny wage, rookie him if we have to, and just let him get his body right for as long as it takes?

Clark played with Nathan Jones like passion. It is rare to see in the red and blue.

If Clark doesn't get back, we'll all be disappointed, but as it stands he is a MFC player - so let's get behind him.

If he does return and can play injury free, he will reward us ten fold.

I don't know why people go on about money, we've had highly paid squibs on our list for a decade now, at least Clark plays with passion and courage.

Well said: I honestly cannot believe the cr@p that some have written about him being weak and not caring. He desperately wants to play, and being unable to do so cannot help help any issues, which may well be depressive in nature.

I'm well aware of all that. But does he still WANT to play footy? Can anyone honestly answer that? We have no idea. Some transparency in that regard would be good. It would certainly make it less frustrating. And the timing is hugely frustrating. Anyone who says otherwise is lying.

P-man: as you said, we have no idea. Hopefully the announcement will be that he is progressing well, though one would have to say given all he has been through with his Lisfranc it is becoming increasingly unlikely.

I really feel like this thread should be locked, start a new thread when we get something factual to go on.

Come on Sassy - since when do facts matter in this board?


This Mitch Clark situation is a true ball breaker. Completely ignoring his personal issues because I have no idea, but from a purely selfish point of view, we can't afford to lose one of our best two or three (arguably most) best, most important and inspirational players, especially given the lack of quality and heart on our current list.

Uh huh. I assume that means he pays us so he can break the contract. I'd bloody well hope so anyway.

At least we will know one way or the other and can plan accordingly.

Heartbreaker if he's gone. Loved watching him in the red and blue.


Yes I prayer every night for a fit Mitch Clark. It would again one of the many MFC unlucky dramas if he retires.

We are cursed.

Get well soon Mitch

Why would he be meeting with MFC and together with his manager if he wanted to stay?

It ain't gunna be good news.

Dam it he's my daughters fav player too.

My Grandson was rapt to pull Mitch in the last packet of footy cards.

FM.

Mitch Clark may retire next week according to Channel 7


when was the last time an all-australian retired at the age of 26?

can't think of any precedent.

damn we're unlucky

Egan, from a similar injury.

Could this put us under the minimum salary cap?

 

I hope we dont use this cap space to pay Frawley to stay. He is a tough defender though not worth more then 600k imo. I hope we use it as a warchest on the open market

Yeah if we lose Frawley we could use that money to lure an All-Australian key defender, maybe an unrestricted free agent..... Oh wait....

  • 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.
