GOODBYE MITCH CLARK



Recommended Posts

Can I also say if you're one of those crumbs personally attacking Mitch on twitter then regardless of you opinion on this matter you should have a good hard look at yourself.

While I agree that his behaviour is enormously selfish, personally attacking someone with depression can be just the trigger the black dog needs.

If true that he is seeking to play elsewhere then he has no class, no honour, no shame!!

What a poor excuse for a human being he would be displaying !!

He owes this club big time !! And if he had any class at all it is with us he throws his efforts into !!

if that happens it's a win. I absolutely rate Clark but it is true that there is a decent chance he won't play many more games.

I dont buy this - if he is over his soft tissue injuries then there's no reason why he should be any more of a risk playing wise than anyone else with prior history of injuries.

Abusing him or name calling won't change anything.

While I feel gutted and furious that this could all turn out so badly for us as a club, I still believe that Clark deserves to be treated with respect until it is known with 100% certainty that he wants out, and why.

I understand that a doctor might tell him that returning to where his depression began might not be the best thing for him. If that's the case, what is MC meant to do? He obviously doesn't want to relaps and that is completely understandable.

However, I expect him and his management to treat us with more respect than empty statements and no follow up. And as Redleg said, I expect him to do his best to ensure we get the best deal for us.

Going to St Kilda would absolutely screw us to no end, as we have no upper hand, and will also most likely lose Pattrecca in the draft. Double blow.

I know that Scott Thompson said to Melbourne that he's open to going to either Adelaide club to ensure we got maximum compensation. I expect Clark to say the same to us.

We deserve back the same support and understanding as we've shown to Clark, who has earnt well over a million dollar for playing 12 games.

This drama isnt a reflection on the MFC, the guy is a lying headcase

Stop bad mouthing the club just because some lunatic is about to burn us like he did to Brisbane and Freo

the MFC have done everything right by him, and as GNF said, were blindsided

I agree they have acted in good faith but if they didn't include something in the payout agreement to cover themselves in this situation then absolutely it is a poor reflection on Mahoney/Jackson/whoever was involved. Edited by Dr. Gonzo

The reason given was medical. MC is scared about falling back into depression..... which is fair enough. MFC reminded him of a time when he was in a very dark place. His doctors recommended not moving back and suggest a fresh environment.

Fear can make people do things that seem irrational or selfish. I suspect MC's dramatic change of heart is more out of fear than a calculated move. Lets see how things pan out after Roosy chats to him

him.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
