GOODBYE MITCH CLARK



Recommended Posts

Posted

Guess I must be the only one who is skeptical when someone says "I talked to my guy at the club and...." in an anonymous setting. I've only read it on Demonland a thousand times before. Maybe if I knew who his contacts were and, indeed, who he was.

I've no doubt GNF does know someone at the club (I don't think he's making it all up), but I simply cannot, ever, count on a poster I don't know as delivering 100% gospel. He deals in rumours, not facts, in my eyes. And I still question his motives.

Carry on.

At which point the site will go into meltdown and the mods won't have to shut it down to enforce a cooling-off period on us. :o

This site has survived:

1. Woey's trading

2. Scott Thompson's depature

3. Liam Jurrah

4. Jim Stynes' death

5. Schwab/Neeld/Bailey

6. Jesse Hogan

7. Viney F/S draft day

8. Numerous other draft days

9. Tom Scumbag Scully

10. Approx. 987 Jack Watts threads

It'll survive this too.

I think we all struggled.

Pretty sure many people were drunk posting.

Typing that list came way too easily and has depressed me beyond belief.

@mitchjclark talks about hit fitness, and plans to talk to @melbournefc first, says he loves the demons! @7NewsMelbourne @Talking_Footy7

I love you, I just can't be with you anymore.

That's showing my age.

We are definitely a bunch of survivors here at the MFC. Made of tough stuff. The staff that I work with jump on and off the bandwagon of which ever club they support depending on how well they are positioned on the ladder. They all smirk as I religiously tip Melbourne each week, sign up immediately for my new membership and still have the MFC ring tone on my phone.

I am as gutted as the next person if all of these MC rumours are true. I will be sulky and cranky but quickly move on (I think so anyway....). There will be another MC in the wings somewhere waiting to get drafted by us.

I wasn't. Surely he knew the supporter base would go in to meltdown.

Let the club and Mitch tell their own story. If you have "inside info", keep it to yourself. He does not have the right to tell the club's point of view.

You tell me - what good has come from GNF's post?

Really Nasher? Come on mate, GNF's posts are some of the best things to come out of this site.

I would rather him exercise the right to pass on what intel he knows (~100% factual) as opposed to reading peoples hypotheticals.

The problems it's caused today lay with those that are too immature to think before they write. Not GFN.

"Around 100%" is probably somewhere less than 100% - that is exactly my point. If it were me, I would not post something that was going to cause a riot among MFC fans unless I was willing to put my name and my sources name to it. Without that, I just don't see how you could treat it as anything less than another hypothetical.

I'm clearly on my own (or in a very small crowd), so I won't carry on about it any further.

This saga is immersed in a pool of horse [censored]. This blokes a Gen Y chasing the bucks and im sick of these pre madonnas (him and maybe lamumba, labamba WTF he is) It stinks!

Do you mean prima donna?

I think he meant anyone that came before Madonna.

Maybe, had the injury and the depression not stolen him from us, he could have become our Marradonna ?? The first ie= prime maradonna?

The post by gnf has been screen shotted and posted on a facbook rumour page haha

GNF has great sources but his sources may not be fully informed of Mitch's intentions - Mitch or his agent are not his sources...

I can see the darkness coming but I won't react until it comes and a few hours later the sun will come up and we will move on again.

Never a more resilient club was born on this green earth.

Would be nice to get a few things going for us however...

I'll wait for the official word before jumping in, but I'm hoping it's not another kick in the nuts.

It seems like this clubs lot in life: 'So you thought something good was going to happen? Here, have another kick in the nuts. That will teach you to hope'

Dermott Brereton - "Having depression doesn't exonerate you from doing right or wrong"

I don't often agree with Dermie, but he is spot on there.

So true -- so rarely a good news story.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
