GOODBYE MITCH CLARK

The Song Formerly Known As
in Melbourne Demons

Travis obviously has a doppelganger who everyone seems to be confusing for the guy that actually plays footy :rolleyes:

GNF - when you say something like that it makes me very very very nervous...

...please tell, what is the cause of your nausea?

Just the Clark dog act.

 

From the FB news item:

Lynden Jerkle Dunn: Some of the comments on here are sickening! It is disappointing that Mitch will be pursuing his AFL career at another club and yes I too am a little disgruntled at the decision. In saying that, I wouldn't wish what happened to Mitch and happens to so many others day in and day out upon anybody. I'm so glad he is well enough to try and pursue his dream of playing footy at the elite level and I will always think of him as a mate. Some comments especially from some demon faithful are distasteful and cowardly but I suppose so long as the few "Keyboard Warriors" have there say and hide behind there screens then life will go on. All the best brother!

Not sure how I feel about this..


26 isn't bad for a guy with a bit of toe.

I think he had injury problems this year and wasn't quite right, but his best is very good.

26 is a lot younger than I was thinking, he could be around for a few years... This could be a good trade for us...

No mate!

Absolutely my favourite time of the year. No actual games to destroy our moods.

Have no interest in posting for 11 months of the year any more - just October.

Guess that makes me the new Nudge

Who was the journo you sucked in with the Morton stuff a couple of years ago?
 

When was the last time ANY MFC player did that......

When was the last time we wanted one too...lol..

I've held my tongue up until it was official that b itch Clark wanted out. Chomping at the bit for dees vs traitor fc already


Too old: Bartel, Enright, Mackie, Kelly, Rivers, Lonergan, SJ, McIntosh, Stokes

Too good: Taylor, Hawkins, Selwood, Motlop, Christensen, Caddy, Duncan, Guthrie

Too injured: Cowan, Menzel, Vardy

Too drunk: Dawson Simpson

Too delisted: Sheringham, Burbury, Stringer, Schroder

Too young and important: J. Kolodjashnij, Lang, Hartman, Jansen, Thurlow, Hambling. Blicavs

Probably Available: Mitch Brown, Varcoe, Smedts, T Hunt

Possibles: Murdoch, Horlin-Smith, Walker, Bews, McCarthy

Blicavs is the player I would be going for. He is a lot like Jimmy Stynes, but will only be really valuable if played in the ruck. (And yes I watched the North final where he was killed by Goldstein but I think he will improve.)

I would offer up Clark and a downgrade in our second rounder. Or Blicavs and Varcoe/Walker for Clark and #23.

i would love Clark to be forced to read this entire thread at gunpoint, to gain a full-bodied appreciation of precisely what a dog about 40,000 people think he is

Clark offers heaps to Geelong.

A forward line of Hawkins and Clark would be unstoppable.

Someone here said that Clark, when firing, can literally 'rag doll' opposition defences.

This is the best description I've heard. It's spot on.

Clark leaving us is hard to take. He is a seriously good player.

And the trade we negotiate must reflect this.

So [censored] off at this guy and the AFL for running this inequitable competition of 6 teams.

Another absolute heartache in a long list of disappointments and bitter letdowns that is the life of a Melbourne supporter.


Love the talk about how we shouldn't take players just because they aren't in Geelong's best 22.

Newsflash, people. We aren't Geelong.

News flash, Clark will be comfortably in their 22, so we should expect compensation that is also comfortably in their 22.

Exactly.

This is the first we've heard of a Melbourne player speaking honestly about the situation and responding to the thoughts of the Melbourne fans. It's actually really good to hear from a long time Dees player, especially one that at times has copped ridicule from the supporters (and I regret to say myself included).

This reminds us that we are looking at this from the outside in, with probably 10% of the information. At the end of the day those two have gone out on the field, and bruised and bled together, that sort of a mateship can't be under estimated. His comment of him being disgruntled also points that the players too feel frustrated by this, but he's not letting that emotion get the better of him. I agree with Dunny that some of the comments made about him are disgusting and likely so far off the mark it's not funny.

I don't know if I'm at a stage where I can wish Mitch all the best, but if nothing else it should be taken on board by the fans that Lynden does.

he won't be so accomodating when he is playing against Hawkins & Clark in a backline.
 

theory... we should have the balls to demand

Play hardball Dees.

The Cats have smashed us on the field, don't let them do the same off it.

My best result would be a good player plus a pick we can use to get HL.

Clark will probably get a well guarded and "claused" contract for 2y in my estimation.Clark plays a dozen games in that period before breaking down again. This is also what Geelong might be expecting. Dont' expect them to throw any babies out with the bathwater as they say..

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.
