GOODBYE MITCH CLARK

The Song Formerly Known As
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Noticed this morning a few boys posted photos of them training at a certain boxing gym and that's the same one mitch has been training at recently.. Not sure if there's anything in that. Might just be that him been a former melbourne player he was put onto someone or the clubs told him to head down there as part of there program for him

 

David king on sen just stated he believes Mitch Clark will be on an afl list next year but doesn't believe it to be the dees.

If its another Melbourne club it would be a farce.

The MFC may as well close for business if that happens.

How unfair would that be?

Afl will need to grant us McCartin and Petracca on a silver platter if this happens.

It was just his opinion based on no info. He stated why would he go back to Melb if he decided to come back as he has no obligation to do so. Just speculation on Kings behalf.

other than a moral one that is !! :unsure:

I really believe if Mitch Clark was too come back next year and he stays in Melbourne he wouldn't want to join another club. He seems like a super loyal fella and I have a feeling we may see him still next year...... that may be hope more than anything
 

Let's hope if Mitch makes the decision to come back it's after the PP has been awarded ;)

nice little slap across the chin for the AFL

oh righto, got in the car right near the end of the conversation and it sounded like he had some info

be sweet revenge :)

If Mitch ends up on another AFL list next year if he chooses to stay in the city of Melbourne, it would be an absolute sham and probably the final heart break I could take.

maybe I am too philosophical.

I support the club , I go to game, tip in money but.......

I can step back and look at the club objectively.

We have positives in Roos and PJ and what seems a stable admin and sub coaching staff.

The negative is the players - our list stinks on ice.

Looking at it objectively - there may be some attraction for players to play under Roos but there would be no doubt in anyones mind that it is a long way back for us.

Given a choice of lots of other clubs to play for - as a professional striving for success - what would your decision be.

I dont blame Clark if he went elsewhere and you cant blame Frawley for craving success and seeing it a long way off at our club.

You sure about that.

He wasn't training with the boys this morning he was just at the same gym the other morning that the current players were at this morning

I would.

yeah I know - and I don't blame those who do.

I know he will only come back if he is well enough but seriously - do you think playing for our mob the last three years would be good for your mental health ?

I know supporting it is not good for my mental health, if he went elsewhere it would only make it worse.

I would.

I agree, I would be seriously [censored] off if Mitch went to another club, we have done a lot for him in a very difficult time and make no mistake Mitch would have made a difference to our on field performance this year, I reckon with Mitch we could have 7-8 wins


Our club is now run by shrewd operators... I wouldn't be at all surprised if he has made some sort of a commitment to the club to make a comeback, however, this is being kept under wraps until the decision on our priority pick is made first.

Pick 2, pick 3, pick 4, and Clark is a MASSIVE step in another rebuild.

(Yes, I know the above situation is highly unlikely to happen... but at least we can dream. Haha)

I would.

Id find it contemptible personally. Hopefully he's make of finer stuff.

 

A question to the learned.

Hypothetically can we keep Clark on the list til Dec 5 ?

Take off your Melbourne hat for a second. After serious depression issues you have a chance to restart your career and jump on board the SS Minnow ( where you once did a 3 hour tour) or the QE2. Which one would you take.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • 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.
