The Song Formerly Known As
in Melbourne Demons

ok now is time to panic

He has retired from footy so I'm not surprised.

If he was thinking of coming back to Melbourne then I doubt he would have removed it.

Or I'm just reading too much into it. Probably just reading too much into it.

He wants a new number - new start new number. He can have whatever number he wants!

He's gone, FCS can't we all admit it already?
 

#54 would allow him to fly in under the radar - 'who is that 54, he looks like he can play a bit'

You can't understand the speculation ? - he has tweeted he is training albeit by himself.

There is speculation ( unsubstantiated) both from a reliable source on DL and plenty in the media that he is training and will decide end October if he wants to have another crack.

It may all amount to nothing but I would hardly suggest that the door is closed.
 

people who keep saying hes retired, its reported hes in training and will meet with his manager about a possible comeback

the door is wide open

So what he's training, my wife's "training"....to keep fit.

As for the reliable source, i won't say one way or the other if I believe it. Even if Clark says he wants to play next year, translating that desire into actually running out again on the G and not suffering another heartbreaking pre-season in the rehab group remains to be seen.

My money is that this optimism/hope will amount to nothing.

You are probably right but you are asking posters to dismiss something that is not out of the realms. It is being fanned by posters, media and the man himself by posting that he is training

I'm a jaded pessimistic demon fan Nutbean, what can I say?

Meh... you are talking to the President of that club.

I think carrying the number 11 on his back was a really heavy burden for Clark and made his inability to get on the field that much harder for him to deal with.

He was very effected by Jim's passing, and obviously felt a huge sense of responsibility to represent that jumper.

It wouldn't surprise me, on the slim chance that he returns, that he chooses a different jumper number.

It's a small thing, but it might ease a lot of unnecessary anxiety.

He can have any number he wants FFS. JUST COME BACK MITCH!!


Mitch was meeting his manager today.

The #11 should be retired forever.

Wonder if there's a similar argument for Grimes. Has regressed since taking Barrassi's 31 (on Neeld's advice...another Neeld pearl of wisdom).

Struggling to move on?

Should of kept his No. 16

Agreed. Another dumb-arse Schwab idea. Surprised you let that one slip through to the 'keeper WYL

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
