GOODBYE MITCH CLARK

The Song Formerly Known As
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

First thoughts on ballbag Barrett's comments are slight anger, then I remember it is Barrett.

That conniving rat will turn a whisper into a headline to get his name out there.

He has no idea what Clark wants and if or where he'll be playing next year.

Barrett should shut his mouth out of respect for Clark and his rehabilitation process. He retired to ease the pressure of a comeback and I doubt Barrett's conjecture would help.

If Clark returns in Melbourne but not for Melbourne then something has to have happened that we're not privy to. It makes no sense otherwise - we need him as a player and he's been a clear supporter of the club during his time out. It's not money either; we would be in a good position to pay him plenty.

So either there's something we haven't been told, or Barrett is just a windbag. Both scenarios equally likely.

Me thinks its the latter
 

Calm down folks GNF has told the story as he knows it which I will take well ahead of that giant purple headed bell end.

If he goes anywhere else it might just be the final straw for me as a Melbourne supporter.

Can't keep getting punched in the guts like this.

Pretty much feel the same. It feels like we get screwed all the time by the AFL


GNF please give us one of your reassuring/calming posts... If he plays elsewhere next year I'm done

if he plays for another Vic club I would be livid. Let's see but as you say something might be up. I wonder if the pp request is somehow related. Eg look we need to be compensated for loss of player we treated well, invested heavily in, in fact our best player and one of only 2 a graders. Sort if aligns with what Evans said about extraordinary circumstances

If this is true about the club being happy to trade him I will lose whatever faith I have in this bloody club.

Get ya [censored] together MFC!
 

No person is bigger than our club, and for some to suggest they would walk away if Mitch didn't return is ridiculous to say the least.

Club might think he's forked.

And if he breaks down again, then what, another meltdown?

Have you thought that maybe Mitch doesn't want to return to the MFC? Mitch owes us nothing.

Few Tanties being had in here.

I am sure Roos & PJ are well informed.

Excuse me, he was signed on a 3 year $2m plus contract.

First part of prediction looks like coming true, he will return to AFL.

Just wait for the second, who with, I still believe us.

PFFT! Is that seriously fair dinkum comment?

Please...

That's footy. Injuries and illness are common in this workplace. We've reached a settlement with the player.

I'd love him back but I can understand the reasons why it may not happen.

There is the option that Melbourne don't want him, I'd heard rumours a while ago which I dismissed (and won't repeat) but maybe the club don't want him.

you are spot on!

Why wouldn't we want him?


Why on earth would the club not want him?

Will wait til we hear something concrete but geeze, this would be a real heartbreaker.

Why wouldn't we want him?

As I said, I've heard rumours but won't repeat them which makes me sound like a [censored], I know.

However, these rumours may be complete rubbish and not true at all. Just saying that maybe the club don't want him (as crazy as it sounds).

 

We may as well give up if we think Clark might make a return and we don't want him back.

Assuming that's rubbish and we would want him back, if he decides he wants to stay in Victoria but play for someone other than us I'm not sure there could be any worse thing to happen. Could this club suffer a bigger kick in the guts?

To say Mitch owes us nothing is just rubbish as I am sure a first round pick and 2 or 3 million for 12 games has to count for something. This club needs Mitch if he is healthy and fit more then EVER

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • 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.
