GOODBYE MITCH CLARK

Jon Ralph just said on 'Ed and Derm' that the MFC aren't happy with Clark as he said if he returns he won't come back to the MFC, but it will be a more successful club as the losses/rebuild isn't good for his mental state. Ralph then said that MFC said they would originally just delist him, to do what is best for Clark but now they will most likely play hardball and do what they can to get a trade as they feel that he has somewhat gone behind their backs slightly by wanting to play for another more successful Victorian club. This is coming from Clark's manager who Ralph said he spoke too. Again this is all Ralph's words that just occurred live to air 5 mins ago, so don't shoot me or my para-phrasing.

Mahoney's comments aren't exactly filling me with confidence that this is all hearsay gone wrong. I get the feeling we're on the verge of witnessing yet another kick in the nads for this formerly great football club.

And here I was hoping this, paired with the special assistance comments, were part of some kind of elaborate plan.

Was watching as well, basically summed up all that was said.

Stunned with what i heard Song, not happy at all

I read GNF's posts in the same way I read Nudge's. I enjoy them because they say things I like to hear and gets me pondering the possibilities, but as to actually believing them... Colour me a sceptic.

Short memory! In 2013 he stuck to his guns all year with the Paul Roos stuff. Even after the media had closed the book on Roos being open to coaching anywhere, and we had all given up. He put his balls out and was proven right. I'm normally pretty sceptical of anonymous posters with their 'inside scoops' but GNF has way more credits in the bank than others. Especially Nudge!

The way things are looking Mitch seems to be playing the system and we are being dudded big time. If so it would have to rank as one of the all time worst betrayals. Even worse than $cully.

neither. as i said, i'm happy for him to play for any club interstate but to see him taking big grabs and kicking big goals for Hawthorn, Essendon, Geelong etc. makes me feel physically sick and sad.

Have held off on this but I've been concerned for a while now that this has a bit of the Jonathan Trott's about it.

Surely, SURELY, the AFL need to step in right now and do something about this?? This is an absolutely outrageous, appalling situation.

If this is true by Ralph then Clark will be a hated player more so then Scully by alot of Melbourne supporters.

What people dont realized is the MFC also paid for his missus uni course.

Pull ya head in Clark

neither. as i said, i'm happy for him to play for any club interstate but to see him taking big grabs and kicking big goals for Hawthorn, Essendon, Geelong etc. makes me feel physically sick and sad.

I honestly think it'll break me beyond repair.

It will be the lowest, most heart breaking moment in what has already been an awful decade for this club.

Jim handed Mitch his number 11 jumper. We supported him through injuries and depression and I was so proud of the club and Clark for how the situation was handled. To have it end with him playing for another club, would be beyond comprehendible.

I mean how many more blows can we take as supporters?


Clark left Brissy a similar way .

His contract will have to be exited with all the legal stuff in order.

If it is going to make him miserable here and the rumours are true then he should go to perth.

At the moment we don't know.

Quite frankly if this is the ethos of Mitch Clark...then quite simply he can go %#@! himself...That would be the epitome of a dog act.

Thats how you repay respect and concern Mitch...is it ??????

$cully was/is a mercenary germ. . I thought , really though Mitch was a man of higher principles....apparently not.

Makes you wonder how much was just an elaborate con act ffs

edit...Id be only tooo happy to be dead wrong !!! and happily retract .....but.....

I tell you what, if that happens I'm going to get the photo of Jimmy and him blown up and take it to the game, hang it off a gap in the advertising when he plays in Melbourne.

Or hand out a large bucket of special assistance.

Let's not jump to conclusions.

At the moment Clark deserves more respect and trust than that.

If however he goes and plays for another Melbourne club, it will be the epitome of betrayal and will render him one of the most hated players in the game.

This is heart breaking that we do everything we can to help a guy while being paid A grade money that he would do this to this club

 

You'd like to think that Clark and/or his connections would get on the front-foot pronto to clarify the situation.

The way the media reporting currently reads it portrays him as lower then a snakes belly.

Let's hope perception is not reality.

If this is accurate then its very disappointing.

I don't want anyone at the club who doesn't want to be there. Definitely play hardball and get a good trade.

I am sick of players wanting to leave our club for more successful clubs,

Its time to turn this ship around.

  • 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.

    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.
