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.

  • 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.
