GOODBYE MITCH CLARK

The Song Formerly Known As
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Ummm how about letting the supporters know what's going on.

That's what the club will do, an unsubstantiated rumour tells us nothing and just causes more angst.

 

too late nut, he's already been blamed for all things past, present and future

Perhaps we can blame Mitch Clark for Jack Watts? :)
 

Do you not think the club has the right to tell its own story, once everything has played out? Which it clearly hasn't by the way, given that the stories in the media are conflicting.

Anyway, glad GNF's post made you feel better :)

How many times over the years has the club treated it's supporters with contempt and not bothered enlightening us with any details or just giving us spin? I dont see any reason why someone shouldn't post info on here unless they are betraying personal confidences by doing so.

They can post all they like, that so many take it as the truth of the matter probably says more about group mentality than anything else.

Back to work for me, I'm sure there will be a few more pages to look at in another couple of hours.


If Clark says he'd love to stay at Melbourne but then doesn't, it means one of two things:

1. He's lying to the public to protect his reputation

2. Melbourne / Roos don't want him. Which begs the question why??

IF case 1 his reputation will be totally stuffed - he would be remembered as nothing more than a mercenary who totally screwed a struggling club that stood steadfastly by him in his darkest hours.

I think / hope he is bigger and better than that.

mentally soft, history of burning clubs, severe foot injury, has played 15 games in 3 years

How many reasons do you want

So you'd rather pick 18 from Hawthorn than risk getting back our best player?

Have you seen our goal kicking ability lately?

Unless Roos knows we can get something seriously great for him, or he has put a very high price on his head (in which case how can Hawthorn afford him?), it really makes no sense.

Anyone know of a way to watch 360 over the net?

Bump...personally, I think he is Gawny
 

"Around 100%" is probably somewhere less than 100% - that is exactly my point. If it were me, I would not post something that was going to cause a riot among MFC fans unless I was willing to put my name and my sources name to it. Without that, I just don't see how you could treat it as anything less than another hypothetical.

I'm clearly on my own (or in a very small crowd), so I won't carry on about it any further.

Surely what he wrote wasnt much if a surprise anyway - can you put 2 & 2 together and figure out what's going on?


Gunston for Clark anyone?? Haha I jest to all those who might think im serious..

It sounds to me like mfc will get first crack at Mitch it he is 100% on coming back

We need a ruckman with Jamar nearly finished & Mitch could be a great replacement. Roosy needs to keep that in mind before trading him.

Hawks wont give us there 1st rounder.

Personally I'd demand Sheils for Clark.


I know for a fact, 100%, that the club have people that read this website. Information leaked by a viable source from inside the club and then being posted on this site may happen once, but there is very little chance that it would be allowed to happen again.

That is not such a bad deal IMO.

Gunston is a goer vs a bloke with a serious foot injury and serious mental problems that may not play again.

I would take it.

Guns ton is a goer vs a bloke with a serious foot injury and serious mental problems that may not play again.

I would take it.

And why would Hawthorn?

That was Alex Sakadjian that Mitch was training with on the news. He is the MFC sport science coordinator. They have been working on a Misson program since Mitch was back in training.

unfortunately hawthorn would have to employ Neeld to do that trade..

Guess I must be the only one who is skeptical when someone says "I talked to my guy at the club and...." in an anonymous setting. I've only read it on Demonland a thousand times before. Maybe if I knew who his contacts were and, indeed, who he was.

I've no doubt GNF does know someone at the club (I don't think he's making it all up), but I simply cannot, ever, count on a poster I don't know as delivering 100% gospel. He deals in rumours, not facts, in my eyes. And I still question his motives.

Carry on.

Love your work Nasher, but running a football forum then asking why someone would post inside info on it is a bit confusing in itself. Why exactly are you running Demonland if not for people to discuss things like this, whether fact or fiction?

And they don't and they won't

It's the reaction to posters treating the post as gospel, not the post.

1. He's lying to the public to protect his reputation

2. Melbourne / Roos don't want him. Which begs the question why??

2. Simply because if Clark doesn't want to play for the MFC then why play him? If you really want to leave then its in the best interest of both club and player, especially if its an early contract release. That goes for any player. Whilst I will be criticized for this, I truly believe the MFC are better off without Mitch. Midfield is a more pressing for the club. Anyway just my opinion

  • 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.
