Meh. I dont believe it was his choice to leave us. We were lucky we got decent compensation.

I wonder if we will ever hear the true story.

We didn't actually get "compensation"! We were just fortunate that our FD retained him on our list until 31 October, ensuring that the only way that he was going to end up at a Club of his choice was through a trade. An astute move by the MFC!

    Clark, if fit, is the best full forward in the comp IMO - he is simply an absolute gun.

    Lance Franklin goes alright.

    Roughead, Hawkins, Walker, Schulz..

    Clark kicks two in a row.

    "Great story"

    Someone pass the bucket.

    On the Foxtel news site, Clark was apparently capable of "amassing two goals and nine touches in approximately three quarters of football." The story gets greater and greater.

    Not sure if there is a dedicated thread already.

    Watched the Bris vs St K game and while there were a lot of basic rusty errors, I've got to say that I like the look of Brisbane. The inclusion of Beams and Christensen will be a big plus. McCartin led well and looks smooth.

    Any thoughts on the other matches?

    lots of errors in all games I thought

    I have to admit after all the injuries so far, I'm scared to watch our match on Thursday. I've got Foxtel and have already set it to record the game, but I don't think I can handle watching it live.

    Mitch gave off a couple of very quick handballs which resulted in goals.

    I thought he moved well, and seemed to work well with Hawkins....they didn't fly for marks together.

    Nauseating.

    Meanwhile I enjoyed seeing Frawley concede a goal due to a judgment error, just like he did once or twice week with us.

    He didn't seem to do much else, though I didn't see the whole game.

    I think he'll struggle to get a game at Hawthorn this season, but perhaps they've got 2016 in mind, when Lake will probably be gone.He might not make the grade.

    The first was an absolute gimme

    The second was the only decent thing he did for the day I gather

    No..He looked like a player who hadn't had played a game for two years but one thing was apparent. He knows how to make space, how to lead up and when to drop back and how to be in the game - he got clear repeatedly - it was his hands that were rusty and let him down - dropped some gimmes and fumbled.

    To me, the only thing stopping him being a very good pick up for Geelong is his history of his body letting him down.

    On Frawley - injuries aside - he will play every game this year

    I agree during play, but between I thought he had a slight limp on several occasions.

    I thought he was moving very freely (just not match fit yet)... perhaps yours was a case of "wishful viewing" MD? ;-)

    Was it just me or did Bonti look about twice the size of last year? I hardly recognised him. Going to be a star that kid.

    North: absolute flogs and absolute pretenders.

    And winners over a pretty much full strength Hawks.

    They won? Hmm. Meaningless I suppose. Would be delicious to see Hawthorn fall apart this year when everyone expects a threepeat.

    Oh we can only hope. A few injuries would help but apparently they are at full strength even with 10 or more players on the wrong side of 30! How do they do it?

    Clark just kicked his third goal with 6 minutes to go in the first quarter!!

    Clark looks in amazing touch, if he stays fit he will absolutely kill it this year.......still a dog though.

  • Quote

    I am extremely confident he will burn the Cats too, so not too worried.

  • Quote

    Would love to know the real story on Clark

    I bet it doesn't have a lot to do with Black Dogs

    Recovery does not happen in 6 months...

    well, we all knew he had talent but he still needs to stay injury-free and fit

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
