Mitch Clark's 6 goals - how ... 'depressing'.

Recommended Posts

Mate, stop defending him. You know how much better our club would be with Clark Hogan & Dawes I know some of the clubs most die hard supporters, people who have been supporting the club in every way possible for a very long time, even they are dirty with Clark and feel like he has let us down.

Sure it's just a job, but when there is big money and supporters involved it is different!

sorry freo forward is matt taberner thanks for quoting me

is this rubbish your only involvement with this website or what

very passionate about telling others what to do aren't you

Since there's nothing in that post that represents telling anyone what to do, I can only surmise that you're indulging in your usual habit of sniping ... or the other equally usual one of mistaking English for some other language.

Either way, there's nothing that can be said to you that can't more usefully be addressed to a vacuum.

Reminded me of American Pie the moment I read it. Don't know why I bothered posting that....

Sorry, Bob, I cant help you either. Maybe you need to do one of those word association tests to work out how deeply that song has located itself in your psyche. Then again, maybe it would be better not to know.

I am surprised that when Melbourne released Clark from his contract they did not include a 'competitor clause' . Standard in most employment contracts. I know that things would be different in AFL and under the AFLPA"s Agreement, but given the fact that release was a separate contract to the employment contract I think the MFC could have protected itself by restricting Clark from un-retiring and moving to a rival club

In a word...unenforceable

When you go to a GP and tell them you might have depression, they ask you to fill out a questionnaire. It has a whopping 10 multi-choice questions on it. One of the questions is 'how often do you feel depressed' (I [censored] you not). So you take 3 seconds to answer the survey and guess what? you are diagnosed. It is a joke. It is about as scientific as a cave painting - and obviously it can very easily be manipulated to suit one's needs

And you suggest I agree with you ? Wow....

So that's how it works ay ?

One of my workmates made a comment about whether I was upset with Clark's performance. My observation was

A) It would be hypocritical if I was considering the circumstances of how the MFC recruited him,

B) I'd rather have Lumumba, who has an amazing record for actually getting and staying on the park and

C) HL actually offers something to the culture of the club with the way he prepares and trains. Clark brought nothing.

I am sure Clark's position at the club was untenable for whatever reason before he retired. Most likely the powers at the club fully expected that he was going to end up playing somewhere else. Overall pragmatism won out out and we managed to get a decent replacement for him in the end.

I remember Roosy said after he left that there were two sides of the story and he would leave at that..

The feeling i got was he wanted to mentioned what happened but kept his professional hat on. Something definitely wasn't right.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
