Sam Newman's comments on Mitch Clark

Sometimes the truth hurts, Newman is paid to express his opinion, whether or not it is a popular opinion. He is the main reason I watch the footy show.

Err, that's quite an admission.

Ahead of the Hawks' light training session on Saturday, Clarkson was clearly disappointed that Lake's name had been mentioned.

"They are simply allegations. There have been no investigation by either the league or Geelong - so (we're) better off leaving it at that, I reckon," he said.

Asked if he was disappointed about the allegations, he replied: "I am disappointed for Lakey. It's a bit difficult to clear your name when it has already been put out there. I know through speaking with him and other players that he said nothing of the sort.

"So, to have his name smeared by people who just alleged he had said something, it makes it more difficult.

"Anyway, there has been no investigation so we are just better off getting on to next week's game and focusing on Essendon rather than last week."

Clarkson did not wish to elaborate when asked whether he was more frustrated that Lake's name had been mentioned despite his denials or that Cats skipper Joel Selwood had confirmed on The Footy Show that Clark had been sledged, although Selwood did not say by whom.

"Let's leave it at that. We have addressed the issue," Clarkson said.

Oh dear, seems pretty obvious the smear wasn't depression related, and Chip informed his new club of what really happened when Clark was at the MFC.

Naturally Clark wants the whole situation dropped because he doesn't want an investigation where the truth comes to light and he loses what little integrity he has left.

The line starts here. No pun intended.

The thing that bothers me as a football supporter is that Brian Lake was named by Clark privately and then the incident was outed by the captain when it wasn't known what was said by anyone.

As I posted before, Lake wasn't sledging him on depression or anything like that. It was another player that took a jab at Clark for his mental fragility, but the media are intent on naming and shaming Lake and giving the impression he's lying. He's not.

Although I think he is full of shiht.

He displays the same fortitude physically and Mentally as Donald Trumps hair.

Still out in public ,but fooling nobody .

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

So he was taking mid season trips to the snow, and using a legit health condition to cover it up. Wow what scum

[SaberFang 7,141]

Universal agreement on 3AW that Mitch Clark had misheard and overreacted about the "incident" Monday. Supposedly he whinged to his manager after the match, who then went straight to the media and AFLPA to blow it up into an issue.

Way to make your new club look like idiots (especially your captain, who smeared Hawthorn's name on the Footy Show because of incorrect claims), then drag innocent players from your club's arch rival through the mud. All in one fell swoop.

And it's only round one!

It seems that wherever Mitch walks, controversy is his shadow!

Because he's an attention seeker.

Very interesting that Lake has strenuously denied Clark's claims and is purportedly deeply offended and upset by the accusations.

And, lo and behold, suddenly Geelong want the entire situation dropped and aren't pursuing it further.

Have fun with Clark at the Cattery, you flogs. This is just the beginning of his contribution to your culture!

Didnt Lake himself have depression issues?

Personally I'm in favour of elevating MC to T$ status and we never speak of the bloke again.
