Mitch Clark out with a foot injury ...


jumbo returns

Recommended Posts

Made it clear many times here how I feel about Clark as a player and how for a club it is important to have players that not only have scruples but also loyalty to our club.

But in saying that I would never celebrate someone's injuries.

So let me say clearly I'm definitely not celebrating.

However smiling is another matter, especially when I think about how Karma can be such a [censored] at time.

Grow some scruples and just admit your celebrating like the rest of us!! :)

The embodiment of the gentle caring souls that inhabit Demonland is certainly on show in this topic

Personally I find some of the comments pathetic, some really do need to grow up

Oh grow a humour muscle.

Humour muscle? There's a fair bit of schadenfreude on this thread, which might count for humour I suppose. And a few laughs. But there's also a few signs of unresolved resentment. And Saty did refer only to 'some' of the comments, after all. There may sometimes be reasons to worry about his sense of humour, but this ain't one.

I'm afraid it's got to the point where threads like this are simply no longer funny... they are just plain nasty. I really hope the moderators nip this one in the bud quick smart!

To the charge of schadenfreude I plead guilty.

I also plead guilty to the charge of having boasted: "I tipped this" since I remembered while talking to a Geelong supporting friend that the knock on Mitch from the time we filched him from Freo was that he was physically fragile and that Brisbane thought it unlikely he would go the distance on a long career.

To those too sensitive to engage in a smile at this time may I suggest even you will be celebrating as we overtake Geelong...hopefully in Mitch's time.

You're just upset that (a) you did not start the thread, (b) it is not actually about you and, © it is not about you.

Its time to move on ladies & gentlemen -

Im loving what Harry Lumumba is bringing to our side.

He has one of the best sets of wheels in the game today. As soon as HL grabs the ball my first thought is where is Jesse Hogan???? .... He is about to be in the play with a long kick coming from HL - Go Dees.

There's a little, but not much. There's a hell of a lot more of the 'not a leg to stand on', 'don't come running to us' type stuff, and one bore who just can't climb down off that high horse.

The moderators here have strict guidelines when it comes to personal and insulting posts... At least when it's directed at them rather than a former player battling depression

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
