AFL Round 6 (non MFC games)

Wouldn't wish injury on him but don't feel an ounce of sympathy for him.

Two other rumours floating around that he was abused by a Collingwood supporter who was ejected, and he got into an altercation with a Geelong official.

Seriously, WTF? I'd be sick to death of this guy if I was a Geelong supporter.

 

I understand how serious mental illness is but if these sorts of reactions come off the back of someone in the crowd saying something, he should not be playing.

You can't be an AFL footballer without a thick skin


well if you go on twitter, its not robbo syaing he has hurt his foot it was some guy tweeting Robbo, then you also read apparently a collingwood fan yelled out go back to hospital.

Look I don't stand for personal abuse like that but maybe Mitch needs to miss a few matches, if he isnt emotionally and mentally ready. CEfLHV1UkAAy8IM.jpg

Don't think we will ever really know under what circumstances Clark left Melbourne.

All I know is that when he did play for us he gave it everything.

Hope he is alright!

 

Mitch Clark was not injured last night. He had a moment and Chris Scott's handling was superb. Clark needs understanding and support. Tweet from Robbo

If that is the case I think it shows that journos are so eager for a headline that they don't care who they climb over to get it


He sounds like an absolute basket case mentally.

Seems pretty clear to me he isn't ready or in the right frame of mind to be playing AFL if one sledge can break him down like this.

nah, he probably just felt all nostalgic playing on our home ground and realising what he was missing out on

yeah, perhaps returning to football was not such a good idea

seems leaving us for a change of scene for his mental well being has not actually fixed anything.

irony is he probably would not be getting sledged as much if he had stayed at Melbourne

I hope he is ok, his is a journey, I wouldn't wish on anybody.


This latest episode is very disturbing, to see a man emotionally suffering like that is very confronting.

The AFL love sentiment. That photo of Chris Scott and Mitch is going to become part of AFL folklore.

I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing but if the idea of going to Geelong would mean that he wouldn't be in the spotlight, this current approach and management is not working. The attention is going to escalate further.

Football aside - I hope he and his family make wise choices from here.

  • Or put another way, as a footballer, he is fast becoming more defined by his mental health status than his football. In that case, its hard to see how that could possibly benefit his mental health

I heard the start of SEN and they were talking about it. They said no collingwood player sledged him, there was no fans that sledged him and dermie said he just got into the rooms shortly after the song and someone said where is Mitch and Dermie said there he is, he is standing over there with his mates laughing. But if he needs time out he should take it.

On a side note there is a video of eddie demonstrating how to kick the footy. Obviously a reference to Clokes shocking miss in the final quarter. which for a player like him he has no excuse for missing.

The crowd in Hobart is a great advertisement for why GWS is a huge mistake

It looks like those who thought Clark was faking it will have to reconsider (unless they are Republicans from Texas, in which case the recent news indicates they would believe any ridiculous conspiracy theory).

Doggies are getting love from the umps today.

Seems they can dispose of it in tackles any ol way. Saints have been done for throwing a few times.

 

Umps seem to get their favourite pets which are always looked after. Richmond, Essendon, Sydney.

NEVER us though.

9th might be a trifle ambitious for the Tigers - their next 4 ... vs Coll, @ Port, vs Ess, @ Freo.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
