Dropped again for the 3rd or 4th time this year.

As I said last year, I would target him.

Half back or even solving our other wing issue.

With Jetta probably gone and Hibberd near the end, he could be very useful for us.

For depth?

Don't know a thing about Clark, other than I have him in my Ultimate Footy side and does nothing. 

What's the knock on him?

At the very worst. I think he is unhappy atm and a fresh start could be what he needs.

Agreed. I think he can play a bit. Might be alright on the wing.


Cat's have been playing him up forward, must not trust him defensively which is interesting

Like we played Hunt forward and plenty on here wanted him gone. He is not that dissimilar to Hunt in his playing style.

I remember when I pushed for Shai Bolton a few years ago, when he had only played a couple of games in the seniors and was playing most of the year in the VFL and the DL knock on him was we don’t need a Tiger’s seconds player. Just saying.

@Mach5 might have some insight here. The rumours going around seem to relate to his off-fiield standards/professionalism needing improvement. No idea how accurate that is.

Looked a serious talent in his debut year.

Does being played out of position contribute?

Lots of people I work with who are Geelong can’t believe he gets dropped and Zac Guthrie gets a game.

He can run fast, but I don't rate him as a footballer.   

Know the young man well. 
Great fella and could be a handy pick up if we can get. Certainly worth throwing a second round pick at.

Confidence and attitude play hand in hand. Think Choco and yze would get him humming !

It’s a dangerous thing to assume supporters of any club know what they’re talking about though. You only have to look at some of the garbage that gets posted on here.

For example, you might actually work with the Geelong equivalent of Dr.D.

What I’ve seen of the kid he shows something, I don’t watch them enough have a strong opinion either way. 
But not many down this way like Chris Scott too much.

No for mine.

Who would he replaced in our best 22, or best 30 for that matter.

Similar was said about Langdon when we were looking at him wasn't it?


I watch a bit of Geelong as my wife is a cats supporter and I think we could do worse. Would be an upgrade on our squad at the very least and wouldn't cost us much.

Not by me.

Telling anyone who would listen (few beers deep at a geelong nightspot) a few weeks ago hes already speaking to freo for 2022

perth lad, isn't he?

meanwhile, cerra wants to return to victoria?

do cats have a first rounder this year (or next?) that they could bundle with clark to get cerra?

Surely we are broke now. We have to go to the draft for the next couple of years and squirell away some money for Jacko, Rivers and Kossi. I spose we'll be a destination team for a few years but they will have to come across for peanuts.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
