It's not, it's fresh and hot off the press. Even @emmasq is onto it.

Heard rumours that Melbourne was upping their offer substantially but no details.

Will be interesting to see what comes out of this....if its true.

Wonder what grandma thinks?

Staying next door to Freo chairman Steve Harris on Rotto and told him Clark had joined Melbourne. His response -"no surprise" #afl

 

[thoselionslads]

So this means Clark agreed to going to Melbourne yeah?

Please don't trade 8 and 12 for Tippett, please don't trade 8 and 12 for Tippett, please don't trade 8 and 12 for Tippett

You know it's coming. If not both, it would have to be a player like Polec.

Melbourne FC reported he signed a four year deal more details tomorrow

 

[freocuz]

MELBOURNE has convinced Mitch Clark to join the Demons ahead of Fremantle, in a dramatic twist to trade week that will see Brisbane collect pick 12 in the national draft.

The Demons made an improved pitch late yesterday, and Clark informed the club of his decision late last night.

After the Lions yesterday began inching closer to a deal with Fremantle for the 23-year-old, who rejected the Demons' initial advances on Friday, Melbourne responded by making another strong pitch, upping an already significant four-year offer.

 

[ZoBlitz]

Unbelievable.

 

[Defacto]

saints now have a huge chance to make some trades happen with freo

 

[.Shotties.]

Cheers boys, good doing business with you.

You're welcome. No 3,000 posts of "we'll pick him up for free in the PSD" from the red and the blue. All class.

 

[GabbaGirl]

Thank goodness that's over!

 

[Bucking Beads]

Yep the Lions are pushovers in trade week.... Glad Clark has gone to the Demons, they need a big body up forward. Pick 12 will do the job now hopefully we can use that to land Tippett. I hope we still take Lisle with pick 34 he will develop into a handy swingman.

 

[jackess]

Looks like Freo will be stuck with the Mayne/Anthony combo as their key forwards next season.
