Im just going to say it

They guy is simply not AFL standard.

After 8 FN years the guy isnt going to get it. A more ruthless team would have delisted a spud like him years ago.

Enough is enough

Terrible call, he has showed great courage and his run is improving each week. Makes a few mistakes by foot but he's not on his own. Good performance tonight just poor conversion. Looking good for second half of the season given few injuries and better ball movement.

Thats what happens when you post in anger halfway through a game.

I still think he is VFL standard at best but he showed me up to be a fool after this post

Clarke is at the point in his career, because of perceived past history, he could play a excellent game make one mistake and people will call for his head (note even the best players make 5+ mistakes a night). Solid without being great tonight very comfortable he did his fair share tonight.

Want to blame someone for the 4 point lose blame the forwards for woefull kicking, Clarke was a big part of the late saints revival something I doubt Newenes would have been able to acomplish at this stage of his career.

Blow me.

I was wrong TONIGHT and admitted as such. No need for the smart ass remark.

The guy is not AFL standard and 1 half decent game wont change that

He was good tonight. You blokes need to take the blinkers off and stop buying into the stereotype.

If we had a few more like him tonight, we win. Simple as that.

I've never rated him on past efforts but calling what you see, his good easily outweighed his bad tonight. At times you can question his decision making but never his courage. His drive was fantastic In the last quarter.

Pretty easy Spud to work out those that have very little feel for the game. His courage has been highlighted by numerous media outlets tonight.

You are kidding aren't you? Seriously, did you watch the game? Couple of errors (one costing a goal) but apart from that was excellent. There were plenty of errors made by various players on the field today (for both teams) but the pressure on the field tonight was high.

Easy to find a scapegoat in your disappointment, but to make that scapegoat Raph is boring and predictable and shows your lack of knowledge.
