He looks like he has just had his wisdom teeth out too does he?Has some Ollie Wines about him.
Them quads tho.
Can anyone young and vibrant post video of this. I am too old, mentally infirm and busy explaining my health problems to people on trainsBegley ran in there as well. He and Clarke are seriously built for 18 yr olds.
Yeah, for me he ws the surprise packet today.
Looks to enjoy the contest and can see him one day being an accumulator!
Hands are good but boy that kicking is ugly.
Yeah watching him at VFL I was thinking he will need to be a ball magnet and improve his kicking. Will never be an elite kick.

Should debut him next week and get him to go h2h with Priddis. Would be great experience for him as Priddis is the type of player Clarke should be trying to replicate.
Clarke has had a solid start to his year averaging 21 touches with his last 3 games including 26 touches twice. He is averaging 80SC points with his lowest being 75 which shows his consistency. Kicking of course is a work in progress but couldn't be happier with his start to the year and I expect a few 30+ disposal games before the year is finished.
Come on dude its his first year lets just stay positive on him for now Kicking can be improved and he has the desire to improve himself so im sure that will work itself out.A player like Clarke is never going to have trouble finding the ball due to his great endurance, he'll always be able to get to a enough contests to be involved, so for me if he gets it 20 times, or 30 times it's completely irrelevant and probably the last thing I'd be measuring his year against. From the 5 or so games I've seen him of this year, the positives for mine would be his tank, and his work in congestion. He really has to improve that disposal though, for a fair chunk of the time it's not barely VFL standard, his disposal under no pressure at times is really concerning.

His kicking is some of the worst I have seen but Dodoro was aware of that. I'm sure they have a plan in place to exploit his other strengths he's going to need time.Come on dude its his first year lets just stay positive on him for now Kicking can be improved and he has the desire to improve himself so im sure that will work itself out.
Havnt seen him play this year but last year I wasn't too worried with it. Usually knew his limitations and didn't notice many howlers. Does his best work by hand anyway and feel he will be best suited feeding the ball out from a stoppage.Have you actually seen him play this year? I'm not sure if his kicking is something that will just 'work itself out' from what I can see it looks technically flawed.

This. Just teach him how to do it and hope his left can get up to a Matt Priddis standard.I genuinely think there is a lot of merit to the idea of having him start from scratch using his right foot over the offseason.
If a team is targeting him it would mean he is dangerous enough to have their attention, Eagles came out and said they had a plan for Daniher and where did that get them? Clarke is a smart player he will work into space that would allow him to release by hand if it comes to that.AFL teams will work him out very quickly if he is a liability in space. They will allow him that space and cover his short kicks forcing him to kick longer. They will rebound off his turnovers. By not having to follow him into space, his direct opponent will be able to outnumber us forward of the ball.
In today's game turnovers are the most deflating error and easiest way for the opposition to score while you are not set up defensively. We finally seem to have largely fixed this issue and to have a player come into your set-up without his teammates confidence that he will hit his targets is a big hurdle for Clarke to overcome.
I'm saying they wouldn't be targeting him. They'll happily allow him space and force him to kick if it's likely to result in a turnover. I really don't want to see iffy kicks in our team unless they can prove to be so elite in other aspects that you just can't ignore them. I'm hoping Clarke possesses these attributes such as excelling in clearance work but we will need a lot of patience with him because he would be a liability in our side ATM the way our gameplan is. I can't see him getting a run this year especially if we're contending for finals.If a team is targeting him it would mean he is dangerous enough to have their attention, Eagles came out and said they had a plan for Daniher and where did that get them?
