    Mark Neeld roughs it to secure Mitch Clark

    Mark Neeld roughs it to secure Mitch Clark

    MELBOURNE coach Mark Neeld has revealed how he was forced to stay in a $91 hotel room in Brisbane without a change of clothes, as the Demons tried to secure Mitch Clark during trade week.
    Neeld said the club made a spur of the moment decision to fly to Brisbane after hearing Fremantle might not be able to sign Clark, only to discover on arrival that almost every hotel in the city was full.

    "It was the Belgian beer festival or something," Neeld said. "I'm serious, we could not find (anything). Here we are trying to recruit a power forward and we're standing at Brisbane airport with no accommodation."

    Neeld said his party of three eventually managed to find a hotel where three of them could sleep - provided they shared one room.

    Now that's determination.

    Maybe Mitch Clark can pay them back with his 700,000 large he's getting!
    Honestly, you'd think Clark was the second coming the way some are going on

          Yep, if he thinks that's roughing it he really has no idea.

            It is time for these FIGJAMs to come on down out of their ivory towers, get themselves a taste of reality, and see how the 99.99% of us live.

              It appears that Neeld is indeed an appropriate coach for the silvertails.

                I went on a golf trip to Corowa last weekend and we stayed in a $90-per-night/3-blokes-to-a-room place and I can bloody well tell you we were roughing it big time.

                        Echuca's a suburb of Melbourne nowadays.

                            All that article taught me was that Mark Neeld is a prima-donna

                              If you look down and your drink is black, you've drinking to bourbon and therefore you are smashed.
