Schwarz: Clark better than Scully
By Mark Stevens and Jay Clark

MELBOURNE great David Schwarz has rated boom recruit Mitch Clark more valuable to the club than departed Tom Scully. Schwarz said Clark would have an immediate impact as a key forward and ruck back-up. And his signing proved the Demons were no longer push-overs, he said. "If I had to make my mind up at the moment, I know who I would be taking ... it would be Mitch Clark," Schwarz said, comparing the former Lion with Scully. "We're screaming out for a tall who can play ruck and play forward. "Even though Scully, long-term, is going to be a gem, I reckon Mitch Clark for the next four or five years is going to be more important than an in-and-under midfielder."
