Comment From Guest
Having been a Dockers Fan for many years and seen every game this season it was remarkable to see the improvement...Does Ross Lyon have the magic to all that?

FremantleFC:
Not sure about magic but he is a very very good coach and leader of this club

Comment From Lara
Hi Zac :D Which game was your favourite this season?

FremantleFC:
Really enjoyed the Carlton win and the game just gone. Hard to beat a crowd like that at Patersons.

Nick@RideTheKtrain
.@clakkasclarke You v Moller 1:1 half court, who posterises who? #AskClarkey

We played about a month ago, I took the points 30-16 but the young fella tried.

John Separovich@FreoSeppo
@Fremantle_FC @clakkasclarke What skill have you improved the most this season? #AskClarkey


FremantleFC:
My contested marking has improved this year

Wal@Wal13freo
Big @clakkasclarke, with so many young Victorians at the club, are you worried that Home Sickness is a significant issue?#AskClarkey


FremantleFC:
The club provides a good environment with a strong culture, this shouldn't be a problem. I've enjoyed my time thoroughly since coming over to Perth.

Michael Lister@Lister225
@Fremantle_FC @clakkasclarke #AskClarkey What's the one part of your game you want to improve for next season? Your killing it this season!


FremantleFC:
I'd like to improve my impact up forward

Comment From JON
who has been your toughest opponent

FremantleFC:
Dean Cox is always a good challenge with his mobility and Shane Mumford.

Comment From Andy
Zac. Who's the loudest in the midfield? Do you have a favourite three to ruck too?


FremantleFC:
It's a luxury to have guys like Fyfe, Mundy, Crowley, Barlow, Hill etc all running around at my feet

Ryan Partridge@RhinoParty94
@Fremantle_FC #askclarkey do you want to play more forward or in the ruck?


FremantleFC:
I'm happy splitting my time between ruck and forward but I enjoy predominantly ruck

Comment From Hamish from bunbury
Two seasons ago, we barely knew of you, now you would be in the top 5 ruckman in todays game, has ross changed you into this superstar?

FremantleFC:
There's a lot of people at the club I could credit including Ross, Sandi, Sumich and the development staff

Comment From Di
Do you prefer Etihad or MCG?

FremantleFC:
It's always nice to play at the MCG, the home of footy, but I think I prefer Etihad for some reason.

Comment From PAUL
how many hours per week do you spend watching videos to prepare for your upcoming opponent, individually and as a team?


FremantleFC:
It changes week to week but video is a big part of our standard preview process

Comment From Ben OSlay
How tall were you are age 16?

FremantleFC:
16 was when I had a big growth spurt, I was just average height before then.


Comment From Ben Odea
How does someone go about becoming friends with Hayden Crozier?


FremantleFC:
Tweet him about Jersey Shore, he loves that show.

Joshi James McKay@jj1mac
What is like to train against guys like Sandilands and Griffin? #askclarkey

FremantleFC:
It's a big challenge every training session and it prepares me well for any opposition.


Comment From Markedw
Is there anyone in the AFL with better 'chops' than you? I say no!


FremantleFC:
I'll leave that up to you to decide. There's a bit of competition out there.


Comment From Guest
Who is the worst person to sit next to on the plan and why? Btw your the best Clarkey!

FremantleFC:
Adam McPhee used to love a chat on the plane, now Tommy Sheridan has taken that title.


Comment From Jack Leftoff
Which football player did you grow up admiring?

FremantleFC:
I was a Richmond supporter and Matthew Richardson and Chris Newman were my idols.


Comment From Andy
Do your family come to watch you play when in Melbourne?

FremantleFC:
Nearly every game, always good to see them in the rooms after the game.

I did notice it Debbie, I was impressed with the crowds noise and the atmosphere.

Comment From Damian The Snag Dinelli
What is your favourite career moment to date?

FremantleFC:
Rising Star nomination was nice but it's hard to top the feeling after a Derby win.


Comment From AK
Congrats on a great season so far.. How are the players maintaining focus with arguably our best chance at our inaugural flag?

FremantleFC:
Ross and the coaching staff keep us focused during the week and make sure our preparation for the next game never waivers.


Comment From Debbie
What's the best thing the crowd can do to help spur on the players


FremantleFC:
Make noise and get behind us to create an atmosphere that really drives us.


Comment From Jack
Who's the funniest bloke at the club?

FremantleFC:
Kepler Bradley is the club funny man but Haiden Schloithe is always good to laugh AT.


Comment From Kurt Dangles Lisani
Who is the quietest and loudest guys in the locker room?

FremantleFC:
Still trying to figure out how to shut Josh Mellington up and Stephen Hill doesn't mind keeping to himself.


Comment From Andy
Do you and the players enjoy the CHANT?


FremantleFC:
Always great when the crowd gets behind us

Comment From AK
Down by 5 in the GF. Freo take a mark inside 50 for a chance to win the flag. Who outside of Mayney would you want to take the kick?

FremantleFC:
That moment is just made for Pav but would be happy to have it in the hands of Walters, Ballaz, Hill, Johnson or a few more.


Comment From Scradda
How many meters can you actually kick the football?

FremantleFC:
55 is about my range with a nice tail wind.


Comment From Gary Ablett Jr.
What are your thoughts on Ryan Crowley's tagging role this year? has it topped last years performance that won him the Doig medal?

FremantleFC:
Hi Gary, I think Crowls is a fair but tough opponent, I think he's been fantastic this year again.


Comment From Liam Wathen
Who do you think will win the Doig Medal?

FremantleFC:
A lot of blokes have been playing good, consistent football. My tips would be Johnson, Mayne, Crowley or Fyfey.

Comment From Guest
Ross Lyon seems to have a great sense of humour is he only like that with the media ?

FremantleFC:
Depends how we play on the weekend but he generally has a good sense of humour, at the right times.


Comment From Jacob
What do you like to do on your rdo?

FremantleFC:
I'm currently undertaking a Bachelor of Sports Science degree at Murdoch University.


Comment From Harry Rocket Massey
Are nick suban and hayden ballantyne inseparable?

FremantleFC:
It depends who you ask, Ballaz loves his mate Nick but I'm not sure the love is always returned.


Comment From Liam Wathen
When will Anthony Morabito return from injury?

FremantleFC:
Mora's spending some time away but he'll be back joining us in the pre-season ready for a big 2014.


Comment From Harry Rocket Massey
#mymatenick, do you have instagram?

FremantleFC:
I do have instagram @zclakkas, I follow the #mymatenick saga very closely.

Comment From VFactor
Who do you support in the NBA?

FremantleFC:
I follow players more than teams. Kevin Garnett (Brooklyn) and Kevin Durant (Oklahoma) are my favourites.


Comment From Darren
Why do all the boys get stuck into Subes, seems a great bloke from outside the club

FremantleFC:
All in good fun, Subes loves a joke.


Comment From Tish
How do u calm yourself just before bounce down? Btw ur an amazing player Clarkey!!!!

FremantleFC:
I don't want to be calm, I listen to music pre-game to get my adrenalin pumping.


Comment From Liam Wathen
What do you think of Lachie Neale's big last couple of weeks? :)

FremantleFC:
Lachie has been great since he's come in to the side. He compliments the current on ball division.


Comment From Mace
What was it like playing against Matthew Lobbe last week?

FremantleFC:
It was my first time playing against him, I thought he was very strong and I was impressed with his 15 tackles on the weekend.


Comment From Pech
Great news about Tom Sheridan announcing 2 year extension

FremantleFC:
A great result for Tom and for the club.


Comment From Higgo
What are you getting up to for the rest of the day?

FremantleFC:
Nothing planned Higgo, just prepare for training tomorrow.

Comment From Bill
Would you like to be rested this week in preparation of finals?

FremantleFC:
No, I would prefer to keep playing. I don't like to flirt with form.


Comment From Andy
Are you looking forward to the move to Cockburn?

FremantleFC:
It's really exciting to be able to have a state of the art facility to move in to.

Thanks for all your interesting questions, it's been good fun answering them. Until next time... See you at the next home game!
