still will chuckle a bit when Bad Scott starts turning chartreuse in the coaches box next season wearing red and black, but it is probably a variety of the right move.

Honestly after watching how absolutely emotionless and almost disinterested both Woosha and Truck looked while coaching us it might actually be a nice change seeing a coach that cares. And more importantly we will get a heap of new great gifs

Do you think either of North Melbourne and/or Brisbane are looking for potential new coaches?

Coz there's ages before next season, and (god willing), the cunts are held responsible for what they did at Hawthorn there is time to have them banned before the start of next year.

North, at least, can just hire one of the unsuccessful candidates they interviewed before Clarkson. But Brisbane either have to start low key looking for a replacement, or just go with the Assistant Coach.

Outgoing Hawthorn president Jeff Kennett has criticised the three First Nations players and their partners who spoke to the media about their experiences with the AFL club.

Speaking at a Leederville Oval function in the place of Clarkson ahead of the WAFL grand final on Saturday, Hardwick said he’d reached out to his former mentor since the allegations were levelled.

“To have that accusation and alleged incidents thrown at you and then splashed across the media when you don’t have an opportunity to defend yourself is incredibly disheartening and probably a little bit distasteful.

https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/fresh-allegations-emerge-of-alastair-clarkson-s-controlling-behaviour-20220929-p5blyl.html

Whilst in now way to diminish the racist attitudes behind what they did at Hawthorn. Coz it was very very racist, ("we don't want you associating with those kind of people.). Nor to ignore the "one of the boys" defenses that are coming out.

It turns out that Clarkson wasn't just doing it to the indigenous kids. With this story alleging he tried to take Sam Mitchell's phone away from him at a time when his daughter was very sick in hospital and he needed to be in contact with his wife constantly at the time.

Whilst this is not anywhere near as bad as the poo poo that they did to the other players, and due to the intervention of an assistant coach and his wife, it all got smoothed over. It definitely shows a pattern of controlling and intentionally isolating behavior, and an attitude of "gently caress your family, gently caress your life away from this club. A game of footy is more important than your sick kids." And that it doesn't matter if you are a star of the club, or a new recruit from the country, they are still prepared to do it to you.

And as has been said earlier, this will be their defense against racism. "We are horribly abusive to all our players, not just the aboriginal ones. Sure we were more abusive to them, but look, we were also bad to our white stars. Therefore you can't punish us."

I am also surprised/saddened to see that the sponsors haven't started jumping off yet. I don't know what they could be waiting for. Who would want to be associated with Hawthorn now?

gently caress them all. Burn it to ashes an salt the ground so that nothing may grow. This includes Kennett and Hardwick and Hodge et al. What they did is indefensible.
