Think Burt said that.

Good one Essendon, now look what you’ve done.

Thanks for clarifying. I knew someone said it. I wonder who he was referring to?

Burt said one was a Māori, he cloud have been referring to a partner of a player.

Would be hilarious if he said it about someone who wasn’t YET taking action against him, because they hadn’t been told the names.

“Hey everyone, I did much worse to someone other than these four!”

wasn’t there an article a while back from their lawyer saying that the afl hadn’t reached out to offer help and support to the people who raised these accusations ?

theres a few other fibs in there on the surface as well at a glance.

This actually would not surprise.

There were 3 other families - I think? - that haven’t gone in on the HRC action.

Question is, with the last attempt to sweep it under the carpet, did they fail to use the gold standard Ben Cousins Perpetual Broom ™?

Burt. It’s like he’s courting “anguish”;

"All four former players have spent time in my house, with my family as part of the club’s method of helping each to resolve their issues. Their time at Hawthorn was maximised because of the on and off-field support offered to each.

"If the outcome of this ‘imperfect resolution’ appeases the complainants, then I wish them well. Unfortunately, this outcome has done little to diminish the anguish and hurt experienced by my family throughout this ordeal and most likely well into the future.

“Few people would appreciate the path Alastair, Chris and I have walked for the past eight months under the weight of these grave and false allegations. I am glad that the allegations have finally been dismissed by the AFL and the independent panel and look forward to the opportunity to reveal the truth in any further proceedings.”

Diddums.

This isn’t exactly working out the way the AFL thought it would, huh.

Go have a chat with Hirdy and Tania Mr Burt, and get some perspective.

8 months is a spit in the ocean compared to 2/3 years of hounding by the media and the public.

Any media hang out on your lawns ? No, didn’t think so.

Grave and false allegations? Well clearly not, and as such, the 3 hawk officials have flat out lied and tried to bully the complainants into dropping everything. To Clarko, Burt and Fages - no one believes you! The narrative this week by the media trying to protect the boys club moaning about a leaked document was absolutely sickening and a complete disgrace! - as we all had to feel sorry for the perpetrators as their lives had become a little tough. Well how about the victims?

But, but, but… Clarko, Fages and Burt didn’t get to tell their story?? Please! They denied everything! That was their story. I seriously hope they all get what coming to them and the AFL gets slam dunked as well.

That is a smoking gun if i ever saw one. Feels like its going to drag out in the courts for years. I cannot see Clarko and Fagan surviving this.
