Season 2023 - North Melbourne

I will go a step further and say that Clakko stepping away permanently from the game would be a good thing, it is even necessary, not just for his health, but for the overall health of the game.

I can’t understand the joy at the misfortune of others.

I think he wants to sleep with Dodoro

I’ve found it difficult to watch the AFL media tonight.

They have been very supportive of Clarko, and that’s not the issue.
It the hypocrisy around what happened with Hird and that every Journo was tearing him to shreds, night after night, week after week for months and years.

They keep saying ‘Clarko hasn’t had his say’. ■■■■ me, Hird, the club, 34 players never had their say.

Well I say old chap

When someone ■■■■■ on you when you are down, quite openly, loudly and publicly

You tend to remember when it is there turn and it gives you a bit of giggle you see

It’s sad that today has been one of my best moments in footy in the last 3/4 years. But I’ll never forget the way the little smug ■■■■■■■ went at Hirdy and to see it all come 180 degrees back at him is bringing me too much joy

I’ve often thought of throwing the work computer at the wall. But not the chair. I’d want to sit and admire the computer pieces spread out on the floor.

Cornflakes was one of the only guys who didn’t kowtow to the AFL and spoke his mind. Pretty sure a lot of his media work died in the ar$e as a result.

Carey, Matthews and a host of other "straight down the line"r’s all changes their tune at one point and played along with what ever Liz told them too.

He didn’t. I recon the only other kids involved who learnt a greater lessen in integrity was Hirds.

You could argue cost benefits though.

Good thing we’re not playing this mob this week. Won’t be surprised if they beat the bin chooks

Tin foil hat theory, afl are turning the screws on north to get them to move to tassie?

Clarkson hit on the ACLA for contacting Hird and offering help, he thought it was not a good look and did not reflect the then Coaches views.

Clakko’ll be all right. Jeff 'll hire him as curator of the doll collection.

To begin your journey of understanding I humbly suggest you google the word karma.

If Sonja resigns Clarkson could be the new Chairman of the Board!

The Sonja Hood “we don’t need a plan b” is going to go down in history

So good.

I’d rather the media be hypocritical and never treat another coach like the way they did with Hird.

I think, as well as an independent 3rd party confirming allegations, you’d want documented evidence that indigenous players were separated from their partners, like, say, an email trail between the president of the club, and one of the partners, where the president doesn’t once deny that anything happened.

If this goes to court, the only way there isn’t a conviction, is if there is substantial evidence that multiple parties conspired to make up a storyline, and convinced/paid a third party to give false evidence about the made up story.
