100% the right move by hawthorn. I would’ve been fine with Clarkson leaving even earlier. The writing was on the wall once we starting getting rid of picks for the wingards and o’meara types.
Yes ...Ryan Burton for Chad Wingard was the worst possible trade. Clarko was doing all he could to 'top up, to win'. And we kept losing. O'Meara was already passed his best, Mitchell has recovered from his horrific break and no longer had the tank he won the Brownlow with. Nor could he kick the ball as well any longer. Bringing in Kyle Hartigan was just embarrassing. Sam Mitchell should've taken over the moment Clarko said he was done. No question.
Until Mitchell wins 1, 2, 3, 4 flags and makes 5 grand finals no sane person could possibly say it was 100% the right move. But Sam’s doing great so far.
@@shannonpincombe8485Ryan Burton is playing in the twos for Port and it’s easy to pick out Clarko’s misses in his final few years, perhaps only Chris Scott has had a better success rate trading players from other clubs. Clarkson acumen with trades literally won Hawthorn flags.
This happened three years ago. Hawthorn are going well under Sam Mitchell, North Melbourne are showing positive signs under Alastair Clarkson...so why are we still talking about it?
Okay, now wait a minute? So Clarkson, simply for sentimental reasons/loyalty, waged war against his bosses to give Burg an extra contract to guarantee he gets his 400 games. Clarkson did this at the risk (which came to fruition) of his coaching career at the football club. Then a couple of years later, he is accused of systemic abuse of same group of players? I am confused here.
You have totally missed the cause. When Hawthorn won the Grand Final in 2008.Clarkson thanked Dicker and did not mention Kennett.Next year Kennett wanted to drop Clarkson to coach Box Hill. He was stopped by Dunstall.
Clarkson leaving was the best thing they have ever done now sam mitchell as coach is doing a terrific job as a coach and has more succsess at this fantastic club 2025 and beyond.
Shame the relationship is torn, Clarkson is Hawthorn legend and every hawk fan has been blessed to see 4 flags in 8 years they should've let clarko go a bit earlier and got mitchell in earlier and it wouldn't of ended as toxic as it did
i'm loving what Frosty is doing this year. I'm happy to get Battle but I'm not sure about Barrass. Sicily moving forward means we lose his penetrating kick off half back. So who gets dropped for Battle and Barrass - Frosty and ??? Sicily goes forward for Gunston who is in ripping form again - and we've gotta squeeze Mitch Lewis back in. Nice problems to have I guess.
@@bakiunicornfrost will be 32 next year and will be more of a depth player barras and battle will allow Sicily to move forward or be a complete intercept defender and weddle will move to mid or wing Mitch Lewis has never played more than 15 games in a year and won’t be ready to play until mid season Dear just needs to put on some muscle in the off season and then I would have him ahead of Lewis anyway
Surely Battle won’t be getting $900+ next year. Solid player who seems to have the potential to be a very good player but his performances to date certainly don’t justify that size of a pay check. Maybe he would just be the beneficiary of circumstance where one club has heaps of room in its cap and the offer is driven up further by the Saints who know this and believe he wants to leave regardless…

@@jsequine927 clarkson is done, 100% right move. Don’t see north Melbourne going anywhere soon.
Clarkson started making mistakes from end of 2015 and it just got worse from there
I love the guy but am so glad Sam is there now
Looking at this RIP Sam

welll......you see, the co-media-ns, will do Anything to ruffle the feathers...pardon the punt.
its an interesting story and gives some clarity and understanding to an issue that has still been murky
Drama drama drama.
Like watching love island with AFL media.
Newscorp's finest doing their best work here lol
....push those sales, Anyway you can.

Gee you guys must be in the inner sanctum at Hawthorn. Sounds like real housewives of Beverly Hills. Get a life.
there is just, No Emoji for wankas.

Was time for Mitchell to take over. The Waingard move was and is disastrous.

This is the problem when you give journalists free speech, absolute fairy tales.
tend to agree with ya.
Yeah they just read Bigfooty and fill in the blanks
so only you want free speech?
and which parts are "fairy tales"?
should jeff kennett get more of a mention in this story ??
Yep
The wife basher?
As President he did the right thing moving Clarko on...
probably even a payrise.
Go port
They have gone!
I don't think we should pay all that money for Battle. I'd rather go to the draft and manage with Frosty for now
i'm loving what Frosty is doing this year. I'm happy to get Battle but I'm not sure about Barrass. Sicily moving forward means we lose his penetrating kick off half back.

Leaks obviously and selling a paper.
Hindsight?

new to this are you...they all do the same thing...year after year....until they get what they want.

Oh God, who cares. Coaches not seeing eye to eye. Riveting!
