I'm just interested to know if people think Alistair Clarkson would be a good help for Tassie's AFL bid and if you think he would likely coach a Tassie team.

I think he will be huge in the AFL bid - just by lending his name to the campaign. But he is also clearly a great strategic thinker and powerful advocate.I'm just interested to know if people think Alistair Clarkson would be a good help for Tassie's AFL bid and if you think he would likely coach a Tassie team.
What do you think is afoot?You only have to listen to him talk about grassroots Tassie footy, giving back to the state, his long involvement down there, etc to know that something is afoot.
It's an appendage at the bottom of your leg, but Strapping Young Lad may disagree.What do you think is afoot?

Yep team bonding…Clarko….ten five sevenSuspect Clarko would quite enjoy giving the finger to Kennett by joining a Tassie bid tbh, though it would never be the main reason.

Could see him do a Roos type limited tenure and handover at GCS followed by a move to Tassie to set them up. I’m sure the fine details could quickly be sorted during a coffee with Gil.Unless the AFL pay his wage for the next 5 or 6 years I imagine he is going to be coaching GCS or GWS when Tasmania get a team or merge with another team.
No he isn'tIs he from Tasmania originally?

Kaniva go?..tricky situation at bestIs he from Tasmania originally?
Clarkson will provide assistance in developing a strategy for funding the new team, a proposed stadium in Hobart, state football pathways and talent identification as the taskforce creates a runway towards a standalone AFL team in Tasmania.
“Alastair will use his existing knowledge and access to prime American sports teams to provide specification on what is required for a best-of-breed training and high-performance centre,” Mr Gutwein said.
“He’ll also provide input on the best way to engage with ex-Tasmanian AFL players, here and interstate.”
I struggle to see a new Stadium in Hobart being viable unless it's used for other sports and concerts.
People,people,crowds, money money,money, heart, hart, hurt…Isn't that the point of most stadiums?
Yes but living in tasmania we have limited big sports and concerts.Isn't that the point of most stadiums?
The concerts died in the arse because it was almost only ever Grinspoon or Silverchair that headlined themYes but living in tasmania we have limited big sports and concerts.
Which sports and what concerts though?Isn't that the point of most stadiums?
