lol

I mean seriously.

This needs both Rutten and Hinkley to get the axe, right now both have contracts for next year. Then it needs Clarkson to choose Essendon.

Why even both typing such dribble up.

Its called ‘barracking’ for the *Bombers to get Clarko.

They all want it..

who could possibly like Essendon lol

They wanted us to go to GC too, fk them. Fk them all I say (not literally of course would be very tiring)

 

[Only Forwards]

Essendon will have to make a call on Rutten by Wednesday you'd think, but I'd be surprised if he survives tomorrow. I think we will know where Clarko is coaching by EOD Wednesday.

So on Monday there is a Board meeting and * catergoically keep their coach. Back him in the media.

Then within 48 hours are gonna knife him.

If this occurs the AFL and the AFLCA should be publically slamming them from pillar to post for running the shittest of shitshows.

Forget Clarkson this would be on par with Freo leaking to the media that Drum was gone before they actually knifed him.

I mean what sort of half measure is that? Hold an board meeting to axe the president, confirm the coach only to have to go through the whole thing again.

It is a little incongruent from mine that Clarkson who has been meticulous about what he wants and how he wants it would be completely fine with walking into a situation where the president has just stepped down, they knife the coach after publically not knifing the coach on the back of It''l be right.

What is strange is that they actually haven’t even sacked Rutten yet?

Wouldn’t a vacancy have to exist for Clarkson to take the job.

If it was a done deal why not sack Rutten today and just be done with it?

Very confusing….

I think the writing is on the wall. If Clarkson had already agreed to joining north verbally or signed some sort of a contract with the club, then the whole Essendon thing wouldn’t even be a topic at this point in time. Clarkson and his management team wouldn’t have even entertained the meeting between Essendon.

This one is really gonna hurt, more then the dusty/gaff/Kelly links.

Who the hell are you

That's what I've always done but I have had contacts with anti-poaching clauses in the past which may not be legally binding these days. When I have given notice a couple of companies directly asked if I had taken a role with a partner or an opponent (stupidly, I gave an honest response of no).

If I had said yes I'd have been exited on the spot by security and paid out for my notice period. By being honest I worked it

It was a daily event seeing people being walked out because of them signing on with the opposition back then.

Hawthorne might have included some form of penalty clause if that's still legal to prevent signing on with another club while the season is still alive. It is virtually unheard of in the AFL for players or coaches to change clubs mid season so some kind of constraint must exist despite restraint of trade laws being in place.

Are there any contact on lawyers around here?

We’ve only got a fat orangutan.

Still has a tweet up from midday 'Rutten gone'

* that!

Chocco should be the first and hopefully last call.

In the span of 36 hours this thread has exceeded 1/4 of the post limit of a thread.

It is legitimately ridiculous.

 

[Passmore]

who could possibly like Essendon lol

It’s a bigger story.

 

[Ligma]

Omg go to sleep guys

 

[Disco Dew]

Well that’s enough for one day. I’ll be up at 6am ready to do it all again!

 

[north_lad]

It’s a bigger story.

if it's such a huge story why have FC been running with North content front to back all year?

 

[north_lad]

Omg go to sleep guys

ok

 

[Rooboy 96]

Same, last I looked we were talking about British sitcoms.

Unfortunately this is playing out more like a soap opera.

I am still 36 pages back, just lock the thread until I catch up

Or it's the media making logical connections like they do every year with free agents.

I'll make the logical connection that the media are milking Clarko for every last clickbait drop before it's announced.

I'll go one step further and say some in the media know he's coming to north but are exploiting this essendon board spill to make it seem like he's going to essendon... Then in the final day or two day "north make a Hail Mary offer" and the tables switch AGAIN. Oh boy what an exciting week! Clarko signed with north, the same expectation at the start of the week but the media kept you guessing and entertained!

I think we’ll get confirmation around 4am Melbourne time.

 

[bwinnmforevr]

Was the dusty thread this big? Surely not 2500 posts in a day.

Just shows what a coup it would be to get Clarko.

Fingers crossed, but will move on quickly if not.

Can these threads be obliterated if we don't land him
