HAWTHORN coach Alastair Clarkson and AFL CEO Gill McLachlan had a secret meeting on Monday morning.
Foxfooty.com.au understands Clarkson used the unplanned catch-up as an opportunity to further put pressure on the league following his post-match comments on Friday night.
Clarkson was frustrated Sydney’s defenders blocking his forwards, declaring they got away “with blue murder” in the loss.
On Monday morning at 7am, McLachlan agreed to meet with Clarkson at Club Social Cafe in Prahran, where the four-time premiership coach showed the AFL chief examples of what he was talking about on Friday evening.
Laptop in hand, Clarkson pleaded his case with McLachlan.
