asked for respect of the 30-year old’s privacy during this time.

Fun player to watch, hopefully a full recovery and back playing footy soon.

RE: Freo, Im surprised they never went with Bullsharks to start with. Strong name, and aren't going to get sued by a pair of pants.

 

[kane249]

Speedy recovery for Cunnington hopefully, glad they caught it early

 

[garlic munchers]

The should bring back the anchor to be fair. Their current strip has no soul, much like the tripe.

Interesting to read Josh Carr's comments to Fox Sports on retro round.

"I think its great to see many of the traits that were around when I was at the club, are still there.

Good to see hard men like Lobby and Willo continue to instill the fear in opponents that Matty and me did.

Great that the club continues to not discriminate against shorter players. Not that I am saying blokes like Shultz, Colyer, Crowden and Giro have the skills I had, or even belly did, because they really are pretty shite. On Belly, he's a funny man. I got his jokes and he got mine. Everyone elses just seemed to go over Belly's and my heads.

One thing I do envy about the club now is that, even though its so 2010's, is that the players get to have man buns.

Gee if I have had one of those in my day, Kicketty would slapped me around like Phil Reads head on derby day. Mind you, it would have got Byron even more excited that he was on that day when my towel slipped off in the changerooms. And people wonder why we call him the Schazammer!

Ah retro round, brings back all my Freo career highlights. What highlights you ask?

Well like ........................................................... getting to ruffle Cuzz's hair was pretty special.

Also, getting to invest in Geraldton real estate with Belly may have cost me lots of doolah, but it gave me good insight as to why he will succeed as Freo's GM."

Cunnington looks like he's related to Hurn

Purple logic, gotta love it

I think it was the "West Coast" thing which wasn't an Australian way to refer to our side of the country. But it is in America to refer to the "West Coast". At least that's what they were arguing many moons ago when I let them know:

"Number of American companies the Eagles have to have agreements with to use their IP: 0"

I kind of wish they'd gone with Fremantle Port ("the Port"), if only to see how Port Adelaide would then have gone about entering the league.

 

[DirtySandman]

I still remember sitting around with some mates, when they announced the name and colours.

oh we laughed, ……still do.

Hawthorn and four-time premiership coach Alastair Clarkson part ways

Hawthorn and its legendary premiership coach Alastair Clarkson will part ways at the end of the season, and potentially sooner.

The decision was reached on Thursday after a meeting between the Hawthorn board and Clarkson’s management in which the two parties agreed that the coach would receive a full payout.

The arranged marriage between Clarkson and Sam Mitchell was further-eroded earlier this week when a group of senior players confided to club bosses that the situation was proving untenable.


This meeting is understood to have taken place on Wednesday and involved the senior leadership group, club boss Justin Reeves and football director Richie Vandenberg.

Vandenberg and Clarskon are understood to have spoken following that meeting and the two parties agreed that Clarkson would finish his illustrious tenure at the end of the season.

Reckon Caro's owed a few apologies now

Yikes that an ugly exit for a legend.

Carlton or Collingwood?

 

[kane249]

Looks like they didn't take notes from the Malthouse-Buckely transition at Collingwood

What a schamozzle

 

[Chris_6678]

Handover only really works when the Coach makes it public he is ready to step away from coaching like Roo's did.

If i was Clarko i would try get the GWS gig if GWS lose patients with their coach.

Gee wizz. That makes Clarkos press conference look very strange now. Poorly handled by Hawthorn. Bit of a 'but what have you done for me lately?'
