Reported on the news tonight that Hawks training was unexpectedly cancelled in favour of an hour long team meeting with regards to players disobeying team rules .Does anyone have any further info than that ?Crawford didn't front either ,sick apparently.
 
Just heard them discussing this on SEN. They said apparently Clarkson wasn't pleased with aspects of the leadership group and read the riot act. This is nothing new of course, it happens at all clubs, but because it's Hawthorn it's news, and of course it must be Crawford.

They admitted they didn't know the story, and yet they rabbited on for 5 minutes about a hypothetical of Crawford refusing to play under Clarkson. The media really gives me the Edgars at times. Full of speculation, and full of something else that also begins with "s".

Just prior to this they had that Richmond boofhead Miller on, and he also had to have a dig at Hawthorn about allowing Crawford to appear on the Footy Show. What is it about people at Richmond? Is sticking it to the Hawks a compulsory part of their membership or something? I think they'd be better served to concentrate more on what they are doing and a little less on us.

They commented that Hawthorn would struggle because last year wasn't good, and they have to get used to a new coach .... and yet 2 minutes earlier they were pulling themselves over how well Richmond are responding to Wallace. I've had a gutful already.
 
I'm backing Clarkson all the way. Time for the team to stand up and be counted. These guys have an opportunity to play football and get paid for it.

Plenty of people around the country get up early and leave late at work and get paid a lot less then these guys. They should stop stuffing around and do their job. And don't start on the "their just kids" line, work is work.

I swear I saw Dr Pink on the Footy Show last Thursday. And i'm equally sure their self-promoting coach will make numerous appearances during the year. What a fool - he ought to think before he talks.

I'll tell you now Clarkson is far from a favourite among the football media. They always prefer the promoter types to those who keep things in house. Apparently yesterdays events were yet another media beat-up.
 
Nothing against Clarkson reading the players the riot act but a venue other than the function room in the Social Club to do so probably would of been better suited,considering the media conferences are always conducted there.The media done nothing wrong, coaching staff did ,should of been over the road in the players room,just another stuff up to add to the list of those already taken place and those to come.
