If true this doesn’t auger well for us, I’ve had a bit of experience in the recruitment game (admittedly not for afl coaches) and by the time you’re having your3rd meeting with a prospective employer you’re just finalising the finer details ie: only have to come to Sydney on match says etc

I’m guessing Clarkson would only meet with us as a courtesy to say he’s committed elsewhere unless of course North turns into one of these:

Some idiot on the * board reckons Clarke's on his way there

Ahh yes the ol’ “mate, of a mate“ chestnut..

Sorry Duncan, can you please repost that without quoting the Essendon poster? It's against site rules to quote from other forums.

Ambassadorial role, yet another AFL rort for Northern clubs.

Yeah it’s not a great look - if he was completely disinterested in GWS job you’d think he wouldn’t speak to them 3 times.

On the other hand it shows if we didn’t move on Noble now, we’d have no chance after the season. At least now we are in with a shot.

To be fair they sacked their coach 10 weeks ago... they've got a bit of a lead on us.

I dunno man.
If I was Clarko I’d be playing off North against GWS until the end of the H&A season, while they pitch increasingly ridiculous offers my way in an attempt to outdo each other.

Just going through the formalities before he says “Thanks Jimmy (Bartel) but no thanks..”

Ambassadorial role, yet another AFL rort for Northern clubs.

Yep. What started out as Multicultural Ambassadors quickly morphed into a role that we can throw money at to help our own agenda.

Worked well for GWS with Stephen Coniglio and Jeremy Cameron. I could easily see North offering 1.3M and GWS offering 1M + 300k in AFL ambassador money.

Why would you go and live in the western suburbs of Sydney for a team nobody cares about when you can stay in Melbourne. I mean really.

But I get it, he's upping his bargaining chip.

He’s not about the upping of his bargaining chips. He knows he will get paid well at either club.

For us, our issue will be convincing Clarko we have the best people in place off field. And if we’re keeping it real, we all know the answer to that! No we don’t, as it stands!

Gerard reckons he'll take neither job. Might be the worst thing to lose to. Uncertainty.
