Certified Legendary Thread Alastair Clarkson II - signs 5 year contract w/ North Melbourne 19 August 2022 - news breaks p360

[hsquid]

Alright, quiet now. You’re all on ignore. I’m working for the next 3 minutes.

 

[Le Grille]

Am I hearing end of season Big Footy trip?????

Unfortunately instead of being able to afford a trip to the Waikiki region I can only afford a trip to Waikiki in WA (suburb near Rockingham)

 

[LittleSizzle]

Alastair, please come home. We are your home ground. The milk and cookies taste sweeter. Sure our stadium has changed. Sure we are bottom of the ladder. Though look at the upside. Only up from here. Essendon? Mate. A tainted challis. Tell you what, we will throw in a free Mazda. Anyone you want. RX9, no problem, 1992 626 silver, sure. Remember slow is fast. The sweet deal that is quick n dirty will forever feel not quite right. Follow the heart and come back home.

You my friend have no idea - I am not going to repeat myself or justify my info. Let’s just say he’s been talking to North a lot longer than the media think and anything to do with Essendon is complete hearsay.

So whens it being announced?

I'm happy to be proven wrong.
Maybe I'm pessimistic due to us being burnt so many times before.

Are you willing to back in an announcement this week or has * changed that?

 

[Clarke is King]

Before the Sydney game

 

[Shermanator]

Just a side note.

I really love the new Bigfooty function that when you type the work fcuk (not actual word) into a sentence it gives you the *

The parallels are uncanny and whoever came up with this concept is a genius!

There is a lot to unpack in this.

HE'S HERE GUYS

Yes and gone from being signed to agreeing that Al would be working out who is the best fit.

That is a U turn if there's ever been one.

What has premiership David KIng being saying or is has he gone quiet?

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

Well, here we go again.

I like one of the replies on that Tweet: "What a S*** Club".

Blokes, don’t attack KIA we appreciate you sharing this stuff but nothing to do with you I think it’s reasonable that we are a bit concerned about the sudden shift in the situation, we aren’t doubting the quality of your info at the time you share it but we have concerns things may change.

We’ve seen this film before.

Its not an attack on you

So whens it being announced?

I have no info on that at this time - original whispers were Thursday but as a previous post mentioned it may need to be after the GC game hence Monday. If it goes past that day then something will have changed.
One thing to keep in mind the Mazda extension may open the club up to questions on the coach - I don’t have any info on this - but perhaps the delay in this is good news in that we do them together or the coach first.
The only thing I can confirm is allegedly the coach (Patch) and captain were having a meeting on Thursday where they were to be told what’s happening. I do not know if this has been brought forward or cancelled.

Just the inside view I have. Unpacking it may reveal more of my insides than great insights.

 

[DesertRoo]

Again that is highly unlikely to be a clause in the contract. At worst it would be that he’s prohibited from doing any duties until expiration

What do you call seeking out assistants?
that would be 100% offical capacity, if he had a contract in place for next season

I feel so at ease whenever I see the David King avatar.

Kingy and I once embraced after a win in the wet when I was 16. Not sure I'd get my arms around him these days but I will be tracking him down for another cuddle if this gets over the line.

Go the ****ing Roos, get it done!!!

But think of the money you/it will make selling meth!

It’s fine - I don’t know every detail of this but enough to say we are still looking good.

Is on it again. Kudos mate, kudos.

 

[Psicosis]

Isn't surprising that the club would put off the Mazda announcement until the coach situation is clearer, is it? That press conference would be an absolute circus.

 

[TheKanga]

Odds for Rutten to be sacked tomorrow?

No offense nothing personal
But you did say he had signed with us
Everything is changing to much for me to be confident.

No I’m talking about signing and announcing
