Beating GR with the link, he will come at you with a knife...

Essentially the same as Watson that Essendon had not met with Clarko despite media reports.

Then the Tassie comments about Clarko sending us to Tassie could be hinted at as a bit of bitterness. at being told no (speculation)

In what world does a coach send a club to Tassie??? Let’s stop and take a deep breath for a moment. Whoever is pontificating on that front is clearly just taking the puss (kiwi pronunciation) out of us.

WTF, Ponting is on board with that?

Robbo was good tonight. Barracking for us hard.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Has north confirmed that we’ve put a deadline to clarko or is it media BS

North has still said absolutely nothing, just like from the beginning.

 

[The Dingrel]

Another stealth operation orchestrated by the president done by design and the media won't even get a sniff no doubt.

Maybe he’s telling his sprogs to reunite at north.

 

[cAsEy_18]

They white-anted Knights as well. Abhorrent club.

Yep, agreed.

What we did to Knights was disgraceful.

What we're doing to Rutten is disgraceful.

I'm not sure what I'm hoping for here. I don't think Clarkson would steer us to the "promise land" anytime soon. But we've screwed Rutten over so badly that the media are unfortunately probably correct in that situation is untenable.

But I think Clarkson makes more sense for you guys.

I go and feed my child and you campaigners pump out another 15 pages.

Insanity.

Gerard doesnt want us to get Clarko. If we do he will have a conniption. Good on Robbo for trying to mount a defence for us.

That twat was only last night saying he’ll be the * coach by the end of the week. Backtracking if you ask me.

so is this deadline factual or are the media once again just making up stuff

 

[blackshadow]

I have from a very very good source they are actually discussing Hird as an option

This club has become a laughing stock

If Hird is an option that’s why Robbo is talking Clarko down

My St.Kilda supporting mate at work tells me this morning "Looks like you've missed out on Clarko. You would've got him if you moved to tassie". I lolled at him, told him "Rutten was heading to Arden St. as an assistant coach under Clarko*, we've got him. Besides, your mob are off down there". Once again he turned and walked away.

* Thanks to whomever mentioned it about 217 pages ago

 

[CURVE]

184 pages in less than two days and nothing has really changed. We still don't know what North is thinking and we still don't know what Clarkson is thinking.

All the speculation and bullshit coming from the media is exceeded only by some real drongo's on Big Footy.

 

[Caracas]

Feels again what was actually said had been twisted. Sounds like Robbo was referring to * when talking about arranged marriages.

100%. Robbo is now barracking for North to land Clarko. It goes without saying that the media are treating this like a circus. Every single, conceivable angle will get a guernsey right up until the final decision.

“Is it because the wealthy conservatives in the northwest corridor of Melbourne, who grow the big hedges and own the bigger house, believe no man worth his salt would reject such a famous football club?”

Wow Robbo, you might be a drunk but boy can you write. North’s heritage is the hard as nails, Irish Catholic, working class, labourer’s team, and now we’re the small but plucky, diverse, innner-city trendy club. Essendon on the other hand is the club a few stations north on the rail line - leafy suburban, white, middle class, Protestant and milk toast but oh so rich and powerful. We’re natural enemies and I think Robbo really gets this.

Robbo clearly loves Essendon deeply but maybe a part of him is just a little envious of us, and our underdog status. My respect for him grows and grows.

We need rutten to coach this week - I reckon he might get huge support. Then it will be hard to sack him

Most * fans I’ve spoken to are done with Rutten. Don’t think there will be huge support.

 

[The Dingrel]

Whateley was the one who broke the news that Clarko has pulled out of the running at GWS so is in the know with someone.

Was also one the one a few weeks back that thought Clarko would more than likely sit out next year than coach GWS or North?

Interesting though that “wants to stay in Melb”. So why even speak to them in the first place. I’d suggest to be in a strong negotiating position with north. Reckon Sonja’s entitled to call Clarkos bluff in that one and demand an answer.

I was actually just talking about John Devoy on Sunday Though he might not have been much of a footballer
