Haha… so it was agreed and a done deal.. and now this. You’re guessing.

Surprised people are still buying into his BS.

 

[susurrar]

the vibe i got from the second clip is that its a very strong possibility he will sit out.

Brasher: you know we have a perfectly good coach??
Essendon Board: but Brash!! This is what they do at Richmond/Carlton/....Essendon!!

 

[Tas]

This board is going to be ******* miserable if we lose out

Come on, mate. Let's be realistic... it is already miserable. We've had to put up with weeks of rice cooker shenanigans.

 

[Uncle_Leo]

Won't be any different to the past 5 years.

Only 5?

 

[scottywiper]

Everything's coming up Kangas! lol

 

[Shinboner1]

I reckon announcement is tomorrow.
Clarko guilty about the shit Truck is going through, doesn't want another weekend of questioning about Clarko going to Essendon.

 

[Ashley B]

Hoping North media have a "Special Surprise"for us soon

**** around two clubs for months then not make a decision... It would be a retirement announcement if he sits out.

Clarkson said on 9news he isn't concerned about Essendon's instability.

Lol probably because they STILL HAVE A COACH

 

[Ry009]

I'm in the 'dont think its a done deal/he's genuinely making up this mind' camp.

I think in the perfect world, he wanted to wait until Monday to make an announcement but to be fair to all parties he needs to come out tomorrow.

I think he's probably annoyed that the media have pushed him into bringing a decision forward.

After the comments about board stability and Essendon's current board/Rutten woes, Sheedys Tassie comments, mentioning Rutten still being under contract.....to completely disregard that, have no due process and completely throw all that out the window, would be the all biggest about face of all time.

I think it's either us or no-one as well.

Both Patch and Rutten deserve to go into this and weekend with a clear head of where things are at. It's at the point where not knowing is a bigger distraction than knowing.

 

[Themanbun]

Told ye's.

 

[Cool Kangas]

Yep I watched both channels and was about to post the same. I get the feeling that the choice is down to us or nothing.

I don’t

Imagine lmao

Clarkson said on 9news he isn't concerned about Essendon's instability.

If he said otherwise it would confirm that he wasn’t going to them prior to supposedly telling us tomorrow.
He has to play any question with a straight bat, mind you I bet my arse he isn’t coming to us!!!

 

[Themanbun]

nah, the only thing he's considering is North or another gap year

This.

Patch knows where things are at. He’s not coaching North in 2023.

I wouldn't be concerned either if I'd already picked North.

Patch is an interim coach and he knows, we know, Clarko knows and everyone knows he isn't going to be head coach next year, he will go back to be the VFL coach. If he wants to be a senior coach he would need to do a serious apprenticeship as an assistant under a good coach.

Same here. At the very least, I'm confident that neither North or Essendon know the answer.

This is my takeaway.
