The Tackle: Lock in Rutten, Clarko call down to two


1. Ben Rutten’s a lock

That’s wins over St Kilda, Brisbane, Sydney and Gold Coast in four of their past five matches, all teams in the finals or competing for a finals spot. The change came against Carlton, even though the Bombers lost, and they haven’t looked back. One-on-one defence, explosion from the backline, groundball hunger and personnel changes have resurrected a damaged season, and Essendon can hardly make a move for Alastair Clarkson after Rutten has met and exceeded the club’s ambitions in the second half of the season. From when Clarkson’s manager said seven or eight clubs had made contact, it now appears that only two senior coaching positions are available – at the Giants and at the Kangaroos. Then again, Clarkson might ignore overtures from both those clubs and wait for – and cast a shadow over – the next 12 months. It’s extraordinary when you consider that perhaps only two clubs will consider one of the great coaches of the modern era for next year.

Have to be in the box seat if it’s just us and the plastic giants

I don’t think we’d get an answer from Clarko until the afl decide what they are doing with the Tassie bid. By that time it’s possible Port move on Hinkley if they finish poorly so might not just be between us and the plastic franchise.

Port won’t sack a contracted Hinkley especially after they confirmed he would be there next year

Even if they did I’d still back us as we’d be the sole Melbourne club

We need to find out if Clarko is still overseas because nothing will be announced before he returns..
 
You’d think a guy whose organisation manages 8 guys on our list, plus the interim coach, would be more discreet. At least in public.

There’s only 18 clubs where you can place an AFL client.
In the old days I did used to listen to ABC radio sport. It is unbearable these days. In the car if desperate I'll turn it on but I inevitibly get angry.

Pickerings another who has a media profile and has to be careful not to be seen trashing an AFL club that he may need to deal with instantly.

Ramanauskas is still dirty he never recovered from the **** up that was Ben Browns contract.
It’s not our fault you’re a shitcampaigner Adam🤷🏻‍♂️
 
Mark Stevens suggesting James Henderson (Clarkos Manager) got on the front foot and rang the club two weeks ago. Interesting. See RSN927 this morning.
