For all we know.Dusty has 5 sons with the first due as F/S in 2028 and the next 4yrs.

a Big part of me wants this to be true

 

[_RT_]

As far as I know Hardwick is a mature adult as such is entitled to do whatever the hell he wants in his private life as long as he isn't breaking the law or club policies.

Those that are having a crack at him over this are saying more about themselves than they are about Hardwick in so much that as long as he brings us success and everything runs smoothly its fine, but if anything changes then he is a shit bloke and poor human.

For all we know his marriage could well have ended a while ago but to keep things from being a distraction they agreed to keep it quiet until the season ended. Now that it's over they announced the split and have seemingly moved on with their lives. None of that is any of our business and the club will eventually decide if there is any action to be taken, but for now they are sticking by him and so should we.

thats exactly what the Murdoch garbage media does...expose ordinary people who never sought being in the limelight in the first place

the dregs Of society have been summoned by the Herald Scum to abuse the hell out them...it’s a private matter and none of their freaking busInness

Brexit, corona etc. And the daily mail still found room for Hardwick

 

[Marcel Proust]

really? I’m relieved


.... I still stand by my point that some at the club would be saddened by the news regardless

They can go to her house for some pancakes?

As they say in the classics
Things come in threes
Don't be surprised if a 3rd
Head coach has followed in
Bucks and Dimmas ways

...Chris Scott having an elicit affair....screwing himself?

pancakes? Is that code?

 

[Marcel Proust]

pancakes? Is that code?

Waffles? BBQ?

They can go hang out like the cotchins. The sky is not falling

In London?

Move over Chelsea

club has handled it well. thompson was in a similar position at geelong. didn't adversely affect the on-field performance.

Why does he need to rebuild trust ?

Dimma started the exercise where players had to share 3 things (was it 3 H's ) and did a media piece with Brandon Ellis saying he walked a long way home so people didn't know he lived in a housing commission place …

its a team building exercise, the idea of it and I'm assuming the Richmond Man thing is to build trust within the team/club , grow the positive mindset ….

work places outside the AFL world try them from time to time , they aren't new and the tings they are trying to achieve are trust, harmony , respect
and once you know something about someone you tend to see them in a different light and that trust and workplace harmony comes easier

for us commoners its beers down the pub on a Friday arvo

now I'm in my 60's and often heard the knee jerk comment when someone finds out a work collegue/friend/ family member has cheated in a relationship
"I don't know that I can trust them any more"

We know that at least 2 players have stayed with the Hardwicks and I suspect plenty of people have had BBQ's or meals there
the AFL is a different and more intense workplace than most

so a number of our players and coaches will feel they are close to either party or both , the news of the separation will cause shock and dismay
and the news cheating was involved will only heighten that

I've been thru a marriage separation and no cheating was involved and everyone pretty comfortable that it was all due to the bad behaviour of the other party , I still felt it took a while to rebuild relationships with my four kids and happy to say I've got good contact with all four

the way people within the club now view Damien and interact with him will change
and then the way he behaves from now on will continue to reshape those relationships and interactions

I hope its for the good of all concerned

He considering was selling drugs and danking up his players...

Bit of a nutter?

Jai Bednall the gutter journalist. Apparantly a sports journalist whose articles are all about relationship bust-ups or sexting.

In regards to the 2nd part of your comments - how would you react if your boss left his family for someone else? At the end of the day your focus is the job.

I've always been a bit unsure of the dimma as a father figure thing. Richmond men. Etc. Seems boarder line collective minds.

The 3 flags is probably pretty good evidence to the contrary though

 

[Ceehook]

hopefully this stuff gets sorted behind the scenes

and as the preseason kicks into gear we can do what we love , concentrate on footy, and dissect it to the Nth degree
with a bit of oppo sledging thrown in for good measure

Won't anyone think of the elephants?

Dima has elephants covered in the cankles department

Fair post but there's a lot of hypocrisy in this thread with people saying "nothing to see here" if this was another club like the pies, bombers or blues we'd be pissing ourselves laughing. Sometimes we jsut have to cop the shit and blowback from things like this, having 3 flags means the shit doesn't taste as bad.

No idea that Dusty was married. So are we talking about someone else wife?

Tbh even if dusty cheated on his wife with another wife I wouldn't care. The only way it'll be bad footy wise is if it's a carey situation. Stop making things worse than what it is. You don't even know 100% he cheated or what went on in their relationship to prove it. What we do know is he was single and in a relationship now. So there's nothing wrong with that. If you have conclusive proof then be my guest. Put it on here. Because you do realize couples can privately agree to separate before announcing it.

Even more common for it to involve a male executive and a young attractive lady. Its happening every day in an office near you.

Two consenting adults yawn. If the person was forced or bribed or blackmailed then yes it's bad . If they are attracted to each other then mind your own business. Still baffled as to why this is a big deal. People have relationships at work all the time as you said

Who coaches the drug cheats?

I don't think people would be laughing if woosha. Rutten. Blake. Etc. We're having personal relationship problems

Ditto lions. Gws etc. Tigers fans are a classy bunch of lads and ladies.

Buckley. Hird. Are different cause they are scum category

In the age of 47 genders and people being allowed to identify as rabbits imagine being upset by dimmas relationship's
