News Hawthorn Racism Review - No player name speculation - opposition posters tread very carefully

[Strapping Young Lad]

Wrong. Hawks did what they had to do by the rules of the AFL.

Correct. For reference below, once the HFC had the report outlining serious allegations they were duty bound by the AFL’s protocol to hand over the report to the AFL integrity unit.

I will pin this post, as it seems to be a constant query.

Those now saying that the summation of proceedings has somehow vindicated in full the accused is just those who’ve wanted that to be the case the entire time wanting their final ‘see I was right!!’ victory lap. The simple fact is - the accusers and the accused have not changed their positions - mercifully the proceedings have just come to a close. There was no day in court to test the evidence in front of a judge/jury.

In an ever depressing world where the ideologically driven have to constantly ‘own’ the other side - there are absolutely no winners in this one. Its a sad chapter.

How about everyone stop looking for a victory lap and let’s hope the club is working behind the scenes to get to a point where both Clarko and Cyril can be present at the 2015 premiership reunion to allow more healing for the club.

Exactly, great summary.

Till next time everyone.
