Someone with a job and paying no rent having no money and no clothes speaks to an impressive send off.

Surely he had to know this would come out.

Does this mean Hawthorn is withdrawing the cash offer...

There were a number of claims made by Hawthorn in their deposition. Included in the claim about him being drunk or high when picked up at the airport he was said to have admitted that he had no clothes and no money left in the bank.

That does sound like a ripping night out.

Probably not the best idea to get his employers to pick him up after a bender.

It’s kinda the opposite of that.

Shots fired.

More like lifting the rug to hide something, and finding so much already that it spills out

“ it’s not a lie if you believe it” and that goes for both parties.

Memories, feelings, perceptions are all subject to inconsistencies between different parties in the very same scenarios.

The great man agrees with you.

I’ve been strong all along that what Jackson did was gutter journalism at its very worst. He did a character assassination on Clarkson, Fagan and Burt with from what I can tell with zero hard evidence.

The moment he published that “story” this was going to be a s..t show from start to finish. That claim especially about the forced termination, now it appears that the meeting didn’t even occur? That blows my mind TBH. How can you publish a claim that damaging without hard evidence?

Goes to the wider decline of the ABC overall, the standards at that institution are really a cause for worry these days.

Would you say it’s all part of the radical left’s woke Marxist agenda?

Id say it was a glory hunter jumping the gun on a story he simply didnt do anywhere near enough research on.

As we are now seeing.

Hasn't it ended up in the Federal Court?

I’d just call it poor journalism.

I remember at the time when this first broke hearing Caroline Wilson state that she was surprised that the ABC published the story given the lack of hard evidence to back it up (or words to that effect).

And yes there is a trend with the ABC lately that there journalistic standards do falter when they feel like they can champion one of their causes. They are a long, long way from being the impartial broadcaster that they are meant to be.

I’d say the odds of the ABC being on the wrong end of a lawsuit from the coaches has increased quite a bit after what I’ve read today.
