One day the claimant in one of these cases will be motivated in the truth more than a cash settlement.
Only then will the true story come out.
The cash or the confidentiality clause.
Pick a box, the cash or the box of worms.
It’s easy to say that from afar, but reality is very, very different. You are better off not knowing because that means you haven’t had to go through the system.

There’s a reason the vast majority of cases are settled out of court and justice or tge truth have little to do with it

Interestingly the ABC dont use the word "financial" in describing the settlement. Maybe after Hawthorn unloaded all their evidence the players and their lawyers looked for a quiet way out.
Abc are masters of these statements. Use emotive language when it suits their agenda, and are as vague ad possible when it doesnt
 
with the nature of cases like this I dont think you can draw any conclusion one way or the other merely from the fact a settlement was reached.
This is the right answer.

There is always a risk going forward even if you have the other side over a barrel.

One of, or both sides, may have felt this way.

There is also a pure cost-benefit analysis. Even if Hawthorn think they are in the clear, do they want to devote energy to this during the middle of next season?
