The Review

[The Karma Bus]

Could you imagine Burton being on the receiving end of one of Dunstall's sprays, oh how I love to dream

Just one of Dunstall's glares of disapproval at Birdbrain would be great, when hes gathering some info and thinking "you actually ****ing did this? You run it this way?"

Doesn't really matter who they get to do the review unless things change.

Didn't Dunstall have a lot to do with Clarko getting hired at hawthorn?

Dunstall was why that happened.

It does matter though, because if you have a quality name who has been there and done it all with another club (like Dunstall) charing it, it makes ignoring any advice a very dangerous move.

Physically dangerous too

The fact Dunstall is involved gives me great hope, he cleaned up Hawthorn in a huge way back in the day. Now we wait and see how serious the club is but for all the Chapman knocking he did say when we found out the quality of the people doing the review we should be satisfied. I'm happy enough with the reviewers appointed I just hope they pull no punches and we get some meaningful change.

This is a great result.. There’s no way the Chief will be part of any sham review

If you ignore the key recommendations of this committee, your name will be mud in the industry .....interesting that Dunstall requested Fagan sit in as an observer, I gather

Dunstall's First Question?

Do you dribble kick? no you stay

Yes Then get OUT!!!

 

[Slippery Pete]

Apparently one of Duntsall’s review outcomes is already in:

-No more dribble kicks

 

[ContrarianCrow]

Absolutely stoked with the Dunstall appointment.

Beat me by a second!

 

[hey shorty]

Probably means Stengle won't get a game either.

 

[Jaeger]

Dunstall an outstanding appointment. Will be brutal, he doesn't **** around.

Probably a good call to have someone at the high end of the club involved as well (and Fagan would probably be the higher up with the most job security at the moment), gives more weight to make sure it occurs.

In case it's paywalled

THE few people close to Jason Dunstall say he wouldnt have it any other way.
He may be aloof and even arrogant, but his devotion to Hawthorn Football Club is beyond question.

Not many people would immediately identify Dunstall as a pillar of the organisation

Most associate the man nicknamed “Chief” and “Piggy” with ape and fat jokes for his role on Fox Footy’s Yesterday’s Heroes segment with Danny Frawley.

They also know him as a commentator whose acid tongue belies a deep understanding of the game.

But Dunstall is far more than a vaudeville act.

He was a magnificent footballer, an all-time great, and according to former Hawthorn president Jeff Kennett, an equally great administrator.

“Jason is a very private individual and there is a public Jason Dunstall,” Kennett said.

Dunstall has been Hawthorn football director since 2004, the year he was interim chief executive, and is acknowledged for identifying Alastair Clarkson as the right coach for the club.

It was a defining period of transition for the Hawks after coach Peter Schwab was sacked late in the 2004 season.

A subcommittee that included Dunstall and Dermott Brereton had interviewed Gary Ayres, Terry Wallace and Rodney Eade for the coaching position.

History has it Brereton wanted Ayres, that Mark Harvey’s mobile phone number went missing and he missed out on an interview and, in the end, the search for an experienced coach was expanded to the search for the best coach.

Two minutes into Clarkson’s presentation, Dunstall was so impressed he basically announced the club had found its man.

Together, Dunstall and Clarkson have grown to be loyal friends, tenacious servants of the club, and the backbone of the football department.

Shouldn't be paywalled. I could read it.


Some great points on why Dunstall is a good chair for our review.

I am less sceptical now.

How much do you reckon Brett Burton would be shitting his pants right now? Dunstall won’t see through his crap.

 

[rocket18]

Wow, Dunstall, amazing. I'm stunned.

Pav, lol window dressing.

People quoting Pavs on field exploits is all you need to know why he shouldn't be on the panel.

No one has put forwards Jasons on field credentials, why is that?

Because they are not bloody relevant to conduct a review.

But one A+ and one C is pretty good for us.

Everyone else wanted Ayres.
Dunstall insisted on Clarkson.

Fagan has to understand, outside getting the report & a briefing ....what lead the committee to arrive at the conclusions .....makes it easy for Fagen to act on the report

Unusual ... The Australian is normally the most "paywalled" paper

What's the bet he's currently booking an overseas holiday at very short notice?

"Nah sorry guys I'm not going to be in phone range."

Again Burton was horrible today at that interview .....might be smart, but if his communication skills are horrid, he can't do his current role !!!!

Pav has to be one of the most respected names in the game. He's ideal to have on the panel.

 

[dogs105]

Did Pav take over AFLPA directly from Burton, or was there someone else in between?

 

[Crow till I die]

just echoing the sentiments here. Dunstall is a guy that commands huge respect and he seems to be a no nonsense sort of person. Having Pavlich there as well means that you have 2 guys that have been in and around football for decades and both know what individual success looks like but also both were strong onfield leaders. Therefore I think that they are best placed to be able to pick out the fractures between the management and players and will have the reputation that to ignore their findings will be the club's peril. Now lets sit back and let them dig right through the workings of the club and wait for the recommendations

Brett Burton just shit his pants, ran to the toilet and shit some more
