    Aren't they doing North a favour in effect because the more he earns the less compensation they have to pay him for terminating his contract?

      I wonder what jobs they have lined up Hardwick and Clarkson.

        For those of you on here that aren’t massive fans of the Hawks or Alastair “Genius” Clarkson, Jordan Lewis says they need to rebuild via the draft and that Clarko may NOT be the man for the job.

        Is Clarkson the man to rebuild the Hawks? Jordan Lewis raises the question

          There would be a big bottoming out if they did that. Because you would think they would have to offload some talent to get the good draft picks they would need.
          Mitchell back to Sydney. ?

          But I dont think Clarko should stay either. He would be better advised to take on a Melbourne, or Giants or even Collingwood.

            Their list is in pretty bad shape. Melbourne might be the answer

              I can't possibly see how they can go anywhere near winning a flag with their current list. Their young players are average at best. I think Clarkson should probably move on, much like I think a reasonable argument could be made (not saying I support such an argument) that the Swans should have contemplated doing the same thing with longmire. But they've tried to short circuit their way towards competing again - much in the same way Lol@Norf have too.

                So our round 8 opponent is Hawthorn on Saturday arvo at the SCG.

                Stand-by for 'ugly footy cup' takes.

                FIXTURE: Swans to face Hawks at SCG

                  Don't want Mitchell back Baz. Did you see him at the weekend. Slow as a wet week and kicks it just the allowable distance. Gave them nothing and didn't appear to be tagged.

                    Wonder if there’s a chance a second wave in NSW will put a spanner in the works.

                      ‘Melbourne and Richmond are preparing to get their remaining fringe players out of Victoria this week against the backdrop of a looming fixture logjam and lockdown in their home state.’

                        Talk that NRL is going to move entire competition to QLD. With the way it's all heading in Melbourne and now possibly Sydney, AFL might have to do the same..............

                            Like NSW are doing now? This is not the time for state based 'bragging'.....we're actually all Australians atm.

                                LOL! On a serious note, how big is that joint? Queensland now testing a number of people who were there.
