AFL 360 - (and other Foxtel footy programs)

Watching AFL 360 with Clarkson and Scott, I get the feeling that they are not big fans of each other

Im led to believe its the opposite, they got on well when they coached the Australian team together

Perhaps it’s all part of the ‘theatre’

I got the feeling Clarkson didn't really want to be there .... dodged a few of Robbo's questions and played down Stratton's actions. Let's not forget Clarkson was up there with Libber as one of the geatest pests on the field.

“Pests” is being kind. The pair of them were filthy grubs in their playing days.

Clarkson defending Stratton, now that's funny.

He has no choice really

No doubt he would have at very least known it was a tactic Stratton was using, if he come out now and condemned it he would lose all respect from his players as he most likely at very least turned a blind eye to it to the players.

Rubbish, he could say he's spoken to Stratton about it, doesn't think it's part of our game and would rather not have his leader do something like that.

To say "Lots of worse things have happened on the field" is a cop out and as weak as Stratton's actions.

Agree. Always rate Clarko and think he always speaks a lot of sense.

HOWEVER, last night on AFL360 he was terrible, the points he was making re Stratton were ridiculous.

And to top it off his comments re Stack/Betts incident were just as bad.

Not a great night by Alistair!

Clarko's clearly aware of Stratton's tactics, and is probably a win at all costs old school type of coach. 17 clubs will bag him for it, 1 club will love him for it given the success he's overseen at the Hawks.

The actions of pinching and stomping were dog acts, and Stratton will be duly punished, but we've seen a lot worse so the hysteria is probably a bit OTT.

If he critises Stratton his essentially throwing him under the bus and that will only then encourage the calls for Stratton to be sacked as captain to which at that point how does Clarkson not sack him. Remembering it's highly likely Clarkson endorsed the tactic, given the style of player he was himself and the pride they have worn the unsociable football tag with.

If your boss at work has been telling you to do something at work to which you have done, you then get in strife and he throws you under the bus looking like the good guy whilst you cop the shit your going to be fuming!

Absolute joke, I endorse the one for stomping but please, one match for pinching, what damage was pinching going to cause compared to say Ablett and Fyfe's elbows? I get that its something we don't want kids copying but neither is an elbow to the head. A fine would've been sufficient

Agreed Daisy. Shit. Better bookmark this post!

He should've got 2 for stomping and a fine, large one, for pinching.
I would've pinched him so freaking hard back I'd pull skin off. See how he liked it back.

Yeah a fine for pinching and 1 week for the stomp was fair IMO

He intentionally tried to injure someone. Minimum 2 for mine.

Yep, 3 for the stomp - dog act.
