It’s all rigged, the AFL is corrupt and conflicted … even Mother Teresa would be found guilty by this crooked mob.

Nothing on AFL or NMFC website about this alleged incident, its all click bait stories, 5 days after it apparently occurred.

Ill wait until something official comes out, not something from Caro, Robbo or Morris.

I've got no issues with him abusing Lloyd, good that he stood up for his players.
And dragging incidents up from 2006, nearly 20 years ago... do they even count any more?

Look, he was well behaved between 2015 and 2022.

Mind you the 2022 incident covered items from throughout that period....
Yeah ok, its hard to make a case for him.

Story an AFL Website. Not unusual for AFL to take forever to sort out issues, as per Ken Hinkley an AFL360 Monday night

Strongly worded script by the club that was executed well by the senior coach.

Well there you go, can't believe a coach would swear in anger during the heat of a footy game

[locky801]

Well Tommy, i get every story Morris has just stated that Clarkson has escaped sanction and the words he used could not be proven that they were said directly to an official, time to move on

NORTH Melbourne coach Alastair Clarkson has avoided punishment after an AFL probe into his alleged use of profane language near the umpires' bench during Saturday's 59-point loss to Port Adelaide.

Clarkson admitted during the AFL Integrity Unit's investigation that he had sworn loudly and used inappropriate language in response to an umpiring decision during the third quarter while standing near the umpires' and officials' bench.

However after talking to match officials, the AFL was not satisfied Clarkson's outburst was directed towards a specific person or match official, and therefore found no breach of AFL rules.

The League was alerted to Clarkson's alleged comments by a match-day official following Saturday's game, with the Integrity Unit subsequently commencing an investigation.

In a statement released on Thursday evening, the Kangaroos said Clarkson would not coach from the bench for the rest of the year, and had apologised to the AFL.

"I acknowledge that during the third quarter of Saturday’s game in a moment of frustration I lost my temper and swore while I was coaching from the bench," Clarkson said.

"It was undisciplined by me and I have expressed my apologies to the AFL.

"As a club we can do without these distractions and as such I have agreed that it’s best if I remain in the coaches box on match days for the rest of this season.

"In the meantime I’ll continue to seek support on how I deal with these moments."

North Melbourne CEO Jennifer Watt said the club would support Clarkson's personal development in this area.

"Alastair has accepted that his language was inappropriate and we are aligned in the measures he will take in response to this incident," she said.

"We fully support him as he works to improve his reactions."

[dedja]

As per ruck contests where the ruckman for each team must identify themselves, the AFL profanity law dictates that the swearer must nominate the target(s) of the profanity.

In addition, the swearer shall benefit from lifetime immunity if they have been involved in 4 or more premierships.

Incredible, some of the media were calling for 5 matches

Cmon mate, we know who he directed it at.
He just lied about that bit.

And in an isolated case it’s not a problem.
