Apparently that is what the small man said to Horsehead when he came off the field. Honestly Clarko, you are a first class knob jockey. And fancy Bateman getting one when Lloyd got four. Ridiculous. Looked at the replay of the Bateman coathanger and can't believe he copped just the one match for that. Didn't even pretend to look at the ball the little weasel.

Yep, my opinion of Clarkson has dropped a tad after reading that report this morning. The words of a man under a lot of pressure me thinks - still no excuse though.

Here he is courageously coming from behind to rearrange Ian Aitken's teeth in the famous 'battle of Britain' game in 1987.

What, as courageous as Yeats was off the square to Brereton ??
Or, Ablett jumping in to the middle of Dippers back with both knees puncturing his lung??
Or knocking Platten out in the 1st quarter..??
They were all pretty courageous acts by your lot..

Oh yeh, that's right...
We still went on and won the flag didn't we !!!!!

Yeh, I understand you not being in favour of someone flying the flag for a team mate...
Your lot has never done it, hence all the great performances over the years in the tough games...

Oh, hang on, I have totally overlooked Mooney..
He be da man !!!!!!

LMAO, dig up the past to defend the present.

It 'aint working.

Clarko = sook

And if Brown wants to define "sniping" just watch what Bateman does.

The Hawks will have lost much respect over the last week and deservedly so.

Yeh, I guess so..
Must of been my upbringing in the western suburbs listening to Port Adelaide's past forever..

From that article:

Aitken, now 42 and director of football at Xavier College, said watching Hawthorn in recent years had convinced him that Clarkson liked to recruit players ''and develop them into small, angry people'' who try to assert their physical dominance over opposing teams. ''Led by one Campbell Brown.

Ok so maybe clarko is a bit angry.

Perhaps, the hawks' ex-champ has been employed as specialist skills coach

Or Matthews on Bruns

Im not saying he was right behaviourally on this occasion, but I like Clarko's passion, there should still be a place for it in the game.

Not because you lived in the West mate, it's because you're a Bays fan....

Who says I am not in favour of flying the flag? All I'm saying is that Clarkson would get a job at Notre Dame after his coaching stint ends as he is a bell end of the highest order and I don't hear you saying otherwise.

No doubt I have suffered on numerous occasions at the hands of Port Magpies..
Scarred for life.....

Yet you didnt bag REB when he brought up the past (refer "Battle of Britain") to 'back up' the present?

REB wrote:Apparently that is what the small man said to Horsehead

Hutchy's favourite word too- apparently.

Apparently you have an axe to grind with the hawks- understandable REBmeister.

FWIW- I reckon he was on the money- Lloydy should retire. He was just reinforcing the fact.

REB wrote: And fancy Bateman getting one when Lloyd got four. Ridiculous.

Agreed. But apparently punching is worse than a bump these days. I know what I'd be instructing my blokes to do now if I was coach..."Slug em boys"

No class.

"Battle of Britian" ? WTF, Is there a "Great Wars" topic running somewhere?

I don't know who started it, who's right or wrong, who's guilty or innocent ... all I know is that when the Hawks and the Bombers play next year make sure you have your deck chair and an esky full of cold beer ready, sit back and enjoy the fireworks.
