Clarkson threads [Merged]

Re: should we have taken clarkson ahead of wallace?

how about you guys take the question seriously for a sec

interms of matchday coaching terry is miles ahead of clarkson, although to be expected due to experience

but I respect clarkson for the fact that he traded thompson and the like and got quality first round picks, also not playing nick holland in his last yr etc

Brad Ottens??

There is no doubt Clarkson has made some tough calls and I credit him for that.
Terry has to make some more at the end of this year.

Taking the question seriously for a sec, to date I'd have Wallace by a street.

Your points on Clarkson's positives are valid. However, recruting/trading/drafting is only a part of the modern coach's job description. When it comes to actual coaching, Wallace is clearly superior - like by the length of the Stuart Hwy. All coaches lose to other coaches at some point,so I wouldn't think the last time the two teams met is a true reflection. But I do reckon the Zac Dawson massacre is.

Nah, Jeremy Clarkson is great if you want to have fun with cars, but I doubt he'd have much footy nous. ;D

Is that Zac Dawson thing the only thing with Clarkson you can talk about?

How about starting Roughead forward last week when everyone expected him to take an Essendon tall, Caught them off guard and he kicked 4?

Wallace left Ray Hall on Franklin when all you guys couldn't believe the decision. Instead you degrade Franklin say "he shouldn't have played on Hall", yet don't bag Wallace for doing that.

Re: should we have taken clarkson ahead of wallace?

when was clarksons contract extended to?....will he be around when the hawks are flying? personally i dont think so....i have a feeling that if clarkson and the hawks arent rapid improvers next year the heat could get really hot in the hawks nest.

lets face it when you the have Jeff running the ship anything is likely to occur.
