The trouble is, it is a news paper hacks job to use a bit of fact with a lot of guesswork to make a story sensationalist to sell papers so doesn't have to be all true. Only Hardwick knows the truth and he is not saying too much so that wont sell a newspaper. This is not the first ever workplace romance but as long as Hardwick keeps his head down and continues to our club to continued success we should keep away from the media which hunt
A few days later I'm still not sure if I think this will affect us or not. Whether it fits with the values this team's success was built on is an obvious question. All it takes is a couple of players to tire of the coach's voice just a little bit and things could go bad. In a perfect world it may not be anyone else's business but the players aren't robots. He demands more of someone or gives them a bake and this is in the back of their mind, perhaps they mutter something under their breath...
Personally I'd be lying if I said I still look at him exactly the same way I did a couple of months ago. Once I would've said WWDD (What would Dimma do?) would be a decent template to live one's life by but not so much now. Granted we don't know the full story or what happened when but the timeline certainly doesn't look great.
On the other hand obviously the players are playing for a lot of people other than the coach. Plus all the mindfulness stuff they've been doing about compartmentalising things and setting them aside and just focusing on the next contest. And then there's the possibility that they just don't really care.
Best case scenario I reckon is if it has been known about for quite a while as some people say. In that case it's obviously been dealt with and it clearly hasn't affected us, which just goes to show how professional the group (i.e. the players - learned largely under Dimma's tutelage) are.
Time will tell.

*smile* day for news.
The article just repeats itself in every paragraph.
Who gives a *smile* that the bloke has a good job, he might be a *smile*.
Who gives a *smile* he bought a 1.2 milion dollar house, he still may be a *smile*.
Who gives a *smile* that Carlton people like him?
Article is utter baggage

"The Daily Mail" is the ultimate trash media, this is thier wheelhouse
As much as we love Dimma “the coach”, you can’t hide from the fact that if he has cheated on his wife, he’s a dog of a bloke.
People are just being silly now. There was one "other" woman (as in one woman apart from his ex wife) and while Peggy and/or Benny and/or some of the players may not have been thrilled he hasn't been sacked and at this stage he's not gonna be. I'll be staggered if we find out otherwise.
Gawd help us, world's gone barking mad. There'd be millions of dogs out there. Might surprise ya Frangers but there's plenty of wimmen get a bit on the side as well.
TBR, you’re implying the Richmond hierarchy knew of this for the better part of two years.
Well, against the fact we have been told the matter was considered at Board level late 2020, your belief or supposition calls into quest the Club’s corporate governance.

Nice to have our glory days back at the Tigers!
Are we paying him to be a saint or a coach FFS! How do we know his missus wasn't hard work? He who has not sinned can cast the first stone.
Third coach wife split according to News.com. But they are choosing not to name him.
Since when did the journos become so sensitive to impact of naming people?

Nah, they won't invade peoples privacy unless it has Richmond attached to it.
Now get back into lockdown
Must be from one of those little clubs.
Not news worthy.
I’m starting to get worried by some of the texts I’m getting from so many people and some whose mail is usually pretty good.
The club has serious form in relation to imposing their views/morals/opinions on their customers (us), with their overdoing of the woke stuff on many who just want to barrack for a football club and not get involved in politics.
So it wouldn’t surprise to see them pressure an employee (coach) out of the place because he’s done something they don’t like. I hope not, would be a serious overstep and could be the undoing of a great era.

On flipboard, apparently Simon Goodwin and his wife Maggi have split after 15 years.
