Cornes couldn't keep the smile off his face, what a disgrace, have some respect you idiot.
I find it amazing that the same group of people who I believe led to his resignation are now pointing fingers at the AFL for not putting more money forward – Caroline Wilson and Kane Cornes have absolutely given it to this bloke in the last 12 mths – 2 yrs. The Media really have to have a good look at themselves. Obviously the hints that Ken Hinkley made a few weeks ago have fallen on deaf ears – deaf ears because negative opinions sell. With not many exemptions – I personally believe you all suck and have played a huge part in his mental demise. PLEA TO CAROLINE AND KANE – PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTHS ARE AND GO COACH A TEAM!!!
Get him to Essendon ASAP.
I think Josh Carr would be a chance
Caro wouldnt bloody know anything about footy!
Hinkley is a dud
He should have a stutue made and be outside the tiger's HQ
Where will he coach next? I'm tipping
CARLTON
People in the comments confusing being toxic with being critical of someone in a public position at a large football club. Just because he's had burnout from coaching doesn't mean he's not allowed to be criticised for some trade actions he's made. If you think reporting on the departure of Damien is harassment then you should never get a job in public entertainment or reporting business. Wish him all the best in his future career.
Every West Coast supporter right now: ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Someone in the comments said "2 coaches walked away from the game for mental issues caused by the likes of this panel!" which is wrong by all accounts. I assume they're referring to Damien and Alastair. 1) If you listened to what Damien said in the press conference this morning you'll know that this wasn't the reason so I'm not sure where you got the notion that he is quitting because of journalists? 2) Alastair quit as a result of the pressure of coaching and dealing with the hawthorn racism investigation which was commissioned by the AFL themselves. Journalists reporting on this has nothing to do with this.
We're due for a good solid strike from the coaches and possibly even the players. The AFL players have one of, if not the lowest revenue share of the major sporting leagues worldwide. The coaches are underpaid and we have some of the most greedy overpaid administrators of any sport. I think the NBA players have 50+% revenue share. The AFL is about 25%.
Yeah yeah Wilsonโฆ heโll fail if he does undertake to coach any team above under 15โs!
It takes a lot of unheralded support to achieve what Richmond did while Damian was head coach!
Alistair proved a subsequent failure when he started to believe his own publicity in taking on another senior coaching role.
Lucky Clarkson chose the hapless Rooโs!
Will he take over from Lyon at Stkilda after all Lyon has been there almost a year๐ ?
they get paid a truckload of money to do what they love. pressure and criticism or not. more reality.
If they were 7-3 and in top 4, he wouldn't have gone anywhere. He knows Richmond are done, he will be at the Suns or maybe Port.
Kane, king of the low-hanging fruit and the best captain F'king obvious in the business. His commentary is getting so predictable and tiresome.
In an alternate universe, is there a positive version of this show?
seriously wtf is going on in footy now days, in the EPL coaches get sacked after winning the league, professional level is cut throat, what part of that don't this footy heads see
seriously footy is such a downer of a sport, so negative.
Hawthorn moved Clarko on in 2021 and got Mitchell in as coach
Caro: "DISGRACEFUL!! SHAMBOLIC!! THIS WILL BACKFIRE ON THEM!!"
Hardwick resigns as Tigers coach
Caro: "Glad he didn't stay too long like Clarkson did at Hawthorn."
My god, she is a piece of work… Shameless.๐คฃ
Come on guys show dimma and the tigers so respect one of the best coaches dimma one 3 flags. We should be acknowledging his achievements and what heโs done for our game. And how heโs created great coaches (Craig mcrae). We love you dimma thanks for everything ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ค.
Pretty much every time Lloyd has opened his mouth about Hardwick since 2016 or so, he has been wrong. Easy to take pot shots from the cheap seats. Just shut up.
Didnโt realise there are so many snowflakes in the comments annoyed by sports media talking about a sports news story. Next theyโre going to get annoyed when weather forecast reporters start talking about weather forecasts.
Why do people watch this show or click on these vids if they hate the show? Just cut out afl media you donโt like. Itโs not hard
Clarko's best mate….Coincidence? I think not….. Well done Dill the Gill & the aFL….Great job on the botched racism investigation, you contemptible boys-club clowns.
Damien at Carlton. Deal done.
These vultures won't be happy till there's no AFL left
Caroโs bias is showing. Richmond can do no wrong in her eyes
Legend Dimma. You will be missed. ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐
Caro you pushed him to do this the media dimma every night on every afl show he should leave the tigers cornes riding dimma all year
Dreamtime at the G was the last big event on the calendar for Richmond this year. They're not likely playing finals either, so my guess is that this was the point in the season Dimma would reassess his future.And though they didn't win, what a special game to go out on before the media come after him for their pound of flesh.
