Alastair Clarkson owns Hutchy. Did he cry?

(Note if you don’t see the video, click the title to go to the original article)

Famously last year Alastair Clarkson had a run in with Craig Hutchinson after his interview on Footy Classified. Monday night, AC was back again and this time he owned Hutchy on air!

Alastair Clarkson in the hot seat

March 31, 2008: Alastair Clarkson, the Hawthorn coach talks to the panel about his flying start to the season.

Hutchy starts off trying to get Clarko to say that Buddy is a handful when he isn’t! Then he does his best to stir up trouble in true Hutchy style! He asks AC if he is worried about the fact that he hasn’t been resigned yet. AC returns that its not an issue and that it will happen when the time is right. Hutchy tries again and AC tells him to take a chill pill!

The funniest thing about this is that Hutchy (and the rest of the media to be fair) tried this same story 2 years ago when AC was in the last year of his first contract. At that time Hutchy got owned by Jeff Kennett who said that they would look at his contract at the middle of the year. Hutchy for one attacked and attacked but Jeff and Clarko continued the point that it would be looked at in the middle of the year. Surprise, Surprise (only to the media and Hutchy), the middle of the year came and AC was resigned (even though after 4 wins out of 5 to start the season, the Hawks where on a losing streak).

AC has coached the Hawks to 5th last year and 2 impressive wins to start the year. I think it is fair to believe that the Hawks will resign Clarko when the time is right!

Hutchy, if your going to try and drum up controversy, how about trying to make it current controversy not rehashed failed version from two years ago!
