[2] Hypocrisy: Clarkson, Hodge and many others are total hypocrites. I was at the game many years ago when both Buddy and Fev were going for their 100th goal of the season. Buddy got his early: we couldn't stop Hawthorn at the time. However, as the game went on, Fev got closer and closer, up to 99 at 3/4 time. Hawthorn then did everything they could to stop Fev getting that final goal, including playing 5 men on him. Naturally Fev fell short, although a number of very cheap goals managed to be scored by us during the quarter.
Clarkson, Hodge and others then came out of separate occasions to state that it was pity that Fev didn't get his 100, that they did not try extra hard to stop him getting the goal and that they would be happy to see it happen.
What bald faced lies they uttered.
It doesn't bother me that they were so competitive that they felt they had to defend every goal. I can understand that. But to come out publically and to try to rewrite history with them in the role of good guy was ridiculous. I cannot believe any of them could honestly have believed that trash having seem them play
As has been said, Clarkson dropped 7!!! Players back on to Fev to ensure he didn't get his 100. It had nothing to do with them not wanting the crowd to rush the ground at all, Clarkson is just a cunt. Had he played fair Fev would've gotten his 100 And there could've been a double celebration and the game would be talked about now still for fair sportsmanship and two of the big time forwards getting their 100 at the same time. Instead Clarksons bloody attitude of fuck everyone and don't care who you trample on to get what you want mean the game is really only remembered by both supporters for buddy and by Carlton supporters as showing that Clarkson was a ruthless small small Man.
Clarkson is a bad sport and just a cunt of a guy. End of discussion.
