No get out clause; Richmond up for big pay out if Hardwick is sacked (H-Sun)

[Penelope]

Stuffen bunch of amateurs. Worst outcome for this club ever was when Malcolm Speed didn't replace March.

Ooh but Peggy is great for the club didn't you all know that

 

O'Neal and now Gale are 2 people on the board. The enitre board voted in favour of the contract extension.

They are all to blame.

Benny cops the biggest whack from me though, as it was his recommnedation to extend the contract

Once again you show your ignorance WP.

Peggy is not just one vote out of a an entire board.

She is an American woman.

Therefore, how the board votes is all down to her.

Some of us have known for several years that this day would come. I began withholding my membership money in 2013. Anyone who stumps up with their cash after witnessing the ineptitude of this club and having suffered the blaming from it's staff (who you pay)..... is an idiot.

some of us are Members & will keep being members as that is what real supporters do!!!

And how is that working for you?.....or the club for that matter. In business there would be severe and justified ramifications for this scenario. But hey, it's your money.

Soon it will be time to drink the cool aid and reunite w the mothership

Or is Richmond 'too big to fail'

It might be a capitalism/democracy (WPs legal eagle will confirm) but the taxpayers can still go all commie and ball out the big dogs 

[Penelope]

pretty sure the mothership was a victim of collateral damage in the Alien V Predator battle

This fundamentalists sound  a lot like like Jonestown cult / essendon fans

It's good to support the club but the nutters are running the madhouse

On such matters I bow to your wealth of experience

Well WP, you tried to tell me the club wouldnt be stupid enough to not have a get our clause a couple of months ago and would 'back it in'. Called me naive too IIRC.

I told you the club would be stupid enough. This was met with much disdain, and further, would appear to have formed part of your basis to criticise my disproportionate amount of negative posts.

Perhaps a lesson in keeping ones mind open.

Lol the right track.

Surely they are smart enough to put a clause in to a proven finals failure  coach about performance.

Details for the members please.

Seriously, Dooks are you that naive to think they haven't?

I get that it doesn't suit a purpose to assume they haven't but it is more likely than unlikely that they have got performance clauses. Actually I'd back it in

And do you really think a board is going to tell us the full details of an employment contract? No board is going to do that and nor should they

You don't know any of that. Are you that naive to think they have?

You'd back it in others wouldn't.  The club has a history (recent) of stunning decisions,  you can give them the benefit of the doubt. Not me.

I don't think anyone here knows what Hardwick's contract states so I can't see how anyone can claim they are right or wrong.

In the old days, they would have just cut his dog's head off and had the resignation in the morning.

I don't think anyone here knows what Hardwick's contract states so I can't see how anyone can claim they are right or wrong.

But if you think they dont have a get out clause you are naive.

Lmao

Well, I think WP is coming from a position of logic.

All contracts stipulate what is expected from the individual that signs it. An AFL coach would certainly have more than "you will coach the team" written in his contract. He would have minimum KPIs stipulated. I think this is the "get out clause". If he doesn't meet his KPI's then that would allow the employer to trigger a dismissal. Now the contract would also state a minimum payout for such a dismissal too.

So, in reality, he probably has a get out clause but it would still cost the club in a payment. The payment would not be his full wage for the rest of his contract.

This is would be the most logical way of looking at the situation we have.
