Hardwick: Triple M ban has 'served its purpose'Jon PierikThe Age25 June 2016Richmond coach Damien Hardwick says a club boycott of radio station Triple M has "probably served its purpose", and it appears likely to only be a one-week ban.Tigers forward Jack Riewoldt instigated the move for he and his teammates to refuse to be interviewed by the network during its pre and post-match coverage of Saturday's clash against the Brisbane Lions at the MCG.The boycott came in the wake of an on-air discussion between Collingwood president Eddie McGuire, North Melbourne counterpart and Triple M caller James Brayshaw and special comments man Danny Frawley, where they made derogatory comments about The Age's chief football reporter, Caroline Wilson, joking about holding her under water as part of a fundraiser for MND research.Hardwick said on Friday that the Tigers stood by their decision."It was a club decision. We stand by that decision but we are looking forward to moving on this week," he said.He said the Tigers would continue to "monitor" whether the ban extended into a second week but admitted "it has probably served its purpose".http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/richmond-v-brisbane-triple-m-ban-has-served-its-purpose-say-tigers-20160624-gprc0l.html
