Future Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell has strongly denied reports he wants Alastair Clarkson to depart the club a year earlier than agreed to in the succession plan.
It was reported earlier in the week by Caroline Wilson on
Footy Classified that Mitchellâs preference was to take the head coaching role in 2022 rather than 2023, while Clarkson was set to dig his heels in and stick around.
Speaking on
SENâs Whateley, Mitchell admitted the last few weeks have been âquite the baptism of fireâ.
However, he strongly denied the reports and provided detail on the succession plan and stepping away from the Collingwood coaching search.
