Veteran journalist Caroline Wilson has defended her bombshell report that incoming Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell made it clear in a “mediation meeting” last week that he wanted “clean air” in 2022 without Alastair Clarkson by his side.

Asked directly by Gerard Whateley on SEN’s Whateley if he wanted Clarkson gone next season so he could assume coaching duties a year earlier than planned, Mitchell said: “Absolutely not.

Wilson also hit out at Mitchell for emphatically declaring he wants to coach alongside Clarkson next year, stating he “should be very careful about what he says about his premiership coach”.

“What I did say was that people left that meeting with the impression that Sam Mitchell would rather be the senior coach next year.

And I‘m sorry, but it is not Sam’s 100 per cent desire to coach in tandem with Alastair Clarkson next year,” Wilson said.

“It might be today, after meetings have been held since that meeting, and I might add, some of those meetings have been held without Alastair Clarkson present, which would not normally happen.

“Sam should be very careful about what he says about his premiership coach, as I’m hearing back that he’s been saying to people at that football club...

He said that the silence from the four-time premiership coach is “deafening”.
