SEN Breakfast · Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell (21.09.26) · 20 Sep 2026 podcast

This is not the end of our journey.

We need to be back and we need to be better than we are right now again.

must admit, I didn't see that at all.

I hadn't seen that or heard about that at all until I just saw the bottle.

On the ground, there was a lot of debris, I guess you would call it.

So I hadn't seen any of that.

I assume that was all happening while we were coming back down from the coach's box.

No, I wasn't across that.

I read a story about a

a young eight-year-old who had, you know, nachos thrown at them in the footy.

And I think one of the great things, I'll be on record about this regularly, saying how good is Aussie rules footy that you can just take anyone, you can sit anywhere, you can feel safe all the time.

And I think we lost that for a moment after the game.

And, you know, I don't think that's ever what anyone wants.

So making sure that we behave appropriately, which goes to our players as well, and going towards umpires after games, I don't think is appropriate behaviour either.

Yeah, we caught up yesterday.

Box Hill had a great win in their grand final yesterday, so we all sat and watched that and certainly caught up with those boys and chatted through it.

So they'll work through the fines and all the things that they have to do at their end, but I think they knew that the emotions got well and truly the better of them at that moment.

I'm not going to get into that.

I agree with your second point, David.

I think the umpires have got an enormously difficult job and I go and watch my kids play sport and I think that the way people treat umpires is very, very important all the way through from junior footy, junior sports all the way into the ASL and we have to set a very high bar for what we accept in that area.
