Not in a public place.

Never had a conversation like that with anyone in a public place. It lacks empathy for the individual receiving the news.
At one stage I employed 130 staff.
Took plenty out of the work place to have hard conversations. They can then go away and digest the information/feedback without the embarrassment of having to deal with it at work with other staff around.
Think everyone is reading too much into this

Yes hence the connections in the past.

Octa Wilson must be pushing 90 these days

Lost contact some years ago but he still chain smoked and must of been pushing 80 some 10 or so years back.

Ian was a a great guy to chat with but i definitely wouldnt trust him in business or doing deals.

You can bet if it was done in the office the line on here would be "cheap bastards didn't even take him out to lunch to knife him".

Having worked in corporate for years now it's pretty standard to have hard convos over a coffee.

I reckon Gale gives the skinny to Caroline Wilson. Richmond fans will remember the awesome PR job she did on the Alex Rance to go on mission crisis. (2016?) Her work, her diplomacy was world class. Her work was clearly PR for the club.

None of the Wilson family is from the working class, that is for sure.
Caro went to MGGS Merton Hall, the elite girls' school in Melbourne.
Makes me laugh how these poseurs trade on a working-class background.
