He was fine until he turned into spackermanis.

Ii love you Aker!

He was absolutely made a scapegoat for anything that went wrong at the bulldogs!

Weak d...........g rose trust looks like dictaor d.........n

Good onya acka

Haha Sammy calling out JB for blatant hypocrisy about being Pres of NM. Love it

Rose didnt have a good result as CEO guess the Bulldogs lost trust in him.

Typical corporate executive full of rubbish.

I love ya Akers, the only thing you did was speak your mind....now look how gay and minorities have taken over the ground. Every week in every cheers squad there is the abbo flag and the gay flag..everythign is so fucking homogenised and boring. People will walk away from the game, this is 1984, no one cares if you are black, gay or trans....humour has gone and like Sammy you have been cancelled. Lyon is a fuckhead blaring double standards while hes potting Billys wife.

Love watching CEO's squirm like that when they're met with someone like aker the energy doesn't lie

Bulldogs have always been dogs did the dirty to Montgomery and it'll never end

I reckon hawks players would disagree on this

Just a group of people banding together against a common enemy. Aker was poorly treated, and in the end, it cost the doggies. This ages definitely in Akers favour.

Rohan who? Aker was a legend and somewhat ahead of his time with the media. The way Lyon and Brayshaw interviewed here was a disgrace, amateurs at work. Get Aker back alongside the VolKano on 9 and shake up these fairies such as Darcy, Judd, Richardson who are beyond cringe.

Who is Rohan Smith

😮

Rumour has it Aker been thrown out of a number of golf clubs cos he has issues with his ability to count

Garry Lyon your an absolute flog along with Jimmy boy who destroyed North Melbourne, Aka was a champion small forward.

Gary Lyon is a joke, acting all high a mighty looked what he did to billy called him self a mate ,if I wer🎉e you Gary I would have just said nothing about trust well done Aker

Garry Lyon talks about trust when he was cheating with his mates wife... How low...

This guy was amazing AFL player

Here was a man whose intolerance of bullshit caused the end of his career. He was right about jim stynes too. Loved you acker. From a blues supporter. What are you riding now? The smiling assassin earnt his moniker.

The fact is. society is full of confomists who will throw individuals like Acka under the bus because he speaks the truth. Also where was his 3 time premiership team mate in Nathan Brown giving his opinion. Bottom line all that matters to me is can play football. The Scott brothers one time said of Acka "hes my team mate and i back him to the hilt"

As usual in Australia, the habit of tearing down the successful. It's Tall Poppy Syndrome. Jason Akermanis was a powerful and brilliant player. You can see in the interview his honesty coming forward. Shame to them all.

Surely this would never happen again, public sacking on tv, given HR and the Fair Work Commission these days

Gees that David Smorgan is a piece of work. What kind of president goes on radio and says every person to a man wanted Acker out of the club? Even if was true you can't go on radio and say it publicly. He should have sued Smorgan for workplace bullying..

Aker cops it because he stands up for himself, and doesn’t tolerate idiots too well, if you don’t conform to the systems demands this is a great example of how it is to be an individual with indivuals thoughts. Good on ya Aker, you will always be a champion ..

Gary Lyon was the big driver of panel criticism in this video. His emphasis was on honesty, and personal behaviour. What a sour irony that Lyon turned out later to despicably betray one of his mates by adultery with his wife.....and then continued in his job! Akermanis's actions and behaviour were much less of an offence than Lyon's.... but Lyon had the two faced stained moral character to call out others, but do far worse himself. I never particularly liked Jason..... but have far more respect for his playing skills and personal standards than many other persons and AFL players... Lyon, on the other hand, is an example of too many in life that I have no respect for, because of their own actions.

Just one of those guys who was brutally honest, and they hated him for it. Make no mistake he's not some dumb footballer he's a very intelligent guy. They didn't like his newspaper columns either for the same reason, it exposed them.

You know you can be a great footballer and an idiot at the same time. Jason proves it.

The start of the tall poppy syndrome on Aker

Sometimes genius doesn't fit into a neat box. So what?

The politically correct crowd again displays its hypocrisy, judging a man as guilty until proved innocent. They should pray that they never end up in a court of law with a jury of people like themselves. Leftist Lyon is the biggest hypocrite. He would do well to refrain from guilt by innuendo. His values are shaped by whatever seems popular. If there is any doubt, it is far better to let a possibly guilty man go free than to risk hanging an innocent one.

Brad Johnson, Bob Murphy are weak as piss

Cant hear a thing

It's weird watching this again. Jason Akermanis did always put his foot in his mouth but man could he play!..... What i found funny about here is that Garry Lyon is talking about "TRUST" and then he goes and has an affair with one of his close mates (Billy Brownless) wife. I believe people deserve second chances in most instances but Garry Lyons offence should have ended his media career at the very least. Is Jason Akermanis as bad as that? NO!. I hope he is doing well in his life and I hope he is doing what he always tried to do and entertain people.

What a wanker and a boring KZbin

Watching this in 2023 and seeing now that Australian Rules Football has been farked for a while now

The most SELFISH footballer that has ever played.

Leigh Mathew’s told the Brisbane team “you don’t have to like him, think of him as a consultant that wins you game of football on weekends”

Aker won more premierships in my 42 years on earth than Footscray/western bulldogs have. Aker wins

Bulldog head is a spud

Brad 'mo handball" Johnson hated aler from the start. He refused to pass to him when he was free all the time. They were never going to win anything with a selfish player like Johnson as your captain

And he absolutely flew too

Best kick on both feet i have seen. Whether it was hitting a lead or kicking a goal from 50 or spearing a low hard 50m pass he can do it either side whenever he wanted and hit the mark

The truth is that he was starting to write his autobiography and he was already disgruntled the way things were being run at the dogs, so he was taking notes. I don't know why they just couldn't come out and say it though.

AKER IS A GUN AND A HONEST PERSON....sadly people hate brutal honesty. He openly accepts his short coming and mistakes....thats a true human being

Oh! brain dead Gary Lyon ... 🤣🤣🤣 Much Respect to you Aker.

On hindsight he was right on all counts. I don’t agree with his views on homosexuality, but at the end of the day he has a right to voice them like anyone else. His line saying “well at least I’ll be remembered” might sum this entire thing up. Gary and James kept trying to get headlines, trying to push him into anger, he kept his cool and stood his ground. Stayed true to himself.

Class act and a humble man. You're a champion in my eyes Acker
