We know Mrs Hardwick doesn’t cut premiership coach Damien Hardwick too much slack and it appears the other women of the household are following suit.
The Richmond coach has jokingly mentioned his wife’s input at press conferences in recent years and he’s now filmed a video to show the influence his daughters are having.
Hardwick took the club’s media team through his house and explained how he’s had to sacrifice his home office because of the coronavirus and make some other arrangements.
The Tigers then posted the video on Twitter:

It starts with the two-time premiership mentor sitting at his desk with a large screen TV above him and printer to the side before moving to his new digs.
“My daughter who is studying at Uni and my youngest daughter who is doing Year 12 have invaded my study area so now we have had to make do with something else,” Hardwick says.
“My new study set-up, which is a little different, is in the walk-in robe.”
The camera then reveals a tiny desk and chair shoved in the back of the wardrobe with several shelves full of football books.

There is some method to this madness with Hardwick explaining it’s the only place he can hide away from the music which has become a problem in the packed house.
“I’ve got this very tiny workplace which allows me to have a little peace and quiet because I’m sick of the sound of The Chainsmokers and Post Malone,” he says.
“I like a bit of Metallica and Guns N’ Roses, that is my music of choice so I’ve had to move into this little closest space here.”

DID an off-duty reporter spoil a rival TV network’s major exclusive after innocently pulling into the same service station and then quickly pressing record on their iPhone when they saw the cameras rolling?
