Brisbane Lions coach Chris Fagan remains determined to speak out and 'tell his truth' despite mediation in the AFL's investigation into Hawthorn's racism saga no longer being an option.
Fagan, 61, has categorically denied all historic allegations of mistreatment of First Nations players during his time at the Hawks.
He was named alongside Alastair Clarkson and former player development manager Jason Burt in an explosive report last September in the lead up to the AFL Grand Final.
While Fagan - who was employed by Hawthorn from 2008-2016 before taking over as head coach of the Lions in 2017, won't be involved in a mediation session, he still plans on speaking publicly regarding the allegations.
'There are a lot of stories – I don't know what ones are true and what ones aren't,' he said.
