    Why would he be? He’s safe as houses, has all the time in the world.

    I thought Bevo represented himself and the club very well. He came across as someone who was confident in his ability and with a solid understanding of where the club is at in this current evolution.

    Hopefully we can be competitive in this next stretch of games, win a few and silence some of the critics.

    He always says that there are three things that get you.

    1. Media. Outside noise. It can become too much. If it gets to that, just tell me. We are not there at the moment.

    2. Bevo can do something wrong. A sackable offence. He will be sacked.

    3. You lose the playing group. He doesn't believe he will ever lose the playing group. That won't happen.
    Did you play evolution bingo?

    The most impressive thing for me is that the bloody rockstar wore Birkenstocks on live tv.

    I almost vomited thinking they put him on live TV with no shoes on, and then I virtually vomited again when I realised they put him on live TV in Berks.

    The last time I saw anything as crazy as that was when Alastair Clarkson wore shorts on "On the Couch" when he'd just taken over the Hawks.

    Probably had his wetsuit on underneath the polo and chinos.

    Where does a poor W/L record and not getting the best out of a group fit in here?

    Is that just not a thing for Bevo?

    It plays a big part in the assessment but at the moment waiting until the end of the season seems okay to me rather than just making a change.

    We now know what the reviews were.
    To refresh the list a little and change tact, new assistants new ideas would help that, Beveridge was still seen as the coach to do it.
    I believe there is a set plan within the club and they are all on board, they know there might be hiccups.
    I’ve also seen little snippets of the VFLW and AFLW sides being merged as a one team, all in it together mentality and we all know how bad our women’s program has been the last few years.
    Check out our VFLW results and our VFL results, something is a foot and it looks extremely positive.
    This could be our Brendan Gale Richmond moment, time will tell.

    In the way Bevo described number 2 it didn't feel like being at the helm of a under performing team was in that category.

    I'm ok with that too... for me it is as simple as we need to make the finals and perform in them for him to stay on. Having 3 BOG average years in a row after our GF year simply isn't good enough.

    A huge 5 weeks coming up for Bevo.
