Now I might be the only person who thinks this, but I don't see what Bevo did was wrong. He called out a grub, who through other means was proven that he was a grub, therore (I believe) Bevo was justified in what he said.
Only one comment in the transcript is personal towards the journalist (I refuse to name him anymore), the rest relates to they way he did his job. Yet every comment from Carro, Hutchy, Lyon et al. is personal. "Lose the mustache" ... "Show some respect" ... "Unprofessional" ... "No scruples".
Why is there a double standard here? And why are we (as supporters) not backing our coach? I agree with a post earlier on in this thread ... the difference between Melbourne's defense of their coach and ours is light-years away.
