I watched the segment very early this morning and didn't see anything wrong with it.
I don't buy the story that the board sacked Rohan to show that they're in charge. If that were the case Bevo's mate Spangher would have been given the flick not a 300 game legend at the club.

I watched it last night and I didn't see anything sinister in it.

ok, first guest for the year. I don't listen to her at all. Sick of the BS of these footy shows.

Caroline Wilson believes the Bulldogs' call to not offer a club legend another deal went against its senior coach's wishes, in a 'significant shift' at the kennel.

I don't think what she has said was negative towards Bevo or the club. Do you?
Yes I am questioning her integrity, because she is off the mark here regarding Rohan.

Do you know that for a fact?
I suspect she's actually not far off the mark at all, the devil is in the detail of what she said.

From what I have been told, but maybe yes Bevo wanted to still employ him, but the way she puts it to sound like a riff between him and the club is just plain sensationalism. I don't like that sort of journalism. That is where her integrity is questionable.

Hey BAD - I'm probably like you and think the worst where she is concerned but I don't think this was anti-Bevo or anti-club. I think what she is trying to say is that whilst Bevo has been the dominant footy person at the club since the departure of Lowe and there are some challenges to that status right now.
I mean, I guess you could say that is anti-Bevo but I'm not sure...it's just pointing out that there is a bit of a shift in the power balance at the footy club.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

I think that started after the Morris incident.

I just get sick of stupid and unnecessary commentary from these people.

She contacted the club and they declined to comment so I think she has done her due diligence.

mmm for so many falling outs, gee whiz there were coaches who were happy to work with Bevo for many, many, may years.
By hook or by crook Caro will get Bevo sacked if it's the last thing she does. She can smell a bone a mile away.
She's only just getting started.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

She contacted the club they didn’t respond so she makes up her own story .

Re: Assistant Coaches
They showed that eight coaches in nine seasons have left the club and they're using that as a lever to propagate Bevo being difficult to work with. Albeit admitting some left for opportunity.
We all think we've kept coaches too long! It's really amazing stuff.
Bevo - very emotional about losing a club legend.
I've heard......not confirmed.
Close losses means the coach is bad.
I really hope the panic merchant mentality that's infecting the supporter base driven by this bullshit in the media doesn't stick. Well I'm not that hopeful.
The only thing that gives me some sense of calm about our administration is they're weathered corporatists that have to present and be accountable to shit numbers and results from time to time, and should know that calm instead of chaos is the way to deal with it.
If the club responds in the emphatic reactionary way the media is goading it towards I'll be really disappointed.

Re: Assistant Coaches
The information asymmetry is so stark between what we as supporters are able to experience, and the difference between us and the media is almost the same.
People at the club literally live and breath the information day by day, hour by hour and minute by minute and it's because of that versus what we have I just can't buy into this bullshit.
I understand that as observers we can only interpret what is put in front of us, but that should calm us rather than make us rabid. And that's not to say we should just sit by and suck it up, but at the same time buying into this shit doesn't do anyone any favours.

Re: Assistant Coaches
That show is all negative . I’ve never seen Caro bring a positive story .
It’s all about making up rumours because (sadly ) most people love a disaster story.
The segment Caros arrow pretty much sums it all up . I’m going to pot someone or a club every week.
Mental health is furthest from these degenerate minds as you could ever get.
