    On a serious note, it does look at our list under Bevo and explains quite a bit.

    Anyhow, posted it up for interest.

    It gives insight into media bias and how they do no research and spin everything even though facts prove the opposite.

    I just don't care about VolKANO or any of the media dopes and the club should do the same.

    But the club has to as it turns away fans , members etc it damages the brand.
    If you’re trying to recruit members the last thing you want is bad media, especially if it’s not true.

    I don't agree but get your point.

    We have record membership coming next week.

    Journos peddle in stories, they are not prophets. The President of a Club's declaration that the coach has the full backing of the Board is the kiss of death. Let's see which way Watson-Wheeler's message to members swings. I was against the sacking of Rocket, I'm against that of Bev.

    Thanks for posting this. It is so worth watching for the analysis on the criticisms of Bevo and the club. (There is a certain guilty enjoyment in seeing Cornes put down as well.)

    There are so many facets ignored in the 'sack the coach' garbage that is going on with Bevo. This video makes clear a lot of reasons why you would definitely want to keep him. By this guy's analysis, it seems Hardwick is the only current coach that could quote a better record than Bevo.

    He also debunks the Cornes' claim that we have such a good list that the coach must be under-performing and shows what is behind Cornes' insanity.

    The media types maintain that media pressure is not what causes coaches to get the sack, but the resulting pressure and wailing of dissatisfied supporters that bring the club to sack the coach.

    I hope that our supporters will get behind the club and Bevo and not give the media types with an agenda any more ammunition.

    For us to lose our greatest ever coach through media pressure and weak-minded supporters would be the equivalent of the Melbourne football club sacking Norm Smith the year after his fifth premiership and.. surprise.. surprise.. not getting near another premiership for sixty years until Josh Bruce's ACL gifted them one!

    The world's changed, people don't want truth or facts they want something to stop scrolling to that goes for about 30 seconds.

    Re: Cornes in The Age: The damning signs that show Beveridge is steering the Dogs off course

    I watched the video in the background throughout today and I don't think people should be labelled as dickhead obsessed for trying to figure out whether they're being gas-lit day by day. The Bevo targeting has caught on in the general public and I'm sick of having to ask people not to talk to me about it, and I don't hang around footy mad people much of the time.

    The analysis was sound, if maybe a bit too forgiving to Beveridge, the club and the players at times, but the contrast between Hinkley's treatment in the media and Beveridge's and the latter's record was laid bare. And honestly, it's nice to see someone go to the effort to make the points made on behalf of us who think the hysteria over our coach is unbearable and frankly, ridiculous.

    Telling was the piece around our stacked list, versus others. Since 2020 we've registered five AA players, Power have eight. It's acknowledged we don't have a backline, nor do we have medium and small specialist forwards - stuff some of us have been pointing to for years now (especially the fact Cody kicked thirty odd last year, with the next best West with seven - Brisbane had three small forwards sharing 115 goals!).

    It's also acknowledged that throughout dickhead's campaign to run down the Bulldogs since 2020, particularly leading up to the 2021 finals series, our coach's record in making and winning grand finals is in the top few in the league, where as Hinkley's is in the bottom few.

    So while the video won't make a difference in the grand scheme of things, and nor to dickhead himself, it's just nice being empathised with in the middle of an unrelenting pile on.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    That's it right there. I mean he doesn't upset me now because I know what he's trying to do, get clicks and attention. I am starting to agree with what he has to say at times about our club though but I'm just a "weak-minded supporter"
