Re: Luke Beveridge ...

And we were winning! Imagine how he was tracking halfway through the 3rd and his busted hand was no good for bashing out the frustration?!

I guess we aren't the only ones frustrated by the players not performing

Re: Luke Beveridge ...

I must say I didn't like Bevo's post match chat with the players but obviously he knows the cameras are on and it is a different era. That second quarter was a disgrace, I hope his hand is ok but there needed to be some fire considering what was on the line.

We gave up a late goal and went in behind at half time.

Re: Luke Beveridge ...

Channel 7 reporting Bevo broke his hand at half time of the swans game when he punched the whiteboard!

I believe it was the reason he wasn't at the East West club dinner.

What a clown. Seriously, if this was an opposition coach our supporters would be all over it but because it's Bevo it's justified. Idiotic outburst from our coach.

Seems the pressure is certainly getting to Bevo, but can’t say I blame him for getting frustrated with our 2nd term… and the inconsistency within our game.

Sure he is the front man, and has to take on a fair bit of the blame, but the difference in the 1st and 2nd qtr was vast, and not all of that comes down to coaching.

Still doesn't justify it. If it were a player showing frustration like that they would likely miss the rest of the season due to injury. I bet we wouldn't be as forgiving. No free passes from me, stupid action on his behalf.

You think coaches don’t get frustrated and lose their shit on occasions? Not the outcome that would be expected if you whacked something, but shit happens.

Of course they do, doesn't mean he should be punching walls. I'd rather he just yell at the players and give them a dressing down but you can't do that with the current generation.

So you'd prefer him to verbalise the players rather than take out frustration on an inanimate object? I don't know whether you've still got the high ground on this one!

It could have been relatively innocuous and still ended this way.

Yes, you don't want players taken into account if they made critical errors? You think punching a wall and breaking your hand is a better outcome? It's idiotic and an ordinary look.

My posting history would suggest I'm all for players being held to account. I'm just saying that slamming a fist into a whiteboard during an address is something that happens all over the country in football games at all sorts of levels, and he may have just gotten a bit overzealous with it and paid the price.

Shows how much he cares though and how like many supporters feel frustrated with a close loss.

Yeah, probably just side fisted it to make a point and got the wrong spot.

Did you or anyone else feel the same way when Brendan Goddard knocked the teams lollies off the table.
