      In my experience with employing people, people changing roles every two years in an industry that is specialised are generally running from something, running from getting found out. What IP was Lade going to bring from the Saints? We were desperate to improve our defensive set up after last year and I'm not sure he would have added much to this.

      One thing we know now is the club didn't make enough changes after the internal review and to know that Brendon possibly hasn't fitted in well then we have wasted a summer there is no doubt about it.

        "My understanding is that Luke Beveridge was happy to keep Rohan Smith."

        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.

          Bevo would keep lunch in the work fridge he forgot to eat over the preseason. He won?t let anything go. So hardly surprising.

          Maybe the club bosses has finally awoke to the fact they have responsibility for the hiring and firing?

          P.S. haven’t spoken to Bevo after she went him over the Talia affair, I find it extremely difficult to believe she knows anything about what Bevo thinks. Even second hand. Or tenth hand.

            There is real bitterness and even hatred in Caro's narrative in particular. It does appear that some of what she is saying has merit. Not disputing that. But gee whiz, she is running a vendetta against Bevo.

              "A lot coaches have left" Caro.

              "The trend up until know is that we know some of those have been fallings out" - Caro

              "Coaches have not just been happy working with Luke Beveridge" - Caro

              "I just think that there is a move and it comes from the Board led by Ameet Baines and his team that they need to change the narrative around the football club, that this is now a club run by the coach" - Caro

              mmm for so many falling outs, gee whiz there were coaches who were happy to work with Bevo for many, many, may years.

                I would discuss the convo I had with Bevo about Caro and her reporting on all the Talia stuff (way back) but won’t fully detail it. I don’t think Bevo would ever forgive her and I think/guess Caro would resent Bevo for blocking her out. I suspect it’s still deeply personal after all this time. For any of my criticism of Bevo, I think he’s right to keep her in the freezer even if it means she appears personally motivated at times to go after him. But that’s life.

                    Yes. You live by the sword. You die by the sword.

                    It does remind me of Malthouse. There were a number of journalists who absolutely despised him. While he was winning and going well they patiently waited, when the tide turned they all lined up to whack him and whack him hard. When things went bad at Carlton they came from everywhere to hit him.

                      Don't forget the first person Caro had on her new podcast at the start of the year was Tom Morris, an old buddy of hers.

                      MSM has alot to answer for coming up with things that put ideas into people's minds, whether true or false.

                        It’s pretty much all opinion and not need anymore. Would be good if most understood this. News is dying. Media is about making money and opinions do that in the click bait world. But what are you gunna do, be like me and consume virtually none of it.

                            You're questioning Caro's integrity and her standards rather than challenging the content of what she has said.
                            I don't think what she has said was negative towards Bevo or the club. Do you?

                              Speaking of true or false Caro's podcast has been around for a number of years.
