Re: Sharp Axes

Bit of a laughing stock to do a review after a review.

We would complete reviews after every season. Some are more in-depth and more important than others.

Re: Sharp Axes

But how much of the list and team selection is Bevo?s to own. To blame the list and the selected players when you?ve been the senior coach is indigestible to me. Is he blaming the recruiting, the trading, the selection panel and the players but none of it is his fault?

I think Bevo has a big say on list management and selection. I think he has a big say in everything actually. Maybe thats the problem.

I'm just coming at it from a 'they ain't going to sack Bevo and pay him out his two years' angle.

Each club woukd review their years, but the level of detail of last year's review / this year's impending review would be of a far more detailed and investigative nature.

That we actually need to do another thorough review after that's what we supposedly did last year is a blight on the administration of the football club.

"There is a feeling Bevo’s message has been inconsistent or confusing for players as he tries to frantically turn the season around. Major changes still possible but it would be to get the best out of him rather than move him on after Rohan Smith was pushed out as the first domino"

"I hear there is disaffected players this year, we know what happened with Dunkley last year, we are not sure what Bailey Smiths future is, we don' know how Adam Treloar is feeling, will Tim English accept a big offer to go and play for the West Coast and a general dissatisfaction with the lack of cohesion and consistency in form and selection. Thank heavens Bevo has Marcus Bontempelli who has been his great leader and supporter throughout all of this."

So Caro wants my mega three club trade between WCE & GCS after Pick 10 for Smith too.

Re: Sharp Axes

We don't know how Adam Treloar is feeling.

So don't say it muck racker!

"Dunkley was the big one who left, he seemed to represent the divide between the good guys and the bad guys"

What does that mean? Are the Bulldogs like a Marvel Movie. Does she mean bad characters and good characters?

Poorly put together by a Disney executive?

Re: Sharp Axes

The whole piece doesn't really tell us anything. Speculation. Maybe a little inside gossip.

Kane's view that Bevo has been a poor ambassador I don't cop. He has had a few moments he would like to take back and a few things that Bulldog fans have enjoyed that Kane hasn't (like when Bevo targeted him directly after Kane went after Treloar after the Brisbane final and then he bounced back the next week against Port and Bevo had a pot shot at Kane after the game.)

It is really personal with Kane and his double standard with Hinkley who has coached longer than Bevo without ever getting Port to a GF and has had less finals appearances is hypocrisy at scale.

(I know, I know, I need to remember he is just playing the heel as always).

Re: Sharp Axes

If we somehow win vs Cats and maybe win an elimination final I’m really worried the thorough review with external eyes and subsequent changes that are required to make us real challengers in the shortest realistic timeframe will be half baked at best.me.

I want Bain’s or KWW to come out publicly straight asap or at latest after our season is over and say we commit to a thorough on & off field review no matter what.

What if they already know what is wrong but by the time last year's review was completed many of the changes were too late to enact?

With the assistant coach re-signing deadline in early August or whenever it is (it's well before the season ends) a review post season won't leave you with the appropriate time to source alternatives. A review that starts in September and concludes within a month and a half or two months with respect to being ratified by the board leaves the club exposed to missing the boat on any recruitment and footy department changes that immediately need to happen.

She wouldn't even know where the West Gate Bridge is, let alone what is happening at the kennel.
