Re: Luke Beveridge the new Western Bulldogs coach

Let's just hope he isn't sent to the gallows after a few loses .
Particularly on that other website.

Agree RM. You can't judge him after a few losses.
Which website

Re: Luke Beveridge the new Western Bulldogs coach

Will Montgomery stay ??? The guy who beat him for the job is now his boss ... Can be a difficult situation.

I too wish Bev well; I hope your fate isn't set in stone like your predecessor (never given a chance IMO)

I suppose it depends on Monty's attitude, On CV Bevo has it all over him in senior coaching. As in Bevo has coached his own team and won finals. It may have helped Monty if he had been in Maples shoes and had a VFL final under his belt.

Both are untried so equal type of risk but as I said above one has more runs on the board and Monty should see this.

I agree on BMc I would have stuck with him until his contract was up to see if he could work on his short comings. I think he would have saw it out but the board had lost the faith as much as some of the players.

Anyway I'm on board with Luke and he has some talent to work with let's see if he can build on what's been started.

I can't wait to see how our playing style, game plan and selections change. This was the area Macca had the most trouble with.

And the special tang to this Beveridge is the taste of annoying St Kilda into the bargain.

In fairness it appears they have been nothing but supportive of him pursuing this when they could rightly have felt peeved.

Has Lake become a better under his coaching? Or is Lake in a far better side which makes him look better?

I think Lake played some amazing footy with us. Better than anything he has done at the Hawks.

Is it time to buy this man a beer?

In all seriousness what this man has achieved in such a short time frame is nothing short of remarkable. We all know we had talent but to get this team to gel so quickly after what the club went through is astounding. I wonder when he took on this role if he thought he could get the team to be in the position of playing finals football in his first year,

Extremely impressive and surely the coach of the year at this stage of the season

Re: Luke Beveridge the new Western Bulldogs coach

I'm not sure any other appointment could've got us to this point right now. I don't want to think of where would be under the last coach with an outdated gameplan with Dahl playing pocket, Boyd in the middle, Picken in the BP, Wood playing second/third tall, Wally tagging, Grant in the VFL and others lining up to leave. There's so much to love about Bevo, in a lot of different aspects. Got to be coach of the year and I would've given 250-1 to be saying that 9 months ago.

Bevo or Simpson I'd say.

I know one Woofer took precisely those odds for us to make top 4 about 6 months ago....the dream is still alive.
