I don't think Sweet has been given enough of a crack with game time to see what he's like as a resting forward or defending ruck.
I do know Bont carrying a shoulder injury, Dunkley had a serious shoulder injury and if he keeps getting put in the ruck colliding with rucks 15cm taller and 15kilos...
I'm not so hard on Sprangher the forward line has been changing a bit in the first 12 games. He needs another tall down there to move some attention away from Naughton
I'm more critical of Marc Webb the midfield coach and Rohan Smith in defence.
Ball going into our forward line against better...
Perhaps some
In other words except for Joel Corey who went home to WA, all the other assistant coaches Bevo lost left the Dogs to go sideways in their career.
That's a good look .... NOT 🙄
Why would you leave a club on the verge of success .. something is not right
Or have Chris Grant and...
Fully Independent not a Internal Review conducted by a former opposition
Coach
CEO
Captain
Football Department Manager
List Manager
Best if it's conducted during the last half of 2022 so they can see match days and training also.
No punches pulled a brutally honest assessment of everyone it...
I disagree - I think the amount of midfield depth the Dogs have you play the extra ruck, even if Bruce comes back English and Sweet can rest in the Forward Pocket at times drawing a tall opposition Defender from the Naughton/Bruce contests
McNichol, West, McComb, Scott .. they have their moments but they not like the Premiership Kelpie - Lachie Hunter .. and will unlikely ever will be .. class
Lost so many assistant coaches who used to challenge the opinion of Luke Beveridge
Daniel Giansiracusa, Joel Corey, Steven King, Ashley Hanson, Ben Graham .. what's left except BEVO YES MEN
🤔
Hey Bevo - for the rest of 2022 Dogs do a rare thing you haven't done in selection regularly since 2016 (Roughead/Boyd)
Two 200cm plus Rucks English/Sweet play in the same side and the likes of 190cm Khamis and Dunkley go back to their day jobs
Also what is wrong with a tall dour defender -...
All well and good - but when Bevo decides to move the furniture for the sake of moving the furniture after two 200cm Rucks successfully helped in an interstate 100 + point win the natives have a right to be concerned about his selection policy or habits
English had 4/5 weeks out and was coming...
Bevo needs rest - give him 6 games off and let Rohan Smith coach the side, whatever Bevo is coaching isn't working and it's wasting a good list that deserves better
Bevo 2022 is a long way behind Bevo 2016 - and Sweet replacing English in the middle to give Bontempelli, Macrae, Treloar, Dunkley...
I care what Dogs did not what Melbourne Did
Dogs lost Another 3rd Quarter under Bevo which seems to happen too often
Why didn't Jordan Sweet replace Stefan Martin when he withdrew from the side against Melbourne?
Slack Coaching?
Autopsy = 2 senior Assistant Coaches gone from last year, Bont turns 26 and Macrae turns 27 ... Bevo can only sell potential for so long before the forever rebuild seems like an excuse for crap glass jaw coaching
I preferred Bevo 2015 & 2016 to this overcooked excuse riddled Bevo 2021 and Woke...
My take on the Coaching input that get the Dogs the 2016 Premiership
Bevo 75% - Tactics and Player Management
Macca 25% - Rebuild and Nurture
I'm sure Bevo wants a 100% Coached Premiership in his own right, but he isn't going the right way about it being a hothead at the moment
Perhaps the...
Sliding Doors - like Brian Lake moving to Hawthorn and winning 3 Premierships for the HAWKS in 2013,2014 and 2015
Could Mason Cox moving to Footscray/WesternBulldogs in 2022 do similar
Easton Wood has retired - Dogs have salary cap space - Mason Cox 211cm is uncontracted with Contracted - Dogs...
Lot of interesting GIF's going on in reply to my post - but now Easton Wood retired yesterday as a player (well done my favourite premiership captain Easton) - I will give you a sneak preview to my next post
Brian Lake, Mason Cox and Three Premierships - You don't have to be Einstein to work...
I think if Bevo hasn't won a Premiership in the next two years with the best Bulldogs list we have had since 1954 - we should go back to proven performers who can skull drag our club to a Premiership - If Bevo can't do this in the next 2 years with this talented list - time to go to our 2016...
Hate to be brutal but I think if the Western Bulldogs don't win either the 2022 or 2023 Premiership with this talented list - he should go
Perhaps Easton Wood our ruthless Captain who won the 2016 Premiership and suffered this embarrassing 2021 loss and played with this group of players is the...
I prefer A Coach - not someone who made a mistake .. pardon me champ
Newest - NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has just appointed Michael Coutts Trotter the husband of Tanya Plibersek as NSW Secretary of Premier
Coutts Trotter was jailed previously over Drugs
Why should Western Bulldogs not...
Bevo is an experienced established Premiership coach now - should James Hird and/or Bomber Thompson be considered in any of these vacant Assistant Coach positions at the Western Bulldogs?
I like your idea about Martin as a playing Ruck Coach sort of like Mumford, space still there for Dogs to pick another Ruck Option up
Late in Draft
Rookie Draft
International Rookie B - (Basketball)
Reportedly Mofra - Sweet has accepted a two year contract onto the main Dogs list
Due to the smart draft pick swap Sam Power made swapping pick 17 back to pick 23 and picks in the 40's .. watch this space a ruck via swap or draft may still fall our way outside the Sam Darcy pick
I'm not convinced Ladhams or Ceglar are that much better than Sweet who I think has been starved of opportunity
How about employing Stefan Martin like GWS did with Mumford as a playing Ruck Coach?
I think there is a Physical Conditioning issue behind the 3rd Q fades - it may be simply increasing the aerobic - stamina workload and looking at if some of the mids are carrying to much bulk
I also think Libba needs more help winning the clearances, perhaps the workload jades him after half...
