Schache reminds me in part of the laconic Dustin Fletcher!! Get it done Bev..

WRONG!! Go back to see the video Mitch. Libba was scragged down by 4 Norf players.

Bevo has never particularly got on well with tall timber... He doesn't seem to be able to connect with them as he can with the small brigade. The evidence is the poor development and relations with our past tall stock..

Bev is slowly losing the players. When he announced the two debutantes last week naturally the team were happy for them. However, at the same time they realized they were facing a loss due to the playing standard of the two players and how other better credentialed players were left to sink or...

Why? Because the team has already developed bad habits, attitude and lack of belief. This is a coaching problem..

As I mentioned a few times this year ...certainly Mac should continue his development work. There is no question of that. He is a great acquisition for the juniors in our club. The next obvious step is to compliment his work by signing a Senior Head Coach or Director of Coaching with proven...

Certainly he should continue his development work. There is no question of that. He is a great acquisition for the club. The next obvious step is to compliment his good work by signing a Head Coach or Director of Coaching before the boys learn how to accept defeat and learn bad habits.

If this is true -then I think Macca has realized his own strengths and weaknesses. To be fair -it was only ever him going into battle that he could see his limitations (tactical / game play). Simply put in military terms -he is a well-respected military college instructor of young men -but we...

"..Coach Rodney Eade farewelled retiring pair Brad Johnson and Nathan Eagleton, outgoing assistant coach Leon Cameron and physiotherapist Sue Cautley, and thanked Tim Callan - who is not being retained on the list - for his three years at Whitten Oval..." -Bulldogs website By Jennifer Witham...

Correct CD! Unless we have access to the players, coaching staff, management etc -how well can we really judge Eade's performance? Hence the need to acknowledge what we do not know/have access to and when we do try to rate his performance we should also use an objective (read: non-emotive)...

Here's a quick list I have compiled we can use to rate Eade's coaching performance for 2010. The list is by now means complete -so please add additional items you think we can use. What rating (out of 10) would you score Eade on the below items? How would you rate his game day tactical...

By ROBERT WALLS -The Age, May 7, 2010 "...there is one major problem. No one is prepared to sit in the driver's seat when the going gets tough...It's a disappointing start for a team that has as much, if not more, talent than any side in the competition...Their window of opportunity to win a...

Brad Johnson fits bill for Round 1 shock!! -Sun Herald. March 23rd, by Scott Gullan "..After being written off last week, the Dogs captain now looks set to play his 350th game against Collingwood at Etihad Stadium on Sunday..."...

I was within 30 metres of the incident and can inform you that Grant was not hit in the "throat". When the ball next came back into a crowded goal square Hall (jumping for a mark in a pack) received a solid punch to the back of his head for his troubles. Pay back was dished out on the field...
