News Welcome Luke Beveridge

[threenewpadlocks]

Welcome (back) to the Kennel.

Exciting times. Young Squad. A massive 10yr Forward and a young but stern coach with some roots to the club. Should be interesting.

 

[Nath09]

Greetings and salutations Mr. Beveridge. Hopefully they players and supporters alike unite around Luke and give him their full support. May he be the one to lead us to greatness.

Welcome aboard Bevo. Looking forward to you bringing a bit of mongrel back into the mix at our club. I liked you as a player because you punched above your weight and am genuinely pleased with today's announcement.

You have my full support.

 

[TedDougChris]

I wish you more support and goodwill from the playing group than the last person received.... I hope the ones remaining realise that you don't get anywhere without hard work, and there are sacrifices that need to be made to be successful. I hope that you can build bridges and rediscover the old team first ethos that was a hallmark of the club when I was young... I hope you can commit us to playing uncompromising football, but with flair and style.

And above all - it's about ******* time we won the flag.....

I vote this for thread of the year, saves reading a thousand pages on the other thread

I, for one, welcome our new drink overlord.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing!

fronkalicious on your post in the other thread. I didn't in any way want to be negative on the guy. I am pumped about his appointment. It is just a first impression from the video, which is really important for supporters and it wasn't the best presentation.

I haven't seen him speak publicly before and that was my reaction.

I couldn't give a toss if he couldn't string 3 words together, as long as he can coach.

 

[TheHoneyBadger]

Very happy with this appointment.

Stoked that he's our new coach, and it's not just because I followed Fronk's advice and loaded up on sportsbet before the news got out that he was being considered.

What odds did you get mate?

 

[Zgope1]

Good on ya Bevo- looking forward to your presser.

Let's get around this guy, the support of the fans helps and he deserves that for a bit longer than the last guy had it.

Let's hope the players like him but not because he says they don't have to work hard/ defend. Of course this won't be the case.

Let's hope he creates a culture at the club that can keep our guns on the list.

Let's hope he is one of those Paul Roos/Ross Lyon/Clarko supercoaches that gets the best out of average players and makes us hard to beat every week

 

[Roscoe_au]

Any coach that could keep the Hawks defensively sound while they were missing 2 of their best defenders for most of the year has some serious talent

 

[Zgope1]

Anyone know if he was in charge of their "defense" or just their "backline" two very different things. Did well either way though but if he was the guy that created that team defense then wow

PS - Wasn't his nickname "Beaver" when he played?

 

[Roscoe_au]

Anyone know if there'll be any further announcements today on support staff/assistants?

 

[Optimistic Dog]

In the words of Up Yours Oakley - I like to announce a new force in football "The Western Bulldogs" - new coach, new captain, new gun forward, new game plan, renewed spirit and renewed hope get on board and have toast for success- GO DOGS

You're certainly living up to your name mate, I love it.

 

[Aldo]

$10 which was alright. Got in right before they suspended betting. Note, by loading up, I mean putting everything in my sportsbet account on him. Which was a whole $4. Pretty happy still, and now I can put the $40 on Boyd to win the Coleman next year.
