If we scrape into finals it would be hands down the weirdest build up to a final of all time
Just make it public and let the man coach the season out I’m not sure what the big deal is - would be a mature approach by everyone.

It’s not working out we’re going a different way next season, have some fun and see what you can get out of the players this week and possibly the next couple if things fall our way.

It would be weird but winning a couple of finals doesn’t change anything - just make it official already, better for everyone if he has a confirmed send off game
 
Does youse guys not think it a little odd with all of the rumours floating about that not a single journalist (that Im aware of) is running with the story?

Given the competitive nature of the industry. Im struggling to understand how a team that is still a live chance of playing finals and beyond (both long-shots given current form) is on the cusp of sacking its coach. Isn't the biggest story in the game right now.

Sure, most of the rumours seem to be generated from this very board. But that hasn't ever precluded media types running with stories from here before.

It's hard to believe that if the rumours of a rejected payout that are floating about enough to catch the attention of posters here and they're willing to post them. Then it's also hard to believe that they haven't moved beyond those circles and into the inbox of a journalist.

I think I'll stroke out before any announcement is made.

If a journo is to run with this they’d want to be concrete. If you get this wrong you will burn a few bridges.

Also as bad shape as we are in board members aren’t leaking to the media like the Essendon aabd Carlton boards do.

We have generally kept a pretty tight ship in regard to media leaks.

The media have been reporting that serious change is coming. They are probably waiting to see who it impacts and if it extends to Bevo and Grant. It's probably not clear enough for them to run with. That's why they are being a bit circumspect.
 
I heard Bev already has a job lined up at Marbo Park next season in the EDFL.

Heard he got rejected by Aberfeldie and Doutta Stars

Then went to Marby where their previous AFL coach left a real impression

They're essentially reporting the company line that there will be a clean out of assistant coaches and backroom staff.

All small potatoes in comparison to the alleged sacking of one of two premiership coaches in the clubs history.

None of them want to get ripped a new one in the post game presser

Or have their heads dunked in a toilet at the Brownlow

I just went to see a medium and she put me in contact with the ghost of Teddy Whitten, who told me that Bevo will be sacked this year. I said "Thanks for the info, E.J. Do you know this because you've been listening in on the board meetings or because ghosts can see the future? How does it all work?" The medium stared straight ahead with a blank expression for what seemed like several minutes, then finally said, "Yes." I've got goosebumps just from retelling it...

Whats to fear though?

If there's anything to it, then Beveridge is essentially a lame duck ready for plucking.

There would be any number of Journo's who would be ready to take the risk and square the ledger.

On the very remote chance we actually make and win a final or two, the dead man walking aspect would make the media coverage unbearable.
 
Cleveland probably unintentionally just got someone sacked haha. We know how pissed Bevo and the club were a couple of years ago about leaks, and were desperate to find them.
Yeah, hope not.
