Only 1 game into Round 1!!!

and director's cut still to come

 

Well Bevo got what he wanted. Watching the sports news and not a single mention of how the Dogs lost yet again or gave up a good lead yet again. Deflection for the win.

Happy for us to go under the radar. All they’ve avoided was heat on their performance. Their issues don’t disappear though.

Bevo sincere apology lands after Tom Morris self inflicted hit-job lands...

Yes, i chuckled at that.

The content of those audio clips does make me wonder what sort of malicious scuttlebutt Morris might have been pushing spreading to his 'mates' about some of the doggie's players that he wasn't reporting on, but that Beveridge was aware of.  It is a very small industry and gossip works two ways. 

Might go some way to explaining how livid Beveridge was.

Not to sound cynical , think it was written by someone else, the president of Dogs runs Disney Australia . She knows words matter

I swear on my children's grave i posted this before i knew anything about the two audio recordings floating about.

I'm glad we didn't have time to canonize Morris. 

What incredible irony that he has been exposed for who he truly is in this fashion.  

Surely he is toast employment wise. 

Dieter, don't the germans have word for the pleasure i am experiencing?

schadenfreude ?

Bevo should be apologising to the MFC and all of its members by highlighting that Tom Morris barracks for Melbourne

To be fair most teams get a free pass when they lose to the best team in the comp :cool:

So true. What an embarrassment. 
Morris is an asshat

That's starting to become my feeling as well.

My hunch is that Bevo might have been keeping his powder dry on another matter so as not to breach confidences on a more sensitive topic. What this topic is, I'm not sure and can't say, but I've been in personal and professional situations like this where I've gone for the throat on what seems to be a trivial matter but the crux of the real issue is usually a lot more explosive.

While some of his rhetoric and conduct has been a bit odd lately, that outburst seemed incongruent with a bloke willing to give his coach's premiership medal to Bob Murphy.

I'm very glad I've stayed well out of this. I have seen enough cancel-culture behaviour in the last 5 years to know where this could have gone. I was not shocked at all when clips of Morris began popping up, and although I thought what Beveridge did was totally unprofessional, my view of the character of Tom Morris would not allow me to stick up for him…so I kept my mouth shut for once and it worked!

Yay me.

It would explain some of the oblique, seemingly unrelated comments, for example the suggestion of mental health impacts of Morrison's reporting 

Who was the women he was referring to? Such a sad situation.

One a-hole cancels another a-hole who then cancels that a-hole in return. So 2022.

Would've definitely been written for him

 

So now we find out the real Tom. Not much sympathy now. Remember Tom, things recorded can be found. Always thought he was a bit swifty.

Tom being a pickle and Beveridge being a pickle are two separate issues.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
