Luke Beveridge unloaded on Tom Morris calling him a "gutter journalist" and "muckraker" and then effectively accused Morris of a conflict of interest and being a saboteur against the Bulldogs (because Morris barracks for Melbourne). Beveridge then walked out of his post-game presser.

Wow! Quality dummy spit from Bevo. :bow
-
Well Done Bevo. He is only saying what most coaches are thinking, especially ours.
-
The full transcript:
Morris: Talk us through the events of the last few days with a few players, JJ, Martin, Lachie Hunter in and out of the team, Melbourne were similar as well. Is that just normal Round 1 preparation to be uncertain of how you’re going to prepare?
Beveridge: You’ve got the nerve to ask me a question, and even be here? You’ve been preying on us the last two times.
You barrack for Melbourne Tom Morris, you’ve been preying on us. You’ve been opening us up, causing turmoil within our football club by declaring our team well before it needs to be declared. Is that the way Fox want you to operate? Is that the gutter journalist you want to be?
We went with a plan. We had some late stuff go on with JJ coming out in the warm-up, everything other than was according to plan from the Sunday, which somehow you’ve found out about again, so we need to get to the bottom of this.
Obviously we need to put our hand up and say there’s some leakage going on, but you’re preying on it, and it’s a team you barrack for, your conflict of interest here is considerable. Your gutter journalism at the moment is killing us behind the scenes.
This is why the health and wellbeing of people in the game is caught up in this, because we’ve got things to concentrate on performance-wise, we’ve got to look after our own and then you cause all this muckraking trash that happens behind the scenes and names get caught up into it, and all we’re doing is planning for a football game. Are you proud of your self?
Morris: Yes, absolutely. Fox backs me.
Beveridge: Wow. Do they? That’s enough, next question please. Next question, mate, you’re not welcome.
Morris: This is the AFL’s press conference.
Beveridge: Yeah, OK, well I think we’ve got enough boys and girls. I think we’re probably done, aren’t we?
So this is what happens, because I know Sam Edmund does it, many of you, if you found something out you’d ring (the club) and say look, I know this, just to know that you know, something’s happened, it’s got out, and courtesy and integrity and the ethical way to go about it has happened in the past.
Now this bloke here and what he’s doing is giving everybody else a bad name, and right when we’re trying to stabilise our competition and what we do, with everything that’s gone on behind the scenes, and us as coaches and a football program with the soft cap situation as it is, and this sort of stuff happens.
You’re an embarrassment to what you do, mate. You’re an embarrassment.

I quite enjoyed that
Well done Bevo :clapping
-
Great stuff for calling it how he sees it and not being scared to do so
-
From whst I can tell Tom Morris was doing his job. Bevo needs to find the leaker and sack him but that has nothing to do with how Morris gets and reports his info.
-
Yes it is Ramps.
Perhaps not in this case who knows. They should report the truth not fake news. Many of them are full of poo and report gutter trash.
I see Jabba suggesting Morris should take legal action. That’s rich.

Wellity, wellity, wellity....(Language warning)

Hes finished. 100% gone based on those tapes.
-
One less imbecile who pretends to be a journo.
Bevo vindicated, but one must ask who decides to leak it after 6 months. Old tommy has a few enemies it seems.

Fox Footy reporter Tom Morris has been stood down after offensive audio surfaced of him making a series of derogatory comments about a female colleague.

The irony and karma of a leak from within bringing a "journo" like Morris down.
Talk about acting like a juvenile 14 year old btw. Grow up!
ps. Got to feel for Megan Barnard who had nothing to do with any of this having her name dragged into it because of what was said and recorded about her behind her back.

The Age (Via Jake Niall) reporting Morris has been sacked
-
So how stupid does jabba and the rest of the media scum feel now about Beveridge and Morris?
Talk about having egg on your face.
The girl is the lucky loser and I feel if it weren’t for the media then this video wouldn’t not have surfaced.

FWIW.

I doubt Bevo had anything to do with it but yep whoever that was has been hanging onto a personalised atomic bomb for a special moment. Was it really necessary?
Gotta watch what you say to who these days.

It was a mate of his from a group chat that leaked it. Making a living from leaks and getting sacked because of a leak. Classic
