Luke Beveridge’s frosty relationship with the media does not look like it will be thawing anytime soon.

And things took an awkward turn on Thursday night when star Seven commentator Brian Taylor tried to talk to the Western Bulldogs coach for BT’s highly popular Roaming Brian segment.

Taylor spotted Beveridge chatting to Bulldogs great Brad Johnson and star midfielder Tom Liberatore after the thumping win over GWS.

“We’ll see if we can sneak up on him and just grab a quick word ... just having a chat here to the coach,” Taylor said as he roamed the Dogs’ rooms.

As Taylor approached, Beveridge turned to him and appeared to give him the evil eye.

“I don’t know whether we can have a quick word,” Taylor said to Beveridge but the coach then walked away.

“Can we just grab one question with you?” Taylor continued.

Beveridge then circled around Taylor and ducked as he walked behind him.

“Don’t you do Channel Seven anymore, Bevo?” Taylor inquired.

Beveridge muttered something to Taylor and then appeared to say, “I don’t like you.”

Of course, the professional Taylor took it all in his stride.

“Bevo not all that happy with things here,” he said.

Beveridge has a ban on expert AFL commentator Kane Cornes, who has been critical of the coach over his defensive strategy (or lack of).

Cornes believes the Bulldogs have one of the best lists in the AFL and thinks they should be performing better than where they are currently positioned.

The Dogs are in a scrap to make finals this year and Cornes believes the Bulldogs have underachieved since Beveridge guided them to a drought-breaking flag in 2016.

Beveridge, in his time as coach, has had many sour relationships with journalists and media types over the years.

He had a high-profile feud with Damian Barrett who works with AFL Media and Nine, and later Beveridge refused to appear at off-the-record chats with AFL Media reporters (that all the other coaches attended) ahead of the season.

In 2022 Beveridge had an explosive blow-up with reporter Tom Morris who was working with Fox Footy at the time.

Morris had reported that Lachie Hunter was going to be left out of the team and Beveridge accused him of gutter journalism.

“You’ve got the nerve to ask me a question, and even be here,” Beveridge said to Morris after the game against Melbourne in 2022.

“You barrack for Melbourne, Tom Morris. You’ve been preying on us. You’ve been opening us up and causing turmoil within our football club by declaring our team well before it needs to be declared.

“Is that the gutter journalist you want to be?”

Not long after that blow-up, Morris lost his job for a separate issue.

Earlier this year Beveridge was involved in another tense exchange with Cornes when the Bulldogs played at Geelong.

The pair faced off at GMHBA Stadium ahead of the match, when Beveridge walked past Cornes on the boundary line.

Beveridge is also believed to be the reason AFL great Chris Grant has had a falling out with his beloved Western Bulldogs.

Last month Grant did not attend the Western Bulldogs’ centenary gala where the club named its top five greatest players of the past 100 years.

It was later revealed that Grant was seriously urged to go to the event, where he was named in the top three of the club’s all-time greats, behind only EJ ‘Ted’ Whitten (the spiritual father) and modern-day great Marcus Bontempelli.

Veteran AFL journalist Caroline Wilson said it all stemmed from Grant’s time at the club when he was football director, and a frosty relationship that developed with Beveridge after an internal review.
