Veteran journalist Mike Sheahan believes that more pressure should be placed on the Western Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs sit 14th on the ladder with four wins and seven losses and haven’t made the finals since their drought-breaking premiership in 2016.
Sheahan believes the Bulldogs should be placed under the microscope.
“They’ve escaped scrutiny because we’ve always been targeting other clubs,” he told SEN Breakfast.
“I don’t know whether it’s lack of public interest or not, but they certainly deserve the microscope.
"I think if they continue this year the way they have gone for the first half of the year, there will be some big decisions made at the end of the year.”
Sheahan believes that a lot of credits come with being a premiership coach but they have an “expiry date”.
The veteran journalist says Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge is running out of time to bring his side back to the finals.
“I would say it’s three years, and this is Bevo’s third year since the flag,” he said.
“If I were Peter Gordon (Western Bulldogs president), I would be going to people and saying 'what’s happening here?'”
The Western Bulldogs have a bye this week before facing Carlton on Saturday June 15 at Marvel Stadium.
