I have begging for years to see a carlton side this tenacious.
We certainly dont give up even if we go to sleep for a quarter or two a game.
Remember the days when we just didn't rock up?
Terrible.

But most coaches, not just Bolts, are reluctant to run full time taggers. I've seen pressers with Buckley, Bolton, and others where they give their reasons, as I've discussed elsewhere.
And yet you readily admit Cripps regularly gets tagged.
ffs Paul, take a few reality pills.

I’m so ducking sick of watching teams like these pricks with their sniper coach, cheating and stepping forward or moving to better angles or all those little things, and we just sit there and watch it happen. So bloody frustarting! Where are our whinging players to question things?!
Bolton coached at the Hawks for 5 years - I'm sure he knows all their tricks backwards.

Dont confuse tagging with going head to head.

No, I'm using Paul's own words.
(and no, no confusion - you reckon Howe was going H2H today?)

Judging by the result, clearly not.
Are you Bolts Paul, or his brother?

The point is, tagging Cripps usually has little or no effect. How often does he look like the best player on the ground, the most influential player ? If tagging is not really going to curb a player's influence, then the tagger would be better deployed elsewhere.
You always lose something when you tag - the real issue is whether the gain offsets the loss. Clearly a number of modern coaches are reluctant to use regular taggers, not just Bolts.
We didn't lose today because of tagging.

No, just someone who doesn't jump at shadows and go looking for soft, easy solutions to complex issues.

His sister. Paul is a cover for Pauline. ;D

Sounds like code for making excuses Paul, that's ok.
Just stop shooting yourself in the foot when trying to salvage Bolton's game day tactics?
