I must admit I've heard no indication one way or another about Wiley.

...and the dominoes begin to fall. Necessary and important, especially in terms of who we bring in to complete the major renovation.

Buttifant had to go; our fitness was nowhere near other teams and it is common knowledge that Collingwood improved their fitness markedly after Buttifant departed.
Bolton must be given the opportunity to mould a coaching team that understands and promotes the way he wants us to play. Laidley clearly didn't fit and I'm not sure any of the other assistants will either.
I know that Barker has been offered a role, and I suspect that his philosophy isn't far from Bolton's. However, it wouldn't surprise me if Barker went elsewhere to further his career.
The only one I would keep is Capuano. I have been critical of him in the past but he has improved Kreuzer's ruckwork considerably and that has been the key to our good performances in clearances. Hopefully, Bolton and company will be able to build on that.

Im hearing rumors on capuano about being a good bloke and staying ..but he should go with brad green, webster and shane osullivan....

Ruckwork is a funny thing DJC.
Our club doesn't get it but it is clear you don't have to win the ruck to get things moving in your preferred direction. You can lose the ruck contest in such a manner that your opponent starts hitting the ball where you want it to go, all the time thinking they are winning!

It sure is LP.
What I have noticed since Kreuzer's return is that, while he may not win all ruck contests, most of his hitouts go to our advantage and rarely result in opposition clearances. Our failing is that we don't take full advantage of our good ruck and clearance work.

Yep
Cripps still has a bit of work to do on his disposal.
It's an area where there is room for improvement.
By the time Kreuzer got back Gibbs was basically gone for the year.
If a player like Gibbs was working that second possession off the clearance we may be going better.
Unfortunately we may not get to see that Kreuzer, Cripps, Murphy, Gibbs combination again
Re: Laidley and Buttifant GONE!! More changes to come ? - PassIt2Carrots - 09-07-2015
Instead we will see the Cripps, Murphy, Gibbs, Weitering, Scache combo.

I was happy with Laidley, but not so much with Buttifant. I don't think we were an exceptionally fit side this season. I will be interested to see if Bolton is the driving force to build a new group of assistants, or whether SOS will have his stamp on some potential changes with the club. Either way, changes gives us an opportunity to try something new.
