Gosh we are so hard to watch.
The assistant coaches are picked by the head coach ffs....

I have a really dumb idea that just might work. Can we request the AFL allow us to merge with North. Surely we could merge some of their skilled and hardened bodies to our squad to make a side that wins games.

We'll all take what we want from the game.
My take...
We were better than last week (couldn't possibly be much worse)
The players did come to play, and the effort and attitude early on was quite good.
They did fly the flag when teammates were monstered
But I suspect it reached a point around the end of the first quarter where they felt they'd done enough to exorcise the ghosts of last week and they dropped the intensity.
Too many went missing after a good start.
Our skill level remains deplorable especially when a little bit of pressure is applied.
and finally....
The umpires were horrendous, and I'm one who normally just ignores it when folks blame the umpiring, but...
We need to make a formal complaint about it....because there were enough examples today of just terrible decisions.

Do you know that was the substance of my very first post on the forum back in 2002.
A merger with North.
Folks were pretty kind in retrospect...we were all a little shell-chocked in those days.
If only we'd known then it was about to get a whole lot worse.

If Bolton got sacked tonight, would he have the worst win/loss record ever of AFL coaches (barring a few interim coaches)?

In short, and atrocious umpiring aside, we just do not have a clue about playing footy at this level - basically completely disorganised and running around like headless chooks. I cannot see us winning another game in the foreseeable future. I am demoralised.

Cookie, Got a injury ravaged Bombers next week coached by a bloke who probably wont have a job at years end, if we lose to our bitches in Essendon then I think
thats total regression and Brad Scott might get a call or two but IMO we can win next week but I dont think it will change much.

The senior coach is responsible for the assistant coaches, he's their leader, he's the one who is accountable. If they're not following instructions or stuffing up, well he's had 3 1/2 years to fix it/to set a culture for the assistant coaches to fit into. The buck must stop somewhere and throwing the blame all about the place let's him off.. and other senior people at the club.
