We play Adelaide in Adelaide next Saturday night. Things do not bode well.

Out of the country for this one and the next several all the way through to the bye - and I can only see Essendon as beatable in that run and that will depend on which Essendon turns up. This week could turn very ugly.

I'll call it now, if we get pumped next week and have a bad loss to the Essendon Bolton is finished.

Disagree, Bolton will be coaching Round 23 this year

The major problem afaic is that we don't seem to be able to execute the basic skills of the game to the necessary levels for AFL footy. Couple that with a propensity for taking poor options at critical times and where does that leave us? If you look at it from a 'teacher's' perspecfive, are we trying to teach Shakespeare to people with Grade Prep reading skills? I firmly believe that this is at the root of our problems. Not sure of how to address it, over to the coaching staff I guess.

Good analogy. As Clint Eastwood said, "a man's got to know his limitations". Some of our players don't

So you reckon after R8 he could be sacked ?

Bolton's here for the year and probably the start of next year.
In many respects his fortunes are tied to those that put him in charge and if he goes he won't be Robinson Crusoe.
The next few weeks could be very difficult but as often happens in these situations don't be surprised by the unexpected result.
Not sure it will be this week

As frustrated an p155ed off as I am, we need to keep the course.
We need to have faith i the talent of these kids we have coming through, and believe that with 50 games, they will start shining. Just need to also have faith our coaches aren't fekking them up because the skill level at our club at present is atrocious.
