If any other coach in our history served up that he would probably be gone.
I like Bolton...I think he's probably a good developer of young talent and a good teacher.
But if other clubs shoot past us.
If other clubs have that hard ruthless winning edge...
Bolton will not survive.
We're not patient enough...life's too short.
4 years is the average length of a players total career, it's 1/2 the length of a good players career and a 3rd of a superstars career.
If you get to 4 years as a coach and the team hasn't progressed, you have wasted the entirety of some AFL careers, statistically you have wasted the full career of about 1/2 your playing list!
No matter who is the coach and what potential they offer, that cannot be tolerated.
It was a game like this against Gold Coast that basically cost Ratten his job!
