you have to take risks and hope fortune favours the brave..
Scott wasnt convinced Geelong had the game won and started Dangerfield at FF in the last quarter even though he had been their best midfielder......he took the risk and it paid off.
Bolton lacks imagination or courage to make moves IMO....Jones has the capability of being a good swingman, we needed to kick goals, take marks down forward/contest better to create more crumbs and get Stewart occupied more.
Harry, Kerr and Charlie was too tall for those conditions and I would have taken Harry and Kerr off and used Charlie, Jones and 4 smaller forwards.....
EB I think BB is going very conservatively/cautiously for now and won't be taking too many risks in order to try to win games. His priorities lie with player development and game plan imo and so will be very much sticking to the KISS principle. Winning I think in his book is a "nice to have" within this overall framework but he is tring to get the idea of structure and role hammered into the heads of players first and foremost. We'll see eventually I guess.
Reality always wins in the end.
