2018 Rd 13: Post Game Prattling-Carlton v Fremantle

[blue4life]

That might be true, but it's hard to blame Ratten for that and we might say similar about the current mob playing footy for us in 9 years time

I'm not blaming Ratten in any shape or form, what I'm attempting to do is to explain the relative success that Ratten enjoyed in his first few seasons as compared to the situation Bolton finds himself in today.
The team we've been fielding over much of this season is as weak or weaker than anything Pagan had at his disposal, so I really don't know what more people expect.
