Believe me I get as pissed off about it as anyone, but then reality kicks in and I realise that Jock McHale, Norm Smith and John Kennedy rolled into one couldn't conjure a win against Collingwood on Sunday with the team that the CFC will send into battle.
I'm not expecting a win, but an honorable loss would be nice.
If you have a team full of stars, like the Lions 3 peat team, what does the coach do ? Ratten made the point once he moved to the Hawks that so many of their players were very easy to coach.
In among the awful skill errors etc., I just wonder whether Bolton is making things harder than he should. Adding the offensive layer has been an epic fail IMO. And that's down to coaches and players IMO. The contrast between 2016, 17 and now is palpable.
