to help him with his match day coaching. Was also very slow to respond to how Beams was slaughtering us and getting out on his own.....
I will credit him for putting work into Zorko though and the Ed Curnow/Lamb tag worked ok for the first quarter till the floodgates broke...
Bolton spoke about this very issue in his presser. Said we were behind on the scoreboard and it becomes a robbing Peter to pay Paul scenario if we try and tag too many. He said there's little point in playing 2 or 3 taggers when we are trying to win a game of footy - trying to tag Beams, Zorko etc. doesn't help us score. We didn't see much that was good yesterday, but I think he understands tactics well enough.
