Wow, I just do not know how to respond to that! :o

High as kites the both of them during the season.

Have a look at the video. Remember, Betts has been on record regarding his approach to footy and taking taking life much more seriously at Adelaide.


I don't know what's true and what isn't and I will agree that we haven't behaved the right way with everyone, but I remember watching this video in 2013 and thinking to myself, that we have a group within a group here with only one solid citizen amongst them in Dennis Armfield.


We have made a significant attempt to change the culture at our footy club.  When I look back at these decisions (selling the farm to get Judd, sacking Fev, Sacking Ratten, Letting Betts walk, recruiting Dale Thomas, letting go Laidler who's biggest sin was disagreeing with the coach, sacking Garlett, sacking Robinson) and I think of it from the perspective of a footy club trying to drag itself out of the mire it was stuck in, then they all make perfect sense and it even paints the picture of Mick NOT coaching just for his career.

Still we get too caught up in inidividual incidents to think about the big picture, and thats ok, but I think its time we stood by and pretending we knew less about running a footy club than we think we did, and we might end up with the right summation of what is going on for a change (which is another reason why I think Bolton is under no internal pressure, and any scrutiny on the club is external).
