Ratten is the only one to drag us from a basket case to a good side and did it the next year with Finals the year after. Near every year around that has terrible. Malthouse got us to finals on the back of Ratten's team them we fell apart, not unlike the way 3yrs under Bolton has. Only an idiot would go with Bolts when Ratten is available.
Love to see Ratten with a good young team and work with SOS rather than half a list if crap, top half good though, he had when stuck with Wayne Hughes.
Think Bolton will get the boot when they start coming for MLG and SOS but not before....he would be sacrificed to save them but I dont see the club changing coaches for at least 12 months.
The footy world is fairly united in the opinion that Bolton is still the man for the job and that the job has been larger and more difficult than first anticipated and that cuts him some slack for another 12 months IMO....and who would want the job?..My money is still on Ross Lyon as Freo fans are not warming to him much at the moment either and Ross likes to cut and run and Ross has three friends now in power at the club now that Lloyd has joined us. Lyon has also been very kind in his words for our club and is just leaving his options open IMO..
