The first two misses, Dow's and Harry's were solely due to a lack of concentration and technique. Dow tried to steer the ball through rather than kick through it, and Harry just didn't give a stuff. Thought this is easy, and missed.
That's another symptom of poor coaching.
Two more things,
1. Have you noticed how many of our blokes run past the opponent who has got the ball, rather than at them in a real desire to tackle?
2. If you want to know why Bolton can't coach, he's a good talker but can't coach, think back to the first quarter against Richmond.
Game 1 of the season, 85,000 people, and the coach can't have the players up enough to want to run through a brick wall for him and the supporters. So what do we get, a 5 goal to zero first quarter.
Forget what happened in the next two quarters, that first quarter cost us any chance of winning.
That said all that needed to be said about Bolton for me.
