I guess after Bolton we need an old geezer to keep the streak alive. But this time, we should do it properly. Get Barassi. He's old enough, successful enough, and I believe can deliver a good spray. To quote the title of a Fauves album, The Young Need Discipline !
To go further, it was two stubborn dinosaurs well past their best and two coaches that had played the same amount of AFL footy as all of us on here............none! The one younger rookie coach who had played did a good job and for the only time in the last 18 years.
There's a bit more to the pattern.
