What most non Carlton people don't understand, or conveniently overlook, is that we virtually rebuilt the whole Club from the ground up. It started with Trigg came in and identified the embarrassingly old way the Club was set up and run.
Reckon Bolts was the right candidate to get us through the rebuild stage, as he's a good communicator with the players and was exactly what we needed following the out of date methods of Mick.
Whether he's the guy to take us that next step is up for debate. So far, looks like his match day tactics are a massive area of weakness. Could ve done with a senior assistant like Caracella this year.
Happy with the job SOS has done. My only complaint with him is we used to always find some great diamonds in the rough from our Rookie List like Jamo, Tuohy, Thornton etc. That has pretty much stopped under SOS. Also not factoring the plethora of 'steak knives' players like Sumner, Kerridge, Smedts etc who've come and gone from the club (the media is obsessed with them every time they try to debate our recruiting under SOS), but was Kennedy worth a Pick 16 and O Brien worth a Top 10er ?
