The Defence

[kruddler]

I thought similar but different at the time of his sacking, our fwd line at the time was shambolic, who was the fwd line coach? None other than Mr D Teague. I think I wrote at the time that IMO, some assistants are at clubs just waiting for the opportunity to sit in the big chair. One in that position could almost manufacture such an opportunity for himself. I mean what does it say about you when your line is the worst performing?

Same scenario, different thought process.

Bolton, IMO, was NOT listening to his assistants enough.
When he left it to them, we won.
When one of them took over, we won.
We instantly became a better side, and continue to be a better side.
So to me, thats on Bolton, not Teague tanking.
Pretty sure Bolton was struggling before Teague came on board too IIRC.
