So my 10yr old, who didn’t want to go today because ‘we always lose’ still wanted a new top (thanks mainly to No. 9!!) just said to me:  our play is kick it here and there and handball to someone with the opposition right behind them, or to the boundary which then rolls out but Sydney’s was kick - mark, kick - mark, kick, goal.  Even a 10 year old deciphers the glaring problem with our game a lot of the time - too much forking possessions that end up being turned over!

And fuck Buddy and the Umps, load of BS calls but we need to demonstrate and stand the hell up! We are still quiet mice!!!

Shout out to big H setting a contested mark record today ????
Not a green shoot. Not an "almost". Not a "brave" performance.
But an achievement that supersedes all AFL players in this skill.

Take a bow H.

I like Bolton too. Seems like a terrific, chirpy, upbeat kinda fella.

Although it might sound pedantic and just semantics but for me it's not about simply sacking BB. It's about understanding that we must now put someone in charge of this group who has been to the mountain top, someone who has had experience at molding a young group into a continual top 4 side. It's about entrusting this group to experience, not experiment.

BB was probably just the right bloke to keep the fans patient during a rebuild but now we need experience at the helm, otherwise a wonderful opportunity may just slide away.

I’ll get Mick on the line... or would you prefer Dennis ?

We seem to have started the season with individual players in hit or miss form.

We have about half a dozen who have been consistently good.
For others it's been a good one week (hold my place)... ineffective the next week.
The inconsistency of youth, coupled with an introduction of players from other clubs.

Yes it will take a while to develop a better understanding of each others strengths and weaknesses but we need the team to settle and gain confidence.
That gets a boost with a win or two.
We won't get that with wholesale changes each week.

looking at the stats, simply too many passengers again....

Dow, Polson, Gibbons, Setters, LoB - simply not enough.

I will be furious if Kennedy is not injured? He should have played.

Did the Gov get injured?

I said this two years ago and everyone laughed.  Bolton is a goose.  This club is inspid.  We are a club with no heart, no guts, a heap of spud GWS rejects and a poor excuse for a coach and line coaches.  We've won 2 games in about 30 matches.  Is this acceptable?  Well it must be because it continues to happen and everyone says we're getting better.  Have people forgotton what it's like to support a club that wins.  He should have been sacked tonight after that appauling disaster show today.
