@ Paul

Yes mate we all have to be very careful when making assumptions and drawing conclusions.

Luckily, there's no fear of me doing that.

Will be going this week to give Teague support in very trying circumstances.

I'm not expecting miracles but maybe a different approach which offers hope for the future.

If Bolton were still coach after that disgraceful, humiliating display last weekend, I would not be going again this year.

Watched the tape again and Setterfield was much better than I originally thought.  At least kicks the ball into positions from which we can score. I wonder if his knee is really 100 percent.  I reckon he is worth persisting with but of the outs, Stocker was due a break but the others won't be missed

Problem is, apart from Crippa and Kruze, he is the only one who seems to put his nose right over it and show some kent towards the opposition. As Maclure said, I wouldnt play with the rest.

Really? 

[ElwoodBlues1]

Those three behinds he kicked from 8 possessions EB must've really taken it out of him

Yep Surfie...he really knocked himself out trying to get a kick and looked real
upset at missing those goals..not.
Think he knows its lights out at seasons end and he is just taking it easy.

) ) ) well done, if I read that comment correctly you had a good-natured dig at yourself.  )

Oh, and the 'over-coaching' knock on BB went back a couple of years. When I see 'over-coaching' I think 'control freak'. It's a fine line between the didactic and simply letting young blokes find out through experience, through letting them 'strut their stuff', make the mistakes on the paddock and correct them on the paddock.

[Thryleon]

I'm going this week.  I have no expectations.

O'Brien playing dismissed any idea we would get up this week as he is just not ready yet for afl footy.

I think we'll continue where we left with Bolton.  A couple of good quarters, one so so quarter and one where we seem just not present.

Setterfield is the best out of the GWS debacle and will give you a contest...needs to be in the middle with Cripps, Stocker will be good value but needs some decent mature player support.

Agree.
