Also on Bolton I very much doubt he has any power to make any real changes at the club due to that setup. There are quite a few who control things and the coach is not going to be one of them.
If you look at Richmond, or go back to Geelong, or even Hawthorn, those teams worked WITH the coach to really develop the list, the style and the direction and they backed them in, even when they stumbled. And due to that they ultimately found success.
Bolton was never going to have that chance as evidenced by how they originally hired him on some contract basis. Sounded good to the media, was a death knell to him finding success and building a team.
That half time score line is what ours could have / should have been yesterday if we kicked straight yesterday. Hawthorn had 7-8 we were 4-11 (15 scoring shots each).
Port look to be in a bit of strife against GWS with only 1 goal on the board nearing the halfway mark of the second quarter. The Giants look reasonably sharp
