If we sack the coach I'll cancel my membership.

The organisation needs to take a good hard look at itself before looking for a scapegoat.

Cats nearly sacked Bomber after we belted them at Optus back in the day. Set up a dynasty starting from the next season.

Hardwick and the entire board at Tigerland was nearly thrown out the door, but less than 12 months later they had a flag.

Buckley was all but sacked this time last year but pies were 1 kick away from ultimate glory.


If you are going to go down the rebuild path, don't jump at shadows. It takes time. Stay the course, its a long game we are playing.

Yep.  Sacking coaches achieves nothing but masking problems.  New coach comes in, everyone gets a shot in the arm, things improve temporarily until it gets hard and reality hits, and that's all she wrote.  Then we start sacking players again until the new coach loses the group and everyone calls it a giant waste of their time and wants to leave.

Where have I heard this story again???

Knowing our influential supporters we will end up with Loss Ryon.

For all his faults and short comings, I’d much rather have Bolton speaking on behalf of my club than the perpetual whinger Hardwick. How dumb is he!! Complain about treatment to your pinup boy when you’re winning, not when you lose because you look like a mega sook. ‘Protect the playmakers!’ Great Dimma, just include ALL playmakers like Danger, Cripps, Fyffe, Sloane etc not just Mr Precious who can’t handle a strong tag!! Bolton never uses those excuses (eg yesterday’s presser and the Jones question). He has every right to complain especially about the Cripps treatment, but he doesn’t. He throws the onus back on the players. Pi55 off Dimma, you are nothing more than a front runner coach who had a dream run and can’t handle it when the temperature is turned up in the kitchen!!!

Agree. Now that the green shoots etc. are out of the way (maybe for good), I like the new Bolts and the way he conducts his pressers. Hopefully the umps are paying close attention and will give us the rub of the green on 50/50 decisions. 

Bolton's pressers like his coaching lack imagination and are full of well worn cliches that frankly most off us are sick of hearing.
Working hard on Tuesday and Thursday is what I expect after any game not just a loss....
Even the questions posed to Bolton are just Dorothy Dix nuffy stuff that most of us could answer......are we that bad that even journo's cant be bothered asking anything that
might get a negative reaction?....
Give the fans something, some hope...not we are working hard on the track, not we are challenging ourselves etc etc.......
