It’s nothing like Buckley or Hardwick. Buckley had never had the pies lower than 13th and always competitive and Hardwick won 6 games in his first season as coach with a side regarded as worse than our current one, and made finals 3 times before a down year in 2016. Both of Buckley and Hardwick could of been sacked but no way were their win loss records remotely as bad as bolts. Buckley never had as poor a side and club to coach. Hardwick started from a base thought to be just as bad as us, recruited smartly and didn’t just load up on first rounders and banged up injured first rounders from 5 years ago. |

Buckley took over a side who had just lost a grandfinal, where did he take them, let me tell you ,backwards! |

Our leaders are the right people to guide the Blues to success. They are hard and ruthless when needed. A decision may at some stage be made that a change of coach is required. However, it is equally likely that a decision will be made that stronger, better and more tactical support staff are required. The club is building for sustained success, not to be a long term mid table team. I understand that a win would be great, however, would anyone have been truly satisfied with a 1 goal win yesterday? At best it may have kept the media at bay for a while but in reality those at the club would still be questioning / reviewing and analysing where the team and its development is at. Cheers OR Changing the support staff with a shit head coach is like shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic. 3 wins from 35, 0-4. I'd be changing as soon as possible as to continue doing the same thing is worse. Didn't hurt when we swapped Pagan for Ratten. To keep turning out shit just hurts the culture. We need to select coaches alot better. We've selected one good one since Parko. Since then it's gone rookie coach who had never played AFL, old dinosaur who was past it, rookie coach who had played and well, old dinosaur who was past it, rookie coach who hasn't played. Look at that and one coach did well. Not hard to guess, then we sacked him for an old dinosaur. Something we have been terrible at. Changing assistant staff worked for Hardwick, Buckley and now for Richardson. I think Bolton should stay but someone like Barker has had a long time with not much success. It doesn't work if you head coach isn't good. Hardwick could coach. If he couldn't changing assistant staff would do nothing. What a load of 'hindsight is a wonderful thing' comment How do you know Hardwick could coach? During the 2016 season, he had the big 4 plus many other seasoned players and probably came close to being sacked bc many thought he couldn't coach Rich won the flag bc of 4 things 1. Astute recruitment to grab Nankervis 2. Martin had a year that will not be repeated 3. Their injuries were NON existent 4. Adelaide CHOKED big time (go back and look at the combined stats of Walker, Jenkins, Betts, Lynch and Cameron). Oh and did we mention the injuries to Smith, McGovern and Crouch Apart from asking his recruiters to find a good ruckman, Hardwick had little control over the other 3 |

It would do more damage to the club, our culture and players if this was to happen. You would also lose some disgruntled key talent along the way. I couldn't disagree more with this dishonest approach. |

And they went 0-9 to start his first year. Not sure what your point is when you leave out the important facts. |

Talk on the couch that he is micro-managing the coaching and overdoing the review process, thus confusing the players. Of course we don't know but it might be an indication as to why players seem confused and their natural instincts seem to have been coached out of them. |

You can see the process has started. We are currently in coach protection mode but it is inevitable he will gone if wins don't come. The signs are there. Senior players coming out saying players need to take more responsibility Rumors of tension between list managers and coach Coach saying that the entire club is working through it. Members of the board trying to justify the club's position. Talk of some players not being happy and would be better off elsewhere. Its the death march we have all been here before. Malthouse sacked Ratten sacked Pagan sacked Brittain sacked Parkin moved aside Jezza's sacked Walls sacked Parkin sacked Jones sacked Jezza's sacked Stewart sacked Thurgood sacked Nicola pushed aside All big names some giants of the industry all with better coaching records than Bolton. Its only a matter of time We are now defined by wins and losses. This isn't a cop out any more Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk |

I don't think anyone disagrees. If the wins don't come, he should go. But let's see the year unfold and see if the wins come. Commentating on his future week to week is tiresome. |
