What a bloody string of wins lads how good is this?

How bloody good was the reaction of fans to Bolton walking of the ground?

Summer and Lamb seem to be having an increased impact each week, very promising

You should have heard the roar at the post game in the social club.

The good news, Levi hasn't done an ACL. The bad news, Bolts did say probably 6-8 weeks but didn't elaborate on the injury.

It's good to get a nice string of wins in a row. I could go a lot more in depth but I'm still pretty pumped from the game.

Last time you had a run like this Simpson was playing his 150th, bit of irony there mate.  ;)
Never really doubted Bolton's ability to turn things around and begin to improve but he's more
than surpassed what I expected in his 1st season at the helm. Not surprised the Blues faithful
haven fallen in love with him, how could you not be.

So this Bryce Gibbs bloke is a star. I've been laughed at for years by my mates who reckon he's a dud. Who's laughing now!

This week will be a real test, assuming Jacobs goes to him over Marc.

Just continuing his apprenticeship, we'll take him back at hawthorn when Clarko retires!

Hopefully he does, so Murphy goes alright for me in SC ;D

Jaksch will have an opportunity to take up a key forward post with Levi out for a while. I think with the Roos tall forward line we will need to play Rowe back, even if Weitering is good to go. Rowe probably follows Ben Brown around for the whole game and goes into the ruck when he does.

Watched the Carlton doco "the journey" tonight, not sure if you guys have seen it, worth a watch though

All I can say is that Bolton is a very impressive character. Definitely the right man for the job

Mat0369

I saw it during the preseason when it first aired. I was a huge fan of Bolton before we signed him but the doco just reaffirmed my opinion. 

He's building them as men while building them as players. Weitering's demeanor in the doco was also really impressive, he just oozes leadership.

There's going to be a second part released I think on the bye week.

RiOtChEsS

Yep same, i like the way he is approaching the "culture rebuild" look forward to part 2

So maybe Rowe?

fanTCfool

Surely we revert to Wood again? Can't afford to have Rowe out of the backline against North, they have so many options.

As a side note, I really hope we don't rush Weits back this week, for the greater good!
