Certainly sounds like Bolton has eased back a bit with the players over the off season. Numerous interviews with players suggest this has been a good thing for everyone. Even in a recent article Bolton admitted his people management at times could have been much better. I like the sound of his progress recently in developing strong relationships. Hopefully this continues throughout 2019.
Goodwill only lasts for so long and extended honeymoons don't endure forever - nor should they. Losing Neil after Trigg was tapped on the shoulder didn't help. Bolton has all the young talent any coach could wish for - just not enough developed stars - hopefully his 2019 game plan is matched to the players he has got - rather than the players he left behind at Hawthorn.
