Which numbers specifically? Will do what I can from my phone.
Massive inclusions Kreuzer and JSOS. Players who just bleed for their teammates and the jumper (in no particular order)

Walsh is just a freak.
Murphy keeps on keeping on.
Gibbo has built his fitness up in such a short period of time. Since coming to the club he has left no stone unturned in a bid to successfully make the step up from VFL to AFL.

Round 6 - Top 5
Cripps - 32 - WOW!!!!
SPS - 22
Gibbons - 22
McGovern - 21 - impressive for a forward
Fisher - 21
Where is Dow, Walsh like in previous weeks. Walsh was very uncontested today and got a bit fumbly when pressured. 70% DE isn’t too bad but 17/27 disposals uncontested. SPS has a shocker with hitting targets today (60% DE) Bottom 6 on the ground which is massive considering last week he was equal 6th best at 88%.
Murphy went at 54% despite having 20/22 disposals uncontested. He does not cope when pressured with the ball.
How we can let Sicily have 27 disposals are having 3 in the first quarter. Plus letting omeara have 45. ****. We do need a tagged in the middle. Maybe the Murphy/O’Brien role like v hunter should of happened.
Kruezer got smacked after quarter time. Bolton was also out coached after quarter time too. Hawks players started hitting up short targets like they do. And just protected the ball. We should of gone 1-on-1 when we had the 31 point lead when defending.
Cripps was pretty well held throughout the hand and we got belted at clearances against the second worst team on the ground. And they had to beat us there because that’s where we get our ball. We need a plan B or C that helps us mix it up a bit.
Overall I thought the umpiring was pretty poor today. Eleni glouftis was poor as usual. She let bruest get around on the mark. But so did Plowman. She missed countless arm chops on McKay, levi and McGovern but paid similar frees the other way. Something is wrong when we constantly have to over come double free kicks against to win. 19-9 hawks game, 22-12 dogs, 20-13 GC. It’s not good enough.

Curnow - 16.8 km
Walsh - 16.1
Murphy - 15.9
Biggest difference was the hawks had the top 5 defensive players for speed. We had the top 5 attacking players for speed.
Hawks had a lot more sprint efforts than us. 204-158. Shows the ability to chase and tackle and pressure. It’s what won them the game.

Great analysis.
Pretty sure no club plays one v one anymore as it exposes the loose man very quickly
As for Bolton being out coached, elaborate on that for me, given we lead for most of the night, fell over 3 goals down and came storming home again
Bolton wasn't out coached, we lost some very important players and that caused us to fall down structurally. Only area we were out coached was with not dealing with O'Meara. Most weeks an opposition inside mid has a day out. The one week that didn't happen we won. Perhaps we don't have the cattle to man these types of players.
I felt our pressure wasn't overly great all day. I thought we locked it in our forward line on a number of occasions well. I thought our lack of pressure was overshadowed by our dominance with the ball. Once they started to get the footy we were exposed.
Walsh is a freak of a player. Need some of our other mids to reach AFL running standards. If you could put the ability to run 15km hard like seasoned players and Walsh do into guys like Stocher, Dow etc we'd be made.

Distance
Gibbons - 15.2 (best on for forward and defence coverage)

Casboult had 9 repeat sprint efforts second on the ground (behind Phillips)
We ran 10 km more than Collingwood approximately. Impressive despite the 6 day break (compared to 7).
Bring on GWS.
Bring on fairer/consistent umpiring
Club must rewatch 2018 v GWS for motivation
Bolton MUST address the umpiring if this continues. Other coaches do and it turns. Even Clarkson.

I dont think so.
The last thing he needs to do when the players are on the cusp, but need to find that little bit more, is to give them an out.
Yes Bolts has a right to complain but it would be counterproductive.

I dont know but I would like to see Bolts ask the umpires to clarify their decisions each game to see where we need to improve.
I believe that this would then imprint on the umpires that our team would like to learn from them so that they can improve.
Not a case of 'Please explain' but what did we do wrong here and what could we have done better.
Now you can say that the coaches already know the rules and should be able to do this by themselves. your right they could.
However, by working with the umpires we change their perception of our team and that would improve relations.
Also it could engender an improved level of respect between the players and the umps, as the players would be seeing the umps as 'coaches' rather than rule enforcers.
