The main difference between both roles is that McRae would focus on game day strategies, preparation and oppo analysis. He would spend more time involved in the “ for the now “ stuff.
A director of coaching spends more time planning on the development of individuals and maps out customised programs in conjunction with support staff. I would see Bolton working more closely with the coaching assistants than the senior coach. Bolton and co ( including high performance, player welfare and medical staff ) would prepare the individuals development programs. Once these programs have been rolled out, they are then reviewed regularly for progress, achieving KPIs and updating.
Simplistically, McRae is in charge of winning and Bolton is in charge of developing the cattle to win with. |

Give him a break, he was on a hidiing to nothing at Caaaaarlton, look at how they have now treated Teague, like shit. I used to call Bolts "laughing gas" cos he always seemed to be laughing, just a real happy guy. Hes very experienced, and has served apprenticeships, he will be great with out kids, and Leppa is real bonus, very long apprenticeship, senior Coach himself, knows the modern game inside out, great knowledge. Yeh, im very happy camper with these new appointments.

I'm sure it all looks good on a box diagram. Just hope we don't end up with our footy department being over managed. Hopefully, it works as seamlessly as you've outlined. |

I read somewhere recently how part of the Storm's success is that Bellamy as coach is purely focused on match day coaching and another bloke in charge of medium to longer term strategy.
It looks to me like Fly and the club have created roles around Leppa and Bolts to focus on their strengths so with all 3 comfortable with their roles and how they inter-relate, there's every reason to think it should work successfully.

Fly looks the cooler trendier kid, Leppa the IDGAF and Bolton a dork. Completely irrelevant so long as they coach the house down!

I’m pretty pumped for this. I think Mr Wright has got it right! For once the foundations are there.

Working with the HFC on the Kennedy Community Centre development at Dingley and my contact on the project is very sad to see both McRae and Bolts depart. Both very well regarded in their roles and as people. |
