Yet Ratten didn't drop him either.skeptic wrote: ↑Sat 12 Oct 2019 11:24pmIt’s not so much confidence in Ratten’s ability but rather further reflecting on just how bad his predecessor really was. The story of Newnes’ actually having to drop himself was somewhat glossed over here by the notion of how mature Jack was and his integrity. But it was yet another example of how literally everybody other than Richo could see the glaringly obvious

Re: Jack Newnes
Don't get me wrong, my fingers are crossed too. But Beveridge was part of the clean air. There seems to be an assumption that Ratten didn't have much input last season. I'm not so sure.Ghost Like wrote: ↑Sun 13 Oct 2019 8:06amIt stems from the same place Western Bulldog supporters drew confidence from when Beveridge took over from McCartney. Fingers crossed with similar results.
