Quote: Wollagong Way "I think it's easy to dismiss this notion that McRea wasn't a good coah because he didn't win anything with us. However what he did do is merge two teams into one and started in motion what we later achieved (and should have built on since). He did this while advocating the playing of some great Rugby, in my view we were a joy to watch particulary with the like of Best, Smith, Panther, Prescott and Grimaldi / Maher(sp).
I loved top watch that side play and was genuinly entertained....even when we lost....unlike now!'"
Hall reminds me of Best at times - his strengths and frailties
