Did ok in SL, not a stand out prop by the way, done very well at the Chucks.

He appointed mcrae

I'll raise Jake's "He appointed McRae" with 'he seems to have displayed complete trust in Radford, from acting on his perceived whisperings regarding Gentle, to placing complete faith in him and other locals, to the exclusion of everyone else'. It's bizarre and smacks of Pearson being devoid of proper advisors which to me is the most worrying thing. I trust Pearson, but am seriously doubting he knows who to trust with regard to playing matters.

He'll do what needs to be done business-wise, but desperately needs an advisor that knows what he's doing and without any personal motivation. Swain? Kearney? Not as coaches, necessarily.

The conspiracy theorists are a law unto themselves on here....
Why not let the bollox persist, it'd be a shame for it to get in the way of the truth..

I agree, about AP being devoid of proper advisors, hence probably Radford's recommendation for DOR ,
was Motu Tony, as they were playing RU together.
