    That was his objective? What about the performance of of the Tahs on the field and Tahs HQ?

    One might say that was a fairly modest objective but in all probability he was the only one in the 'Tahs leadership group to have actually achieved a KPI.

    Why should a Reds supporter have such a positive interest in Waratahs board members? Surely the last thing you want is an efficient Waratahs machine?

    Growden describes the Waratahs as being in "sudden disarray" at Ed's departure.

    Couldn't find enough champagne glasses for everyone? No party pies in the fridge? Ed took all the spare staples when he left?

    This is just GG blowing with the wind. For weeks he's been talking down the Tahs head office (deservedly so) as being in total disarray. Now he talks of sudden disarray as though he doesn't know what he has been writing about for weeks. He's trying to say he's surprised so that he can deny that his stories have had any impact on what has happened. Its the usual self-serving crap we have come to expect.

    Truth is the disarray is not sudden and he's been writing about it for weeks. A couple more incidents of hari-kiri and a lot of that disarray will start to look like a brand new start, which everyone knows is what the Tahs badly need.

    let's give some credit here: whatever we think of Scoop Growden, if this is the consequence of his latest mission then he deserves to be congratulated for forcing the tahs board into some changes. resuming normal transmission.

    However right after Tahs get their head office in order I would like someone to move GG right along so he is never heard from again. Maybe it is because he recognises the shambles in his own work that he writes so fervently about it at the Tahs.

    Interesting variation in tone between the two sydney papers

    The Terror
    and

    SMH

    So one paper sees it as a sort of positive move to solve a problem and the other as a disaster and guys running away.

    That would be the second time that Foley has been relegated to support coach after not being up to the head coach job. Happened in Bath after Connolly came back in.

    The Foley speculation has to stop, if the guy is talking to the force when he is on a three year contract with the Tahs he should be booted out the door. After the year the Tahs have had anything less than total commitment is a disaster.

    Growden got his man, so so smug to claim it as a surprise.

    Are you suggesting that Gaffney's coaching of the backline wasn't the one shining light in a terrible season for the Tahs?

    Anyone who is seriously suggesting Gaffney should get a promotion should be forced to re-watch that home game against the Brumbies this year, Clockwork Orange-style.
