Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3243849, member: 9052"] I think people are overplaying Lockyer's role in the recruitment and retention. The way I think it probably works is probably along the lines of: Nolan: "Staggs' manager wants $700k for 4yr" Lockyer: "That seems a bit high for a center" Kev: "All good I see Staggs as a 6 anyway" Lockyer: "Is he really a 6 though Kev?" Kev: "Milf is out the door and I can make Staggs a 6" Lockyer: "He hasn't showed any ball playing or kicking game, and he's had limited experience at 6" Kev: "He's a strong runner, and allows me to have a right side of Staggs, Niu, Coates... we just need a strong game managing 7 inside him" Nolan: "Is that going to be Dearden or should we look at ARey?" .... etc. etc. etc. You can't just have the coach and the recruiter (Nolan) making all the decisions without some sort of independent voice to add some weight to the argument one way of the other. I think the CEO being there is next to useless, unless they just want to be across the decisions being made, because they end up being the last signature on the contract [/QUOTE]
