    ARU high performance boss Ben Whitaker plays down ‘summit’ talk

    http://www.foxsports.com.au/rugby/ar...63768688eb14bd

    This bloke has tickets on himself.

    Ben Whitaker ARU High Performance Director since 2009. 17 Years and has achieved?????????????

    In his time the standard of Rugby in this country has spiralled downwards.

    Now he is saying that he doesn't need a summit just a quick meeting.

    He should resign just like the rest of the ARU Board and management.

    He's got the typical myopic attitude you'd expect from an ARU employee in a cosy job with no KPI's to judge him on. Alan Jones would have a field day!

    Different Ben Whittaker. He went to France after his suspensions playing in Premier Grade. Not sure where he is now and he is not worth the time to google.

    This Ben Whitaker has been who has helped Mr Sinderberry build our current football department and squad.

    different. This guy is former Wallaby reserve Chris Whittaker's brother. And from all reports he should also be left sitting on the bench.
