The Wallabies were "actually okay" for a while too after John O'Neill hollowed out and culled the rugby grassroots coaching and development programs.
In a basket case NRL club, Raelene Castle doesn't take all the blame but has to take a chunk of it as CEO. They made some terrible signings. The Bulldogs bought their contender status with big back-ended contracts that hit the stink phase by the time she had to depart. The numbers never added up.
In her own words Castle flunked accounting and switched to a career in "marketing and communications".
Just the ticket for the ARU.
But at least she's not Pulver. Problem is, Clyne is still there. The whole board still needs a clean out.
