He claims it's implausible Patson didn't tell McKenzie. As noted on this thread by many, the victim had a lot to lose by doing so, she has been forced to resign by this matter
Beale is being thrown under the bus. No, he is being dealt for a very serious matter. Having his contract terminated would be completely reasonable given the offence.
Beale won't face a fair disciplinary hearing. How so? Unless he is going to be blamed for something he never did, which seems unlikely as even his manager has accepted the messages and that he sent them. As said, termination would be fair if he did it.
Ewen McKenzie is the problem. What evidence suggests he as a coach is a problem? His most recent Australian history suggests otherwise. Strongly. He is the most successful active super rugby coach from Australia in fact.
Reds were happy to see McKenzie go due to his close relationship with Patson. What evidence is there of this? The reds 2014 results would suggest otherwise that's for certain.
Players say she has assumed the role of an amateur psychologist. A nice vague statement attributed to nobody in particular. Rock solid facts there.
He says the Mowen appointment was unpopular. Wasn't too popular at the brumbies either and he left being considered one of Australian rugby's greatest leaders.
He notes Mowen had been drinking, but fails to mention the entire squad was allowed to drink at dinner and were expected to be home at a reasonable time. The ones suspended were those who failed to comply.
McKenzie is said to struggle with man management. Well I've covered that already.
Notes Cheika nurturing Beale's brilliance, but fails to mention McKenzie doing it when he was coach, Beale was 10 and the Waratahs came runners up.
As previously noted, a piece of shit article full of half truths and telling one side of the story.
