McMahon is your Pocock.
That is you recruited him young, and he will shape the standards of your club as he grows into a leadership position. You just need to hold onto him and the other young players you recruit to build a culture, so that you can continually add to your squad each season.
If you continually cleanout the side and keep looking for ready made super 15 players, then it will be a difficult job for any coach.
holding on to our better players and prospects is the problem that the Rebels face. without either a great program or a winning franchise it becomes difficult and a self fulfilling circle of underperformance.
