If the above article is correct - and on these matters Wayne Smith tends to have very good sources - it is beyond extraordinary that the QRU board could commission an 'independent report' into the entire functioning of the Reds' HPU and then find via said report that the HPU and RG's coaching methods are 'dysfunctional' - all after 2 disastrous seasons, the QC (Quade Cooper) 'bitter goodbye', deeply disillusioned players, etc - and then proceed to not communicate with the public re the report (as they promised they would) and further, to reappoint RG.
If all this occurs, it points conclusively to what a number of us here have speculated: namely, that the QRU is an organisation gripped by a highly self-destructive combination of severe delusion, arrogance, incompetence, old-boy-network-introversion, and wholly unjustified self-importance.
If so, the consequences for all of Australian rugby will be extremely serious.
Let us hope sense returns at the brink, the stakes are very high.
