Yes FrediK with the benefit of hindsight what you say has an undeniable logic, but at the time the decision was not solely based on dollars. The players were strongly behind Rhode and as he had coached with considerable success in SA he appeared a good bet.
Rather than just stand back and pointing to a problem I like to try and identify what went wrong so that we can be alert to it happenning again.
I think that the club learnt a lot from that appointment as evidenced by the process that was used to replace him.
I'd be interested to know where you thought the process of Rhodes' appointment was faulty.
